I just got this from Mr Warner and noticed a new sentence or two, He now states to be a staunch supporter of the 2nd amendment etc: His record is good I will admit but not for appointing judges,AG"s State Department lawyers, And I will bet he approves Miss Sotomayer without a second thought to 80 million gun owners.


Thank you for contacting me about the nomination of Judge Sonia Sotomayor to serve on the United States Supreme Court.
On May 26, 2009 President Obama nominated Judge Sotomayor, who currently sits on the Second Circuit Court of Appeals, to fill the seat being vacated by Justice David Souter. Her nomination was referred to the Senate Judiciary Committee where hearings have been held and a vote on her nomination is expected soon. Judge Sotomayor has an extraordinary personal story and very impressive legal credentials. During the Judiciary Committee hearings held over four days, Judge Sotomayor illustrated that she will be a fair and impartial Supreme Court Justice. Sotomayor's position on Second Amendment rights. In her testimony before the committee, Judge Sotomayor gave no indication that she questions the Supreme Court's decision in District of Columbia v. Heller that the Second Amendment protects an individual right to keep and bear arms and specifically noted that she considers this settled law. As you know, I am a strong proponent of Second Amendment rights and will continue to support these rights as your U.S. Senator. again, thank you for your input and as we move forward in the 111th Congress please continue to be in touch with your opinions and concerns.




Sincerely,
MARK R. WARNER
United States Senator

He must have been asleep when Sotomayor was asked questions about the 2nd amendment. :roll:

And then he was out to lunch when she told Harkin that self defense borders on vigilanteism, It;s strike tree if he does vote for her, Webb is probably gonna cave to , he has on the others ,,Only he;s a bit more subtle in his method,, Don;t say squat and surprise em.

As I told them all in a previous letter -- "Your promises mean nothing to me. Show me your sincerity with actions."
No more catchy slogans for me...I am simply fed up...4...four...4...2+2...

I received that same one the other day, I deleted it though because it wasn't worth the electrons that trasmitted it. Got one from Webb that was similar, it went the way of Warners.

I got a response from both (actually a double of Webb's, too) Senators concerning the health care reform.
Warner's generated response did say he was against single payer health care, but was for a comprehensive reform.
Doesn't do him near enough to put him near the good side, but atleast we can hope he votes against it.

I'm still waiting to get a personalized response from one of them. Probably never happen.
