who's the alternative

Because they don't actually care about out rights.  Which is why I won't give them a penny.

Agreed. They haven't impressed me lately. Shame

On my phone so I could be missing it but I only see $78 in 2012 to Claire from the NRA and $15k from another group?

That is what I see as well.  ALL the others have this notation "independent expenditure opposing Claire McCaskill (D)".

THAT means they spent that amount AGAINST her.

That's how I'm taking it.  The other group is the American Hunters and Shooters Association, which is a group supporting gun control.  The data page is a little confusing on first glance (and my second as well).

This is how I read it as well...

prob $78 on postage telling her she is a cunt

Boom for the win!

Sorry, but that's too nice of a name for her.

All of that money was spent in OPPOSITION to her (except for $78, and who the hell knows what that was about).  

I think a thread title change is in order.

I approve of this message.



 

She said this was her last term . I am expecting her to run for your Governor HA HA HA

God damnit the lying two faced bitch sent this .....


You deserve transparency from your government

This past weekend, the Senate brought a controversial $1 trillion spending bill up for a vote, and like all legislation that comes across my desk, I strongly considered the impact this bill would have on Missouri's families.

It was with that concern in mind that I voted against this spending package and the secretive, last-minute provisions it included.

For me, this kind of bill just isn't the way to govern.

While the funding did include important provisions for causes I support - like a boost to the E/A-18 Growler production line, critical for airborne electronic attack, and certainty for our military and veterans - it lacked the very basic transparency you deserve from your government.

Added to this spending bill - with little-to-no public debate - was a provision that will further open the floodgates for big money in our elections, by allowing for a huge increase in the amount of political contributions that wealthy individuals can make toward political parties. We should be working to limit money in politics, not giving millionaires and billionaires even more influence over our politics.

The bill also included a secretive provision that could allow for a process by which the pensions of millions of retirees across the country could be dramatically reduced - and one that could once again find taxpayers bailing out Wall Street's bad bets - as we were forced to do when the financial crisis hit in 2008. That's not a gamble I was willing to make, especially at the expense of hardworking Missourians.

I remain firmly committed to a transparent and accountable government, and what I saw last weekend didn't represent those values you sent me here to uphold.

I have had two political poll calls this week asking about Claire the Rascal.  Needless to say, I do not have anything good to say about her, Roy Blunt, or Chris Koster.  Jury still out on Kristen <Something?> and Tim <Something else?>.

Read the link in the OP until you notice that that amount is what they spent OPPOSING anti-gun senator Claire McCaskill.

Do you feel stupid now? Because you should.
