The Anatomy of Pat Toomey's Calculated Treason (and how the NRA with a wink and a nod is going to help him get away with it.)

NRA ally Pat Toomey’s gun control moment.
Sen. Pat Toomey (R-Pa.) rose to prominence as a conservative firebrand: He ran to the right of then-Republican Sen. Arlen Specter in a 2004 primary, headed the Club for Growth and has an “A” rating from the National Rifle Association, which spent almost $1.5 million getting him elected in 2010.
Now he’s emerged as the possible savior of gun control efforts in Congress, calling expanded background checks a matter of common sense during a news conference Wednesday with his Democratic ally, West Virginia Sen. Joe Manchin. . .
Pennsylvania GOP Chairman Rob Gleason released a statement Wednesday afternoon saying that Toomey “has our support to protect Pennsylvanians’ constitutional rights” on ownership.
“Obviously, there will be some people who are upset about any kind of new regulation, but Sen. Toomey’s argument is one that I happen to believe — this isn’t gun control; this is expanding background checks,” Zaborney said. . .
Still, as Rendell pointed out, it’s unlikely that the NRA will abandon him over the background checks compromise.
“There’s no way the NRA will support a Democrat,” he said. “The NRA can voice its displeasure and disagreement, but in the end, the NRA will stick with Pat Toomey over any Democrat.”
Remember that we know that the NRA has "been consulted" all along in Toomey's "negotiations." They must think -- and have given Toomey reason to think -- that they have to give up something, which has always been a featured excuse of NRA crawfishing throughout history. The thing is, did NRA tell him he would lose his "A" rating? Did they tell him they would back an opponent in the primary three years hence? I doubt it.

So I see that the other side also controls the GOP of Pennsylvania and not just Ohio. Well that's it for Pennsylvania, if you don't retake control of that party there, there will be no protection from these bastards.

Then there is the National GOP, who have also been penetrated to the extent that in every issue brought before it, it seeks to loose instead of win.

Now why would they do that?

NYC Mayor Michael Bloomberg's anti-Second Amendment group Mayors Against Illegal Guns announced they will quit running attack ads against Senator Pat Toomey (R-PA) now that he's seen the light on background checks

Sold us all out....

"To Protect And Serve - (Those We Deem Worthy)"

This will get the last of the dead asses up off the couch and bitchin to their representatives.... (You know who you are)

Hmmm is that the goal of allowing the bill to deliberation?

This shit in the news everyday nauseates me to no end. Simply said... The constitution was signed and ratified by the states due to the bill of rights... The States/peoples consent and the legitimacy of the Federal government is violated and is not even recognized as "in question" in the media. That says it all.

The federal govt. does not have the authority to change the terms and conditions agreed to between the states allowing the federal govt. to be created... This is the "compact" between the States

Forget the bullshit about magazine capacity, background checks and the rest of it. The issue is the Federal government has no authority to alter or infringe on the very stipulations (Bill of rights)the States agreed to that enabled the hand over of enumerated power from the States to the federal govt.

All of these bastards took a solemn oath to "preserve and protect" the constitution. This is not preserving or protecting.

This oath is a "Compact" with the people.

Time for impeachment of both elected and appointed oath breakers. Our "Compact" with State elected officials is broken, and our State "Compact" is broken.

Ya I can see republican politicians wanting this ratcheted up just shy of civil unrest, and sadly the democrats want it to plow past "Just shy" and go straight to civil unrest so they can garner public opinion and release the Kracken... Sorry to swear fellow Patriots, but we are fucked...

A Sumter event we have no choice on whether or not to support. sneaky bastards

This is just one more slide down the slippery slope of tyranny. Chicken shit RINOs that have a wet noddle for a spine at best, or at worst are complicit or uninformed. All of the above are unforgivable. There can be no "compromise" on an issue of principle like this. It's like someone coming up to you and saying they are going to fully molest your mother and as you object they work to negotiate their heinous act down to mere fondling. NO! None of the above is okay! The principle stands - keep your hands off my rights - period!

Allegory, how do you propose that these treasonous bastards be impeached? You realize that each and every Democrat must go, no exceptions! Dozens of RINO's must go too!! Not just the ones who vote away our gun rights, but each and every one that voted away our liberty at any point in the last 45 years!

For that matter, save for possibly Rand Paul (jury still out), all of the politicians, all of the monkeys in robes, and all of the bureaucrats need to be crammed into conex containers and dropped overboard in the middle of the North Atlantic!

I'd say a bullet to the head for all of them, but that would be a good waste of lead better applied elsewhere.

And don't think that state politicians are any less worthy of an express elevator ride to hell.

America needs a good house-cleaning, immediately. But I doubt that there are 10,000 patriots hardcore enough to get to the business of counting coup this very minute. I'm still healing from a line-of-duty injury, otherwise I'd start by counting myself.

If you know anyone who wears a badge, aside from your local Sheriff or deputy, now would be the best time for them to make final preps and turn in their badge. I can speak as a former badge-wearer, more cops who prep are on our side than you can possibly know... and a hefty percentage are preppers and you just don't know it. But most cops work for a boss who is unelected & whose allegiance to the domestic enemies of liberty, and that makes these cops a target once the SHTF.

But make no mistake, there are whole armies of badge-wearing, oath-breaking, jackbooted thugs out there who would just assume kill you as send you to a detention camp!

I got out because as a recently quit insider, I finally confirmed for myself that DHS is about to assume control over all custody facilities nationwide: prisons-jails-etc, even correctional boot camps and correctional facilities on military bases. I just got word that the 'next big false-flag' will be the justification for the complete nationalization of all police. The marxists in this country have had a hard-on for a national police force composed strictly of like-minded, some possibly culled from the ranks of SEIU thugs.

At this point, the only thing that I think is gonna save us from a repeat of our current situation, within a couple years of winning the war; is to seize membership rolls, registration lists, and any other documentation that will allow us to ID and remove/punish every collectivist puke down to the neighborhood idiot.

Americans are slow to anger and slow to put off tyranny, but we have not YET done what should have been done DECADES AGO!! We have falsely assumed the ballot box would be our unfailing palladium of liberty, but the collectivists have been busy behind closed doors! First, they ran their ringers on both sides of an election, then when other parties such as Libertarians popped up, they suppressed these parties with tyrannical ballot-access laws. Then they started rigging entire elections with collusion from the infiltrated media, VNS, and bogus punch-card stacks (remember the jokes about hanging chads?).... Finally, the development of the internet, along with computerized touchscreen voting machines and proprietary software not subject to audit, made it possible for the globalists to seamlessly rig entire elections without fail or evidentiary trails. I know this much to be true because I have personally witnessed the crime, more than once in fact! (Nobody listened; "It can't happen here in America!")

I'll say one last thing: don't do this, don't kill'em all right now while you still have a chance, and the resulting tyranny will destroy any chance future generations might have of ever even hoping to be free...

Liberty, once lost, will be lost forever!

III to the end;
Armed till my cold dead fingers are broken!

You know, anyone who posts here and explicitly talks about "putting a bullet in the head" of - whoever - is either too fucking stupid to take seriously or a goddamn government agent provocateur trying to dupe others into making comments that can be used against them.
Some advice:
If you're a government snoop trying to stir up shit - know that you're playing for the wrong team. How you personally come to that realization may - or may not - be a choice of free will. The future is fluid.
If you're simply a dumbass given to making explicit online death threats, do yourself a favor and learn the art of nuance. Getting benched before the game starts is a net gain of zero. Keep this in mind while the established pretense of civility is still in effect.

BOTH parties want BIG gov't. They only differ on how to get there. Dems want it NOW, like little children are wont to do. The mossbacks in the GOP want it slower but still want it.

We are being betrayed from within.

Anon@5:02pm, your chickenshit comment illustrates just exactly how lily-livered you are. I posted anonymously here because obviously I want to express my genuine rage at what's happening to America without, as you put it, 'getting benched before the game'. But the game has already begun and fucktards like you refuse to get off the goddamn bench!!

Ain't no government troll here, numbnuts, or did you miss the part where I said I resigned my cozy gov paycheck?? And I'm not trolling for comments, I'm just saying what needs to be said! I wasn't asking for your opinion!

BTW You are an idiot if you don't realize that if EVERYONE who claims to be a III'er insists on waiting till there is a clarion call to arms, then NO ONE will stand and deliver! Or did you not notice that Americans are the frog in the pot, and that these traitors are carefully going forward with the deliberate goal of boiling us all as slowly as possible to insure that the 'revolution' you all claim to be prepping for, never coalesces in time to counter the .gov arms buildup? In the meantime, they slowly collapse the economy so people are forced into a survival mode and thus are prevented from properly organizing, etc., because they're too busy trying to obtain their daily bread?

I'm not calling for anyone to go off and do something stupid, alone, or even in some small splinter cell... that would be fucking idiotic!! And, stop trying to put words in my mouth!

WHAT I AM SAYING, you chickenshit coward, Anon, is that (collectively) everyone who chafes at the growing totalitarianism had better start organizing at the national and state levels both politically & militarily, and stop fucking around with some people's dumbass notions of 'valiant leaderless resistance', which will be as much of a failure as the 'leaderless resistance' of the Occupy Wall Street libtards!

I am in my late 40's and I've honestly never understood how so many people all over the country, many whom I have met and even more that I have only conversed with online, can be so vociferously critical of the outright communism growing in the USA and yet be so incredibly inert! This is something that I have observed for decades, and still people make excuses for not acting.

Patriots should have gotten down to business YEARS AGO, and I am rapidly coming to the conclusion that there is NO level of tyranny too great for you to accept, and that all your talk is just so much hot air. So you go right fucking ahead and sit there with your thumb up your ass, mr. anon @5:02, and if the hot lead starts flying anytime soon (within the next 10 years), I'll publicly apologize under my real name! But until then, I am losing my patience with a movement that either makes excuses for not doing a man's job, or by setting the trigger for action so high that it conveniently removes any mandate to act against the tyrants in one's lifetime.

Has everyone forgotten Lord Acton's dictum that evil triumphs when good men do NOTHING?

I'm sick of people sitting on their thumbs doing nothing! Be done with it already!!

Still III to the day I die,
Even if it's from disgust at the inaction!
