Hamilton Vote Could Be Monday 11/16
November 14, 2009
Please read below. Then–
1. Visit http://ciafax.ning.com/ and request to send the Hamilton Confirmation FAX in your name to your two state Senators. It’s free!
2. Call the 17 Senators listed below and ask them to vote AGAINST the confirmation of Judge David Hamilton.
FROM WND:
Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) said in a floor statement Monday that he will likely file a procedural motion to clear the nomination of David Hamilton, an Indiana native nominated to serve on the 7th Circuit Court of Appeals. You may remember Hamilton as the Judge who ruled it’s illegal to pray “in Jesus name” but totally legal to pray to Allah on the floor of the Indiana Legislature. His foolish ruling in Hinrichs v. Bosma was overturned (thanks in part to our legal aid to the Indiana Attorney General). He also ruled to hasten the abortion of unborn children, but that bad ruling was also overturned. Now Obama wants to reward Hamilton’s anti-life anti-Jesus prejudice with promotion to the same appeals court that overruled him.
Senator Jeff Sessions (R-AL) wrote a letter to all Republicans on 30 Oct, asking for help in opposing Hamilton, who the Seventh Circuit Court rebuked for repeatedly “abusing his discretion,” and for a speech Hamilton gave saying the judge’s primary job is “write footnotes in the Constitution” for his own activist causes.
To stop Hamilton, we need 40 strong Senate votes to stand with Senator Inhofe, to uphold his filibuster. If we fail, Hamilton will be promoted to the 7th Circuit Court of Appeals, the same court that overruled his aggressive, anti-life, anti-liberty decisions for years. So we’ve identified 17 key undecided Senators, from which we need just 7 votes to successfully defeat Hamilton’s nomination, (see list below).
We have carefully identified 17 undecided Senators, who should especially receive your phone calls in the coming days.
WE MUST TAKE ACTION TODAY. PLEASE MAKE 17 PHONE CALLS TODAY THROUGH MONDAY to each of the undecided Senate votes here, asking EACH to oppose and filibuster Judge David Hamilton:
Ben Nelson, D-NE 202-224-6551
George Voinovich, R-OH 202-224-3353
Bill Nelson, D-FL 202-224-5274
Judd Gregg, R-NH 202-224-3324
Kay Hagan, D-NC 202-224-6342
Richard Lugar, R-IN 202-224-4814
Mark Pryor, D-AR 202-224-2353
Olympia Snowe, R-ME 202-224-5344
Blanche Lincoln, D-AR 202-224-4843
Susan Collins, R-ME 202-224-2523
Chris Dodd, D-CT 202-224-2823
Kit Bond, R-MO 202-224-5721
Barbara Boxer, D-CA 202-224-3553
Kirsten Gillibrand, D-NY 202-224-4451
Michael Bennet, D-CO 202-224-5852
Roland Burris, D-IL 202-224-2854
Byron Dorgan, D-ND 202-224-2551
Judge Hamilton is the worst of Obama’s 15 new liberal appeals court appointees. The 7th Circuit Court of Appeals covers Wisconsin, Indiana and Illinois. Since most cases never reach the Supreme Court, the federal appellate circuits often provide the last word on cases affecting life and liberty.
