Senate’s Most Anti-gun Republican in Trouble in Indiana: It’s about time!

May 7, 2012
The political world is about to experience a major shakeup in Indiana.
The most anti-gun Republican in the U.S. Senate, Dick Lugar, recently fell ten points behind in the polls to 100% gun rights supporter Richard Mourdock.
For more than a year, GOA has broadcast Lugar’s gun-hating record throughout the state, highlighting why the 36-year incumbent is Obama’s favorite Republican.
Lugar voted for all of Obama’s anti-gun nominees, including Supreme Court Justices Sonia Sotomayor and Elena Kagan, and Attorney General Eric Holder – none of whom believe that the Second Amendment protects an individual right.
He supports a ban on semi-automatic firearms, and waiting periods for handgun purchases. Lugar also supports an international, UN small arms treaty that will undermine U.S. sovereignty and the Second Amendment.
Mourdock, the current State Treasurer, has Lugar on the ropes in the May 8 election. In fact, Lugar is so desperate he’s even pleading with Democrats and Independents to cross over and vote in the Republican primary this coming Tuesday.
Gun Owners of America is reaching out to as many Indiana gun owners as possible to make sure they have the facts about Obama’s favorite Republican.

Indiana Senate Race Critical to Gun Owners and Second Amendment

May 1, 2012
We are one week away from the Indiana Primary Election and the possible election of one of GOA’s top target candidates, Richard Mourdock, and the defeat of Barrack Obama‘s favorite Republican Senator Richard Lugar.
Lugar is so liberal he can’t even be called a RINO — Republican In Name Only. He’s been a disaster on the gun issue, voting to destroy the Second Amendment so many times in his thirty-five years as a Senator, it would take a book to chronicle his bad votes.
He may as well be caucusing with Harry Reid and the Democrats because he follows their lead on most issues.
GOA-endorsed Indiana State Treasurer Richard Mourdock is a staunch supporter of the Second Amendment and IF WE CAN GET HIM ELECTED IN THIS PRIMARY, HE SHOULD BE THE NEW SENATOR AFTER NOVEMBER!!
If you live outside of Indiana, please go to the Mourdock website and make a donation NOW. That’s www.richardmourdock.com.
Thank you.
Sincerely,

Lugar “Obama’s favorite Republican.”

February 8, 2012

 

Obama‘s Favorite Republican
Dear Second Amendment Supporter,
We told you about the most anti-gun Republican in the U.S. Senate, Dick Lugar of Indiana.
MSNBC calls Lugar “Obama’s favorite Republican.”
And it’s no wonder; Lugar voted for Obama’s anti-gun Supreme Court nominees, and both the President and the Senator support banning guns.
But don’t take our word for it – listen to what Lugar said when he was running for president in 1996 about his support for the Clinton gun ban.
In this YouTube video, Lugar brags about his vote and implies that supporters of the Second Amendment lack “common sense.” The year the so-call “assault weapons” ban passed, Lugar also received a contribution from leftist George Soros.
Even worse, Lugar supports the global, UN small arms treaty. And if Republicans take back control of the Senate – which is likely in 2012 – Lugar will become chairman of the Foreign Relations Committee. You can bet Lugar will pull out all the stops to cram that treaty through the Senate.
Thankfully, this year we have a tremendous opportunity to defeat Lugar.
Richard Mourdock, Indiana’s current State Treasurer, is battling Obama’s favorite Republican in the state’s May 8th Republican primary.
Mourdock is a genuine gun rights supporter. He will oppose the anti-gun agendas of Obama, the UN, and the leaders of either political party. Richard Mourdock has the pro-gun community and grassroots conservatives on his side.
Where Lugar has an advantage is in money, which is pouring in from his liberal allies across the country. In fact, he is already up on TV misleading voters about his record, and he will stay on the air through the primary.
But if gun owners and sportsmen from across the country all chip in a few bucks, while we might not be able to out raise Lugar, we can ensure that Mourdock will have enough to get his message out to the voters.
So check out this 31-second commercial, and then please visit www.richardmourdock.com and click the “Donate Now” button.
Working together, we can send Lugar packing, before he does even more damage to our gun rights.
Thank you for standing with GOA, and for your support of Richard Mourdock.
Sincerely,
Tim Macy
Vice Chairman
