Instantly opening a rift among New York state Democrats, Rep. Kirsten Gillibrand...was appointed on Friday to the Senate seat left vacant by Hillary Rodham Clinton...Before the governor even took the podium to introduce Gillibrand, anti-gun crusader Rep. Carolyn McCarthy said she would challenge Gillibrand in the Democratic primary next year, or find someone who would. Gillibrand has a 100 percent voting record with the National Rifle Association.
McCarthy...said someone with such a record should not be the next senator from New York.
“The majority of New Yorkers believe in trying to reduce gun violence,” she said.
Her complaint was echoed by New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg...one of the nation’s most vocal gun-control advocates. |

A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects. — Robert Heinlein |
