mnealtx 0 #2 April 15, 2012 Snips from Daily Caller, regarding Florida's law and others: QuoteOne Democrat, Fort Lauderdale state Sen. Mandy Dawson, missed the vote. But the rest of the Senate chamber supported it, 39-0. The Florida House vote was 92-20. Twelve Democrats voted in favor. And of the 15 states that have passed variations of the law since 2005, the year Florida’s model legislation became law, eight — a majority — had Democratic governors when the laws were enacted. None issued a veto. Democratic governors who signed “stand your ground” bills, or otherwise permitted them to become law, include Kathleen Blanco of Louisiana, Jennifer Granholm of Michigan, Brian Schweitzer of Montana, John Lynch of New Hampshire, Brad Henry of Oklahoma, Phil Bredesen of Tennessee, Joe Manchin of West Virginia and Janet Napolitano of Arizona – now the U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security. The bills in Louisiana and West Virginia passed with Democratic control of both houses in the states’ legislatures, in 2006 and 2008, respectively. My GOD, what an insidious Republican plot!!!

tkhayes 348 #4 April 15, 2012 it's not exclusively conservative nor democrat. ALEC is just another way for the citizens to NOT have a voice and for the lawmakers to be controlled and coerced by the corporations. Any politician that participates in ALEC should have full transparency to the public of what goes on inside. The citizens elect them and they should answer to us and us only. Secret stuff like ALEC should never be allowed. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
