Patrick Henry

 He has voted to undermine American Sovereignty by granting consulting rights to Mexico concerning the erection of a southern border fence

 He has a consistent pattern of shocking verbal abuse of Senate colleagues who oppose his bills.

 He has exercised extremely poor judgment by intervening with the federal regulators on behalf of Keating in the Savings and Loan Crisis of the 1980s.

 He sponsored and voted for a 282% tax increase on cigarettes that also would have increased the size of the federal bureaucracy exponentially.

 He supports raising Social Security taxes.

 He has promoted the granting of the unconstitutional line-item veto power to the president that tramples the constitutional separation of powers.

 He has undermined the Republican Party and opposed the constitutional duties of the vice president to break a tie on judicial nominations.

 He has demonstrated consistent leadership to undermine second amendment rights by his promotion of bills that regulate all sales at gun shows; that force gun-owners to purchase trigger locks making their firearms useless for self-defense; that restrict the legitimate transfer of firearms over the internet; and that extend the restrictions of the Brady bill to pawn shops and gun repair shops.

 He has voted to use taxpayer funds to harvest stem cells from human embryos.

 He has refused to take immediate and direct action to protect the life of the unborn; he opposes the repeal of Roe v. Wade; and by opposing a constitutional amendment to protect all human life.

THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Republican Party of Milwaukee County [branch omitted] opposes any effort to promote, support, or endorse Senator John McCain as the Republican nominee, and

RESOLVED that the Republican Party of Milwaukee County [branch omitted] will only support candidates who promote the philosophy and principles of conservatism in government, and promote Liberty, Prosperity and Individual freedom, and whom have consistently demonstrated a record of public service as evidence of their principled beliefs.
