Throw Kirk out! Here’s why

By:  Diane Benjamin

This list could be much longer, but I will keep it short.

Mark Kirk is more likely to vote with Democrats than he is to support the Republican platform.  If he is the GOP candidate for the US Senate – He WILL lose.  When there is very little difference between the two candidates, the Democrat wins every time.

Here’s a few reason why Mark needs to be sent packing in the primary:

He voted for the Omnibus Spending Bill, to spend another $1.1 Trillion we don’t have.  Democrats loved this spending bill, it does nothing to stop the mounting debt, de-fund ObamaCare, stop illegal immigration, or de-fund Planned Parenthood.   http://www.heritage.org/research/reports/2015/12/omnibus-statement

The U.S. Senate voted 54-45 to punish “sanctuary cities,”  Kirk voted No.  http://illinoisreview.typepad.com/illinoisreview/2015/10/lone-republican-mark-kirk-votes-to-preserve-sanctuary-cities.html

Kirk voted with the Democrats to confirm an anti-gun Surgeon General  http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2014/12/16/kirk-abandons-nra-second-amendment-joins-dems-to-confirm-anti-gun-surgeon-general/

Kirk blocked efforts to de-fund Planned Parenthood  http://thehill.com/blogs/ballot-box/250140-senate-shoots-down-measure-to-defund-planned-parenthood

Only 10 Senate GOP members voted to confirm Loretta Lynch as Attorney General.  Kirk was one of them http://www.theblaze.com/stories/2015/04/23/loretta-lynch-confirmed-as-new-attorney-general-here-are-the-10-republicans-who-voted-for-her/?utm_source=facebook&utm_medium=story&utm_campaign=ShareButtons

Kirk supported raising the debt ceiling and the minimum wage.  He also barely won his last election against Alexi Giannoulias.     http://www.newsmax.com/Politics/mark-kirk-vulnerable-republican-senator/2015/04/07/id/637066/?ns_mail_uid=2955467&ns_mail_job=1615860_04082015&s=al&dkt_nbr=yy4al7pg

Kirk voted Yes on Every Child Succeeds Act – another 1000+ page bill nobody read.  It DOES NOT return education to local control as reported. http://illinoisreview.typepad.com/illinoisreview/2015/03/150-illinois-gop-line-up-behind-kirk-for-2016.html

Kirk has an F rating on Conservative Review.com  https://www.conservativereview.com/scorecard  Only 4 Republicans rate worse, three with 18%, one with 14%.  Even Lindsay graham is at 38%!

In case you missed this story from 2014, it clearly shows who Mark Kirk is and why he is no “public servant”:  http://blnnews.com/2014/05/21/senator-mark-kirk-revealed/

You have a better choice next March:

marterCitizens deserve better than a one party system.  James Marter will be in town in early January.  Get ready to meet and support him.  (unless you want Tammy Duckworth representing you)

  1. Yes, you are so right – this list could go on and on. I’ll add one more: Kirk has an F rating from the NRA, the same as our other Illinois Senator, Democrat Dick Durbin. Absolutely NO difference between Kirk and Durbin. #Marter4Senate
