Van Hollen, Baker to hold public event

The head of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee is coming to Columbia.
U.S. Rep. Chris Van Hollen, D-Maryland, will hold a public event with state Rep. Judy Baker, D-Columbia, at 10:30 a.m. on Friday at the Boone County Health Department in Columbia. Baker is the party’s nominee in the U.S. Ninth District.
Van Hollen is the chairman of the cash-rich organization that could provide around $1 million worth of advertisements in support of the two-term lawmaker’s congressional bid.
Baker campaign manager Brian Zuzenak said Baker and Van Hollen will meet to discuss Baker’s bid for the 25-county district.
Baker is facing off against former state Rep. Blaine Luetkemeyer, R-St. Elizabeth, and Libertarian candidate Tamara Millay.
ADDENDUM: Luetkemeyer spokesman Paul Sloca sent the Tribune this statement in regards to the DCCC visit:
“This visit by the DCCC makes the contrasts in this race even clearer. While Blaine Luetkemeyer wants to fix the broken Congress by opposing job-killing taxes, abortion and gay marriage and supporting domestic oil exploration and our Second Amendment rights, Judy Baker wants to inflict more damage in Congress by supporting job-killing taxes, abortion, gay marriage and opposing domestic oil exploration and our Second Amendment rights. That’s why it comes as no surprise that Judy Baker’s liberal East Coast friends are bragging about spending $1 million as part of an effort to hide her liberal pedigree from the people of the 9th Congressional District by distorting Blaine’s record. But no amount of money and no amount of distortion will be able to mislead folks about Blaine’s real commitment to fixing Congress and Judy Baker’s policies that will break it even further.”

Does one million dollars go as far as it used to in politics? Maybe that group should use about half of that money and take pictures of Mrs. Baker hammering nails on an old building or driving a pick-up truck. Will that help voters get a better idea of who she really is?

Hmm….I think Baker has given a good idea of who she is. She won counties that the local punditry stated she never could win. She’ll stick to then issues that matter and I look forward to her swearing-in in January
No LU 95, I don’t think that would get her message out. Maybe if she was smoking a dubie (which she supports), had her husband marrying two dudes (she supports), and took a gun away (which she supports)and then aborted a baby (which she supports), then it give the voters an idea of who she is.

This race is going to be fun to watch. Their is a stark contrast between the two candidates and I am sure it will get nasty.

Wow, Blaine’s campaign is already in desperation mode. Typical republican divisiveness and its not true. If B.L.’s campaign would have done some research, they would of found out that Judy has an NRA rating of A, gasp! Rovian cliches will not work this time Republicans, you are going to have to win on issues, you have dipped the Guns,God, Gays “well” once to many times. Health care, energy, education and the economy are the real issues, not hate and fear. Judy Baker 08

It’s good to see Blaine plans to stay positive. When this race turns into the advertising equivalent of a toilet bowl, remember that Blaine was out ahead of the curve!

I’m surprised to see a political event being held at a taxpayer owned facility. Does this mean we’re supporting one candidate over another? How does this event compliment or interrupt the function of the Health Department?

Will this be the battle of insurance? Was Mr. Luetkemeyer some sort of insurance manager at one time? Is his insurance background stronger than the health insurance background of Mrs. Baker?

Chris Van Hollen, D-Maryland.
Hon. Van Hollen was the sponsor of major gun banning legislation just last year, has a 100% rating from NARAL, leading pro-abortion group in the country, and is opposed to new drilling to help relieve US dependence to foreign oil.
Here is a guy that wants to ban millions of guns, supports abortion on demand and supports the largest tax increase in US history.
He and Judy Baker are just what the 9th District needs.

Ed,
Please provide documentation on the A rating. I call B.S. You’re the one who’s lying. And you say it’s not guns, God, and gays, maybe that’s true. I can’t wait to see her positions on energy, the economy,or any other issue. Communism has failed. I’m not saying she’s a commie but she is pink right down to her underwear.

Okay SG, here you go. Energy, I think JB said she’s for drilling but not in Anwr. But she will cast a vote to elect Pelosi speaker, so to me that says she’s really anti-drilling. Healthcare? I guess you’re wanting universal healthcare. I have my own insurance and I don’t want to pay for yours or hers. And while we’re on healthcare, I don’t want to legalize marijuana for medicinal purposes like Baker does. She will also vote with leadership for higher taxes that kill jobs and slow the economy. There you SG, knock yourself out.

Hey Bitter gunowner, how about you provide proof that she is going to take away your guns, why should i prove your assertions. Prove me wrong…oh no, you can’t, it’s not in your Rovian playbook

ED,
You are a liar and a troll. Judy does not and I can assure you will not have an A rating from the NRA once their ratings are released for the general.
Your misinformation is not only misleading but unethical. It is too bad for you that the voters in the 9th do and will know better.
Ratings information for all candidates will be available at NRA.org once posted.

Ed,
I only post a second time because I read through your conversations with other posters after posting my last comment.
Why is it that every time you are called out you ignore the arguments and resort to simple ad hominem attacks.
You really are a loser that simply repeats the liberal mantra without so much as a simple understanding of the issues. That is why you only respond with top level argumentation by repeating sentences that better reflect headlines than well thought out, warranted statements.
You need to go away.

Nah, I’m sticking around. Your over the top response amused me though, thank you. It is you republicans that have repeated the same mantra over and over. You are all so predictable.

That is a question Hulshof and friends should have asked before they converted what was supposed to be a non-partisan meeting of farmers with elected officials at Mizzou’s Delta Research Center into a Republican rally a few years ago. Look it up – the partisan event left the ag school with egg on its face and did nothing to promote our university. But it did promote Republicans on taxpayer property in an election year.

Baker has a A rating based on her legislative record. she even voted for the “castle doctrine” and BTW I remember a couple of years ago she won the Sportsmen Caucus Skeet Shoot, I a not a liar, it’s just you can’t neatly square peg her into a round hole.

I am a Blue Dog Dem. I met Baker today and I am sold.
She will be getting a lot of support and $ from my fellow Blue Dogs.
Gays and Guns? The republicans can never discuss the real issues that matter to Americans so they try to focus on Gays and Guns. They appeal to folks who don’t read and can barely write.
That dog won’t hunt.
The Repubs have had full control and have not accomplished anything on these issues. The Repubs have hoodwinked you social issue folks.

HB1908
Creates the crime of selling or distributing for sale an inappropriately colored firearm
Sponsor: Jane Bogetto
Co-Sponsor: Judy Baker
Summary:
This would ban the selling of any firearm that’s frame is not made of steel. Thus Glock, Springfield-Armory XD, etc. Polymer frame guns would be banned.
That legislation would ban many of the most popular guns sold today. The NRA is going to take the bark off her for being a Co-Sponsor.

Ed,
Negative. The grades given by the NRA / ILA for the general will not be availble for at least another month. You can certainly check that yourself at NRA.org.
I should let you know however that almost all candidate information on the ILA website is available to NRA members only. I am sure however that the NRA would be happy to sign you up. I believe they even have a deal running right now where you can get a life membership for only $500.
Imagine Ed, you can actually donate some money to a group that will make a difference fighting for your constitutional rights.
That said, I stand by my original statement that JB will NOT have an A rating in this general election. And nor should she.

Why don’t you give us the NRA url that gives Baker an A IN THIS RACE?
Could be you won’t because it doesn’t exist and isn’t likely to do so.

Have the repubs read Scalia’s opinion?
Scalia claims that the individual right to bear arms does not include “M-16 rifles and the like” because it covers only those weapons “in common use at the time” of the amendment’s adoption in the 18th century and not “dangerous and unusual weapons.”
Not everything is printed on the internet, jasonb, and Charles…is that the best you can do? doesn’t look like a big gun grab, probably just keeping kids from grabbing the pretty toy and shooting their siblings with it. Again you republicans are so desperate to put her in your Rovian “liberal” cubical, its funny to watch.
Jwes, glad to be on the same team 🙂

Look out. Ed’s caught in a lie. Can’t come up with any proof. Nada!
Not even a newspaper article!
Not even a link.
Funny stuff.
and BTW – if you think that Scalia meant that only guns used in the 1700’s should be protected you are in for a real disappointment. Not to mention you are broadcasting your lack of reading comprehension to the rest of the world on a public forum.

Read the opinion, then I will debate Scalia’s “strict constructionist” interpretations with you.
You might want to start by reading a newspaper first; a legal opinion might be a little advanced for your intellect.

In the ninth CD of MO I would prefer to see more focus on how one of these fine individuals would work to improve our economy. It would be a rip-off not only to this district, but the entire nation as well if this election hinged on scaring people about gun ownership, higher taxes, and medical procedures to end a pregnancy. The far right wing of the Republican Party has been very successful at scaring people into voting there way. Slowly but surely that strategy is becoming less effective. Obviously my bias is coming through. I will close on this question. How strongly did the NRA speak out against our current vice-president for shooting a man in the face?

jwes,
Welcome aboard Blue Dog Dem! It is a pleasure to be on the same team with you.
It was also great to see Steve Gaw at a Judy Baker fundraiser this morning. I knew he was fully aboard and both he and his campaign manager have been great in getting fully behind Judy, but it was still cool to see him there beside Judy in person.
We Democrats were lucky to have great candidates in the primary this year.
And we’ll turn this seat blue! Just as Judy surprised all the Good Ol’ Boys in the Sportsmen’s Caucus Skeet Shoot a couple of years ago, she’ll bring her A game to this campaign.

I’m not lying. You repubs made this an issue, not me. I’m been talking healthcare, the economy, education, and energy. Prove me wrong…I am not going to do your homework. The gun issue is a distraction from the above issues and I won’t waste my energy making it one. BTW, don’t be surprised in the NRA doesn’t endorse anyone in this race

Wayne,
Steve is a class act. I am glad to see that the Party is coming together.
If we just just take care of this Koster thing. Man, that is rubbing me the wrong way.

She was co-sponsor of legislation that would ban the sale of some of the most common guns sold in the country. The very handgun the Missouri Highway Patrol carry, would no longer be sold to the public.
You really think the NRA is going to let that slide? Guess again.

Ed,
You’re backing up pretty quick. Just make sure you don’t trip.
BTW – her supposed A rating was your assertion. That means it’s your homework to prove it.
You got called out and are now trying to change the subject. Pathetic.

You got called out and are now trying to change the subject. Pathetic.
Can we make all the candidates sign a pledge to never take away even ONE gun from a constituent??? UNLESS IT’S A CRIMINAL!

Let these radical Repubs continue to talk about gays and guns. We will just sit back and watch more self-identified republicans leave their party in droves.
What ever happened to the fiscally disciplined Repubs? Oh yes, that’s right-they are now self-identifying as Independents or Democrats.

SG,
That would not fit into their schema. The dissonance would cause their brains to explode, just like a Rush Limbaugh music record would do….wait, that was on Pink and the Brain….

That is far too much to ask from Baker.
There is no way to go from wanting to ban almost all handguns and many types of rifles and shotguns to signing that pledge.

Wow, see Charles in his death-defying leaps on logic. Charles thinks the NRA is going to come and save Luetkemeyer. Charles, give it up. The gun issue is a distraction from the real issues. There is no gun grab from any of these candidate. I implore these gun owners not to fall for the same bull the republicans have been feeding you. Look at your current economic and health cost siution and ask yourself, what is really in my best self interest. Again, no one is going to take your guns, but maybe the republicans will take your grandmothers oxygen off of medicaid or your children off of SCHIP instead. Look at your pocketbook and reject these pathetic attempts to dip into the Rovian well of Republican cliches in order to get votes.
None of these candidates will take your guns so this issue is a distraction, don’t fall for it again

Then why did she sponsor legislation just last year to ban the sale of some of the most popular guns sold?
If she doesn’t want to do it, then why did she try?
