The vote is coming soon, and it's going to be close.

The vote in question is on John Bolton, whom President Bush nominated
to be the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations. The Senate has twice
put off a vote on his nomination, but Capitol Hill insiders expect
the final vote will come as early as next week.

The anti-gunners in the Senate have tried everything they can to
derail his nomination. Bolton is EXTREMELY pro-gun and has a record
of opposing UN tyrants who wish to impose gun control on our country.

In 2001, Bolton defended American gun owners by stating our country
would oppose any UN effort to regulate non-military firearms or any
effort that would "abrogate the constitutional right to bear arms."
Because of his stand, Bolton is credited with destroying any hope
other nations had of achieving a consensus on gun control.

Bolton also spearheaded U.S. opposition to the International Criminal
Court -- a world court that would have been packed with extreme,
far-left, activist judges.

While President Clinton initially signed the treaty to establish this
anti-gun world court, the Bush administration reversed his decision.
John Bolton was the man who had the pleasure of signing the
paperwork, declaring that the day he signed the letter withdrawing
the U.S. signature on the treaty was "the happiest moment of my
government service."

You would be hard pressed to find an experienced candidate who is
more pro-gun than Bolton or who is more outspoken against UN abuses!

ACTION: Please contact your senators immediately. Urge them to vote
to confirm John Bolton. This vote could occur as soon as Tuesday, so
please ACT NOW!

e-mail message.

-----Pre-written letter-----

Dear Senator:

The United Nations is no friend of the United States or the Second
Amendment. The General Assembly is controlled by thugs and dictators
who would impose gun control on a worldwide basis, including the
United States.

This is why we need a man like John Bolton to represent us at the
United Nations. We need a strong-willed patriot who will oppose this
world body whenever it tries to impose its anti-American agenda upon
us.

Bolton has a long and distinguished service in the State Department.
He has a proven record of supporting America first and for defending
the constitutional rights of every citizen.

Please support the nomination of John Bolton and oppose any effort to
delay such a vote. Thank you.

Sincerely,
