Articles, Reports and Other Documents of Interest to Democrats
Kelly, be constructiveby Art Richards Jr. - Slippery Rock Township
Will U.S. Rep. Mike Kelly
listen? I doubt it. I believe he has a one-track mind.
In two recent Butler Eagle articles, “Kelly blasts Obama on worldwide gun control” and “Kelly rips president’s 2014 budget proposal,” Kelly spends his time tearing down instead of being constructive.
In the first article, the United Nations passed a resolution to try to curtail the sale of guns and ammunition worldwide. Hopefully, this would result in less gun violence and killings by terroristic militias.
Wouldn’t that be wonderful? Kelly doesn’t think so. Kelly is controlled by the gun manufacturers and is against the U.N. resolution.
What is he thinking? Kelly apparently is against human rights, while promoting gun sales to al-Qaida and other terrorist groups.
Kelly’s next trip out of Washington should be to Mali, Syria and Somalia to see firsthand the slaughter and violence by way of guns.
Does Kelly know that 80 percent to 90 percent of the people in the U.S. support improved control of guns to help reduce gun violence?
Kelly should listen to the populace.
He seems to have a one-track mind regarding compromise on a federal budget. Kelly should have an open mind and consider all alternatives for the budget and be willing to compromise.
He shouldn’t criticize President Barack Obama’s budget before it even is submitted.
Kelly should represent all the people, regardless of the political party to which they belong.
He should listen to the voters.

Kelly errs on arms treaty
by Tom Grant - Zelienople
by Tom Grant - Zelienople
Butler County’s own U. S. Rep. Mike Kelly,
R-3rd, has spent a lot of time lately loudly decrying a proposed United
Nations resolution. The resolution aims to control the global arms trade by
making it more difficult for terrorists and rogue governments to purchase
weapons of war. Despite Kelly’s mighty efforts, the resolution passed. Only
three countries voted against it: Iran, North Korea and Syria.
Kelly strongly criticized the Obama administration for supporting the resolution. Why, at the same time that he was condemning the administration, did he not praise Iran, North Korea and Syria for supporting his position?
In the future, I hope Kelly will not be so quick to be a shill for the arms industry and its friends among the National Rifle Association’s leadership — and will, instead, support efforts to make the world a safer place.
