Hunters Could Be In Trouble!

Just received this from Gail Graham, a SHARE mom. Another way our rights are being whittled away. Gail writes....

Hello everyone,I know we all may have different ideas and thoughts of gun ownership but many of us are hunters and it is very concerning. Cathy, you may use this at your discresion in forwarding this.but my husband and I are avid hunters and this speaks volumes. Gail

Thank you for your stand in fighting injustices of all nature but this is one you need to investigate on your own. Senate Bill SB-2099 will require us to put on our 2009 1040 federal taxform all guns that you have or own. It may require fingerprints and a tax of$50 per gun. This bill was introduced on Feb 24 2009. This bill will become public knowledge 30 days after it is voted into law. This is an amendment tothe Internal Revenue Act of 1986. This means that the Finance Committee can pass this without the Senate even voting on it at all. The full text of the proposed amendment is on the U.S. Senate homepage, http://www.gov/ou can find the bill by doing a search by the bill number, SB-2099.

You knowwho to call; I strongly suggest you do. Please send a copy of thise-mail to every gun owner you know. http://www.opencongress.org/bill/111-h45/text

It has started. Congress is now starting on the firearms confiscation bill. If it passes, gun owners will become criminals if you don't fully comply. Important for you to be aware of a new bill HR 45 introduced into theHouse.. This is the Blair Holt Firearm Licensing & Record of Sale Act of 2009. Even gun shop owners didn't know about this because the government istrying to fly it under the radar. To find out about this - go to any government website and type in HR 45 or Google HR 45 Blair Holt Firearm Licensing & Record of Sales Act of 2009. You will get all the information. Basically this would make it illegal to own a firearm - any rifle with a clip or ANY pistol unless: It is registered; You are fingerprinted; You supply a current Driver's License; You supply your Social Security #
You will submit to a physical & mental evaluation at any time of their choosing each update, change of ownership through private or public sale must be reported and costs $25 failure to do so automatically causes you to lose the right to own firearms forever and would make you subject up to a year in jail.
There is a child provision clause on page 16 section 305 stating a gunmust be locked and inaccessible to any child under 18.
They (the gov't) would have the right to come and inspect that you are storing your gun safely away from children and it would be punishable for upto 5 yrs.. in prison and a fine if you are found to be in violation.
If you think this is a joke - go to the website and take your pick of many options to read this. It is long and lengthy. But, more and more people are becoming aware of this. Pass the word along. Any hunters in your family pass this along. This is just a "termite" approach to complete confiscation of guns and disarming of our society to the point we have no defense - chip away a little here and there until the goal is accomplished before anyone realizes it.

This is one to act on whether you own a gun or not. If you take my gun, only the criminal will have one to use against me..HR 45 only makes me/us less safe. http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/query/z?c111:H.R.45 http://www.opencongress.org/bill/111-h45/show http://www.govtrack.us/congress/bill.xpd?bill=h111-45 http://www.govtrack.us/congress/bill.xpd?bill=h111-45
Please... copy and send this out to EVERYONE in the USA , whether you support the Right to Bear Arms or are for gun control. We all should have the right to choose.

Be praying!!!!!

There are lots of reasons to keep an eye out on this administration....

Christian Attorney Sees Threat to Parental Rights
Associated Press - 2/14/2009 4:00:00 AM

An attorney with the Christian Law Association sees a growing threat to the rights of parents to decide how their children should be educated.

David Gibbs III says he and other Christians believe they will have to stand before God and give an account for how they have raised and taught their children. But he fears that the new administration in Washington may try to exert more control over education, limiting the options of parents who do not like what their children are being taught in public schools. He says the Christian Law Association defends parental rights, including the right to home school children. "To successfully rear a child for God, it requires the church, it requires mom and dad, it requires education. It's a combined effort. We pray and diligently try to make the best decisions we can for our children because, you know what, we'll stand before God and give an account of the choices that we've made," he contends.

"I see some greater battles in the days ahead with the administration in Washington, DC, saying, 'We want to take over healthcare, we already control education, we want to increase control.' I think you're going to see the rights of parents coming under greater attack. We're watching an assault on the right of mom and dad to be what the Bible commands them to be."

Kerrie's Important P.S. to her "Unofficial Poll"

An important P.S. to my “Unofficial Poll” email…..
Thanks for reading it! Kerrie

SHARE was founded as a homeschool support group, open to everyone that homeschools, no matter what their beliefs. The majority of families in SHARE are Christians, but all faiths (or non-faiths) and philosophies are welcome. In fact, one reason we started SHARE was to give an alternative to homeschool groups that were becoming more & more "inclusive." We feared those types of groups would destroy the homeschool movement and put people under "judgment." Homeschool groups are not churches. Ed & Cathy Mullins and Pat & I are your homeschool leader volunteers, not pastors or counselors. There are things that we as leaders feel strongly about, but we try to keep the SHARE forum and email loop focused on homeschool/education issues.

There are MANY different opinions in SHARE (and among Christians) about political topics - the 2008 candidates, healthcare, the economy, the war in Iraq, immigration, energy, the environment, etc. There are also lots of different opinions about homeschool/parenting topics - curriculum, teaching philosophies, spanking, dress code, dancing, music, dating, nutrition, dual enrollment, college, movies, video games, etc. SHARE has been a great place to dialogue and learn about other viewpoints. We love and support each other as friends and homeschoolers but sometimes have to "agree to disagree!"

There is one issue that seems to cause more division among us than any other – the topic of abortion, and the rights of the unborn. It is the one thing that is most important to our family during this election. In fact, if someone was the ideal pro-parental rights (pro-homeschooling) candidate, we could not vote for him if he was not also a pro-unborn baby candidate. Let me share why this issue has such a high priority in our family...

My mom was encouraged to have an abortion while carrying me because of taking DES and other anti-miscarriage drugs. My mother-in-law was a young unwed mother when she became pregnant with my husband. My grandmother was also a young unwed mother when she became pregnant with my dad. My doctors wanted me to have abortions with both Tyler and David to save my life and spare them from being born with birth defects (I had a rare pituitary tumor with many complications). My best friend and roommate became pregnant and contracted an STD as the result of a violent rape, but chose to keep her baby. My cousin decided not to abort her Down syndrome baby girl when my parents begged to raise her. We babysit Gideon, whose drug-addicted mom had already had 8 (state-funded) abortions before she unexpectedly delivered him, screaming for a partial birth abortion. For years I taught amazing deaf-blind students whose parents had been almost forced to have an abortion. The list could go on and on….

How different the world would’ve been if the women above had had an abortion. Some say I should be defending a women’s right to choose. I just can’t! I think we should be defending the pre-born baby’s right to live. Who speaks for them? Sounds like a pro-life cliché – but did the 48 million babies aborted since Roe v. Wade have a choice? My mother-in-law and grandmother, both pregnant before Roe v. Wade, say they would’ve had the abortion if it had be easier to obtain. I was in college when Roe v. Wade was passed. It was shocking how things changed once abortion was readily available. How many of my friends have been scarred (physically and mentally) by the abortions they had during those years. What would their babies have grown up to be?

I used to keep quiet about my pro-life convictions, afraid to seem judgmental or “right wing.” But one day that all changed – the day one of my good friends had a semi-late term abortion (unsympathetic boyfriend, angry parents and possible loss of an art school scholarship) while another friend delivered her twins prematurely. All babies were at the same gestation and “born” on the same day, and yet in one room at the hospital they were killing a baby, and in another room they were trying to save babies. It was like a horrific science fiction movie!

We are involved in an American history homeschool co-op that has been discussing the horrors of slavery and how it was allowed to take place in our county. It has been heart-wrenching to read about that time in our country’s history. Why was human life so de-valued and the African Americans (and Native Americans & others) treated so cruelly…even by Christians? What a shameful part of our past. The students have asked – isn’t the issue of abortion going to polarize our country just as the issue of slavery did? Isn’t it even a more important human rights issue? Through abortion, aren’t we devaluing human life just as we did back then? They wonder why more African Americans don’t speak out against abortion, since their babies are a large percentage of the ones being aborted each day. My son Dave (one of the sons they wanted me to abort) just told me that it is estimated that 645,000 African American slaves were first brought to the United States from 1600-1800. By 1860, the census recorded 4 million slaves in the U.S. He wonders how many of the 48 million babies (aborted since Roe v. Wade was passed in 1973) were African American? Sadly, it is a lot more than 4 million!

I was just reading my son Tyler’s posts about “the rights of the unborn” on Facebook.(one of the other sons the doctors said I should abort) He is in his first year of medical school at UAB, studying for genetics, embryology and medical ethics exams. He wonders, as medical technology advances, will we keep changing our definition of when “life” is viable? Does life really begin when a baby can live on its own? If so, shouldn’t a mother be able to kill her 3-month old baby (as Princeton professor Peter Singer believes) if she feels like it? How about someone like 19-year-old Jesse Mullins? Should Cathy have the right to terminate the life of her disabled son? After all, he is dependent on her for his life and would die without her support.

Because of our strong feelings about the rights of the unborn, our family just cannot vote for a candidate – or party – that is “pro-choice.” We don’t like to be “one-issue” voters – but this issue is literally “life and death.” For us, it pales in comparison to all others…even the parental right to homeschool. It doesn’t take a political science major to know which party and candidates make a stand for the rights of the unborn. The Democratic and Republican platforms make it very clear. Barak Obama and John McCain have made it very clear. I guess you can figure out who we will be voting for!

Please forgive me if I’ve offended you by posting this on a homeschool website – but many of you have asked about my views and I would be gutless if I didn’t speak up. I am certainly not trying to judge anyone – I have friends that are strongly pro-choice, have had multiple abortions, and have encouraged their daughters & granddaughters to have abortions (I wonder if their great- granddaughters will find it harder or easier to terminate their unborn babies?). But – in a way this topic does relate to homeschooling. It makes me sad that the same party that wants to restrict our parental rights to homeschool, also wants to restrict the rights of the unborn. PLEASE think about that when you vote on Tuesday.

Broadway on the Driveway sends this out....

Hello Friends,
Please vote this week first and foremost for life. Our first priority must be to save innocent children. Regardless of our views on the war, economy, healthcare, candidate's personality, etc., protecting a human being's life is far the most important.
Before voting this Tuesday, please listen to Pastor Terry Scheel's message dated November 2, 2008, "The Litmus Test" : http://sermon.net/c/summit/Please note: There are thematic elements in this sermon that are not suitable for children.
Jeremiah 31:15This is what the LORD says: "A voice is heard in Ramah, mourning and great weeping, Rachel weeping for her children and refusing to be comforted, because her children are no more."In the Old Testament we read of child sacrifices and babies being slaughtered. In those days, mothers were weeping at the loss of their children. Today, mothers are fighting for the right to kill their unborn babies.
The Bible tells us life begins at conception:
Psalm 139:13-16 13 For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother's womb. 14 I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. 15 My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place. When I was woven together in the depths of the earth, 16 your eyes saw my unformed body. All the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be.

"Nobody makes a greater mistake than he who does nothing because he could only do a little." "The only thing necessary for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing." - Edmund Burke

"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness." - Thomas Jefferson, The Declaration of Independence
Candidate Concerns
Barack Obama co-sponsored the "Freedom of Choice Act," a bill that would make partial-birth abortion legal again and force taxpayers to pay for abortions.

Barrack Obama has said, "The first thing I'd do as president is sign the Freedom of Choice Act."
"At what point does a baby get human rights, in your view?"
Obama: "Answering that question is above my pay grade."

Obama voted to block a bill to require an abortionist to notify a parent before performing an abortion on a minor girl from another state.
Obama: "I've got two daughters, 9 years old and 6 years old. I am going to teach them first of all about values and morals. But if they make a mistake, I don't want them punished with a baby."
Barack Obama voted 4 times to deny protection to babies born alive after an abortion.

Thank you for taking the time to read this. God bless you as you vote.
Blessings,The Millers

This says it all....forwarded from Mary Kay Fulton

Michael Master reports -- you decide.

I know that many of you are sick and tired of all this political stuff, read but if you read just one more thing between now and next month's election, I urge you to the following editorial. I don't know who 'Michael Masters' is or what he does, but he does write cogently and well. A Google search turns up a Michael Masters who is a lawyer in Philadelphia, but he may not be the author of this open letter. There is a 'Michael C. Masters' who lives in McLean, VA. I presume, but do not know, for sure, that he is the author. However, he didn't show up in any Google searches that I conducted, so I guess he isn't 'notorious' enough to be found. I did NOT locate anything on him in Snopes either. I look at that as a good thing, however. On the surface, that suggests he is just another citizen like the rest of us and has no particular ax to grind. However, he HAS done his homework before writing this editorial.



To Barack Hussein Obama,

The New York Times carried a story on Saturday, October 4, 2008, that proved you had a significantly closer relationship with Bill Ayers than what you previously admitted. While the issue of your relationship is of concern, the greater concern is that you lied to America about it.

The Chicago Sun reported on May 8, 2008, that FBI records showed that you had a significantly closer relationship with Tony Rezko than what you previously admitted. In the interview, you said that you only saw Mr. Rezko a couple of times a year. The FBI files showed that you saw him weekly. While the issue of your relationship is of concern, the greater concern is that you lied to America about it.

Your speech in Philadelphia on March 18, 2008, about 'race' contradicted your statement to Anderson Cooper on March 14 when you said that you never heard Reverend Wright make his negative statements about white America. While your attendance at Trinity Church for 20 years is of concern, the greater concern is that you lied to America on March 14.

In your 1st debate with John McCain, you said that you never said that you would meet with the leaders of Cuba, Venezuela, Iran, and North Korea without 'preparations' at lower levels ... Joe Biden repeated your words in his debate with Sarah Palin ... while the video tape from your debate last February clearly shows that you answered 'I would' to the question of meeting with those leaders within 12 months without 'any' preconditions. While your judgment about meeting with enemies of the USA without pre-conditions is of concern, the greater concern is that you lied to America in the debate with McCain.

On July 14, 2008, you said that you always knew that the surge would work while the video tapes of you from more than a year ago show that you stated that the surge would not work. While your judgment about military strategy as a potential commander-in-chief is of concern, the greater concern is that you lied to America on July 14.

You now claim that your reason for voting against funding for the troops was because the bill did not include a time line for withdrawal, while the video tapes of you from more than a year ago show that you voted against additional funding because you wanted our troops to be removed immediately ... not in 16 months after the 2008 election as you now claim. While your judgment about removing our troops unilaterally in 2007 is of concern, the greater concern is that you lied to America about your previous position.

You claim to have a record of working with Republicans while the record shows that the only bill that you sponsored with a Republican was with Chuck Lugar ... and it failed. The record shows that you vote 97% in concert with the Democrat party and that you have the most liberal voting record in the Senate. You joined Republicans only 13% of the time in your votes and those 13% were only after agreement from the Democrat party. While it is of concern that you fail to include conservativ es in your actions and that you are such a liberal, the greater concern is that you distorted the truth.

In the primary debates of last February, 2008, you claimed to have talked with a 'Captain' of a platoon in Afghanistan 'the other day' when in fact you had a discussion in 2003 with a Lieutenant who had just been deployed to Afghanistan. You lied in that debate.

In your debates last spring, you claimed to have been a 'professor of Constitutional law' when in fact you have never been a professor of Constitutional law. In this last debate, you were careful to say that you 'taught a law c lass' and never mentioned being a 'professor of Constitutional law.' You lied last spring.

You and Joe Biden both claimed that John McCain voted against additional funding for our troops when the actual records show the opposite. You distorted the truth.

You and Joe Biden claim that John McCain voted against funding for alternate energy sources 20 times when the record shows that John McCain specifically voted against funding for bio fuels, especially corn .. and he was right .... corn is too expensive at producing ethanol, and using corn to make ethanol increased the price of corn from $2 a bushel to $6 a bushel for food. You distorted the truth.

You and Joe Biden claim that John McCain voted like both of you for a tax increase on those making as little as $42,000 per year while the voting record clearly shows that John McCain did not vote as you and Joe Biden. You lied to America.

You and Joe Biden claim that John McCain voted with George W. Bush 90% of the time when you know that Democrats also vote 90% of the time with the President (including Joe Biden) because the vast majority of the votes are procedural. You are one of the few who has not voted 90% of the time with the president because you have been missing from the Senate since the day you got elected. While your absence from your job in the Senate is of concern, the greater concern is that you spin the facts.

Y ou did not take an active role in the rescue plan. You claimed that the Senate did not need you while the real reason that you abstained was because of your close relationships with the executives of Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, Countrywide, and Acorn ... who all helped cause the financial problems of today ... and they all made major contributions to your campaign. While your relationship with these executives and your protection of them for your brief 3 years in the Senate (along with Barney Frank, Chuck Schumer, Maxine Waters, and Chris Dodd) is of concern, the greater concern is that you are being deceitful.

You forgot to mention that you personally represented Tony Rezko and Acorn. Tony Rezko, an Arab and close friend to you, was convicted of fraud in Chicago real estate transactions that bilked millions of tax dollars from the Illinois government for renovation projects that you sponsored as a state senator ... and Acorn has been convicted of voter fraud, real estate sub prime loan intimidation, and illegal campaign contributions. Tony Rezko has contributed hundreds of thousands of dollars to your political campaigns. You personally used your political positions to steer money to both Tony Rezko and Acorn and you used Acorn to register thousands of phony voters for Democrats and you. While your relationships with Rezko and Acorn are of concern, the greater concern is that you omitted important facts about your relationships with them to America.

During your campaign, you said: 'typical white person.' 'They cling to their guns and religion.' 'They will say that I am black.' You played the race card. You tried to label any criticism about you as racist. You divide America.

You claim that you will reduce taxes for 95% of America, but you forgot to tell America that those reductions are after you remove the Bush tax reductions. You have requested close to $1 billion in earmarks and several million for Acorn. Your social programs will cost America $1 trillion per year and you claim that a reduction in military spending ($100 billion for Iraq) can pay for it. While your economic plan of adding 30% to the size of our federal government is of concern, the greater concern is that you are deceiving America.

The drain to America's economy by foreign supplied oil is $700 billion per year (5% of GDP) while the war in Iraq is $100 billion (less than 1% of GDP). You voted against any increases to oil exploration for the last 3 years and any expansion of nuclear facilities. Yet today, you say that you have always been for more oil and more nuclear. You are lying to America.

Mr. Obama, you claimed that you 'changed' your mind about public financing for your campaign because of the money spent by Republican PACs in 2004. The truth is that the Democrat PACs in 2004, 2006, and 2008 spent twice as much as the Republican PACs (especially George Soros and MoveOn.org). You are lying to America.

Mr. Obama, you have done nothing to stop the actions of the teachers union and college professors in the USA. They eliminated religion from our history. They teach pro gay agendas and discuss sex with students as young as first grade. They bring their personal politics into the classrooms. They disparage conservatives They brainwash our children. They are in it for themselves ..... not America. Are you reluctant to condemn their actions because teachers/professors and the NEA contribute 25% of all money donated to Democrats and none to Republicans? You are deceiving America.

Oh, Mr. Obama, Teddy Roosevelt said about a hundred years ago that we Americans should first look at the character of our leaders before anything else.

Your character looks horrible. While you make good speeches, motivating speeches, your character does not match your rhetoric. You talk the talk, but do not walk the walk.

1. You lied to America. You lied many times. You distorted facts. You parsed your answers like a lawyer.

2. You distorted the record of John McCain in your words and in your advertisements.

3. You had associations with some very bad people for your personal political gains and then lied about those associations.

4. You divide America about race and about class.

Now let me compare your record of lies, distortions, race baiting, and associations to John McCain: War hero. Annapolis graduate with 'Country first.' Operational leadership experience like all 43 previously elected presidents of the USA as a Navy officer for 22 years. 26 years in the Senate. Straight talk. Maverick. 54% of the time participated on bills with Democrats. Never asked for an earmark. The only blemish on his record is his part in the Keating 5 debacle about 25 years ago.

Mr. Obama, at Harvard Law School, you learned that the end does not justify the means. You learned that perjury, false witness, dishonesty, distortion of truth are never tolerated. Yet, your dishonesty is overwhelming. Your dishonesty is tremendously greater than the dishonesty that caused the impea chment and disbarment of Bill Clinton. Your dishonesty is tremendously greater than the dishonesty of Scooter Libby. You should be ashamed.

Mr. Obama, it is time for us Americans to put aside our differences on political issues and vote against you because of your dishonest character. It is time for all of us Americans to put aside our political issues and vote for America first. It is time for America to vote for honesty.

Any people who vote for you after understanding that you are dishonest should be ashamed of themselves for making their personal political issues more important than character. Would these same people vote for the anti-Christ if the anti-Christ promised them riches? Would they make a golden calf while Moses was up the mountain? Would they hire someone for a job if that someone lied in an interview? Of course not. So why do some of these people justify their votes for you even though they know you are dishonest? Why do they excuse your dishonesty? Because some of these people are frightened about the future, the economy, and their financial security .... and you are preying on their fears with empty promises ... and because some (especially our young people) are consumed by your wonderful style and promises for 'change' like the Germans who voted for Adolf Hitler in 1932. The greed/envy by Germans in 1932 kept them from recognizing Hitler for who he was. They loved his style. Greed and envy are keeping many Americans from recognizing you .. your style has camouflaged your dishonesty .... but many of us see you for who you really are ... and we will not stop exposing who you are every day, forever if it is necessary.

Mr. Obama, you are dishonest. Anyone who votes for you is enabling dishonesty.

Mr. Obama, America cannot trust that you will put America first in your decisions about the future.

Mr. Obama, you are not the 'change' that America deserves. We cannot trust you.

Mr. Obama, You are not ready and not fit to be commander-in-chief.

Mr. Obama, John McCain does not have as much money as your campaign to refute all of your false statements. And for whatever reasons, the mainstream media will not give adequate coverage or research about your lies, distortions, word parsing, bad associations, race baiting, lack of operational leadership experience, and generally dishonest character. The media is diverting our attention from your relationships and ignoring the fact that you lied about those relationships. The fact that you lied is much more important than the relationships themselves .... just like with Bill Clinton and Richard Nixon ... Monica Lewinski and Watergate were not nearly as bad as the fact that those men lied about the events ... false witness ... perjury .. your relationships and bad judgements are bad on their own .... but your lies are even worse.

Therefore, by copy of this memo, all who read this memo are asked to send it to everyone else in America before it is too late. We need to do the job that the media will not do. We need to expose your dishonesty so that every person in America understands who you really are before election day.

Mr. Obama, in a democracy, we get what we deserve. And God help America if we deserve you.
