Must see video about the increasing Wolf population




Wolf Overpopulation

Wolf overpopulation is dramatically damaging and even eliminating entire populations of Moose, Rocky Mountain Elk and other large ungulate populations. Wolf predation is erasing decades of effort and hundreds of millions invested in rebuilding healthy big game populations.
Ill-advised experimentation and anti-management philosophy continues to be pushed by extreme animal rights and anti-sportsmen special interest groups. This war on the west threatens big game herds, proactive state wildlife management, use of renewable wildlife resources and the western way of life. Our success ensures that delicate wildlife populations are restored to healthy levels.
Our combined effort is needed to make sure that these giants of the forest are not lost for generations to come in our wilderness areas. We must act now to protect our future. Help us win this battle by signing our petition.

Obama Plans to Attack the 2nd Amendment!


Dear Patriot,
Please find a special message from our paid sponsor, the Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms. Sponsorships like this help us preserve liberty and freedom in the United States of America. We appreciate your support.
Thank you,
TheTeaParty.net

Are you prepared for Obama's attack of new anti-gun laws? I hope so. Because right now, Obama is holding meetings that could determine if you can even own a gun in the future!
That's right - instead of doing his job - i.e. fixing the economy and creating jobs - Obama is pouring all of his energy into a massive campaign TO GRAB YOUR GUNS! We must stop Obama before our Second Amendment Rights are obliterated - FOREVER.
I urge you today to fill out the electronic CITIZENS INJUNCTION FORM - right away!
Please, do it now. This is extremely urgent.

Your CITIZENS INJUNCTION FORM will DEMAND that U.S. Senator Mitch McConnell to use his position as Senate Minority Leader to help stop Barack Obama from sneaking his gun-confiscating agenda past Congress.
Obama WILL issue his gun control plan via "executive orders" to bypass Congress! You see, despite what he claims, Obama hates being "transparent." He loves to weasel his fanatical ideas right past everybody - before people like you and me have the chance to stop him.
BUT NOT THIS TIME! THIS IS OUR CHANCE AND WE WILL STOP HIM! We will not let Obama get away with hijacking our ability to protect ourselves and our families while he turns a blind eye to the real problems in our country.
So far, Congress has blocked Obama's freedom crushing plans. But, by using the "executive order" loop-hole, he can get away with stripping your gun rights without even going to the Congress first.
That is unless the Congress blocks him by overriding his anti-gun executive orders.
And without your help now, along with the help of thousands of other gun owners, Congress won't act to defend your gun rights. Contrary to what they might believe, the truth is; Congress works for us. And we won't rest until they're WORKING HARD to stop Obama's assault on law-abiding gun owners.

Your CITIZENS INJUNCTION FORM will urge Senator McConnell to:
  1. EXPOSE Obama's planned use of his "executive order" power to increase federal fees on guns and ammunition, ban guns that are imported, extend waiting periods, ban the use of guns on all government property and even make it illegal to own a gun if you smoke or use tobacco products.
  2. PUBLICLY DENOUNCE Obama's back door gun control methods that threaten our Bill of Rights.
  3. LEAD A BATTLE in Congress to nullify each and every anti-gun "executive order" that Barack Obama signs into law.
At this very moment, the White House staff, along with radical gun ban groups, are working overtime on scores of anti-gun rights proposals that Obama could enact by executive order -at any minute!
No President has ever been as anti-gun and vindictive to gun owners as Barack Obama.
And unless you and I act today, HARSH AND PUNITIVE gun control measures will soon be executive ordered by Barack Obama.
But, Senator Mitch McConnell can pull the plug on Obama's grand scheme and get the Senate to block his gun-grabbing legislation.
So again, please sign your CITIZENS INJUNCTION FORM today.
The Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms has been working non-stop to defeat this "executive order" threat ever since we first learned of it.
And we both know that Barack Obama can't be trusted.
Thanks to the pro-gun Americans like you, there is mounting pressure to stop Obama in the Senate. But it will take the lead of the Minority Leader, Mitch McConnell, to bring the pressure to a scalding boil.
Please do not assume that the slick, dishonest Obama Administration and their anti-gun allies in the media will report any of what you are reading right now. They want to keep Americans ignorant and in the dark - while they work behind the scenes to take your guns away.
Unless Congress steps in, the White House will ruthlessly advance their gun hating objectives for their anti-Second Amendment messiah.
And unless you and I act today, Barack Obama with the stroke of his presidential pen could get away with eradicating the Second Amendment - FOREVER!
You and I can stop this treacherous anti-gun policy by signing your CITIZENS INJUNCTION FORM.
We need to DEMAND Senator Mitch McConnell fight Obama's anti-gun "executive order" game plan. Then we must create a grassroots uprising of Americans willing to back up our stand.
Senator Mitch McConnell is a strong gun rights supporter. But, unless he knows that you and other gun owners are going to stand up behind him, we can't expect him to lead the fight.
That's why I'm counting on you to sign your CITIZENS INJUNCTION FORM.

...And if you can afford it, please generously give a contribution of $20, $30, $50, $100 or more to the Citizens Right to Keep and Bear Arms.
But your CITIZENS INJUNCTION FORM alone will be enough.
In fact, my staff has estimated it could take a minimum of 1 to 2 MILLION Injunctions to have a real impact on Capitol Hill.
And, at roughly 36 cents apiece, it will cost us more than $355,000 to print and distribute this minimum amount.
What's more, we will need funds above and beyond this amount to help make our case on radio, TV, in newspapers and on the Internet.
So please sign your CITIZENS INJUNCTION FORM today!
For more than two centuries, Americans have bravely fought and died to protect our Bill of Rights. You and I owe it to them to see to it that Barack Obama does not, with the stroke of his pen, destroy their sacrifices and our Second Amendment for good.
Our major enemies are time and the lack of funds. Remember, every 20 seconds another contribution to take away your gun rights, goes to our opponents.

Sincerely,

Alan M. Gottlieb

Horses under Attack in Oregon


All across the Nation animal rights activists are attacking the right to own and use livestock, dog and horses in a traditional manner. These Neo-Nazi  left wing crazies have no idea what is involved with the raising and caring of livestock and yet they are the very ones introducing legislation in this country that harm all kinds of animals!
They (the urban activists) are directly responsible for the slow, agonizing starvation of thousands of horses.
They are the reason 10s of thousands of beautiful horses are penned up in jail cells to live out their lives, un loved and un cared for until they die from the effects of old age and or injures suffered in such close confinement,  all at tax payer expense. They suffer because of laws passed by ideologue organizations with the support of feel good citizens that (misled with video clips or sound bites) lack knowledge of the reality.  These people must be stopped or made to suffer the same conditions their misguided ideas inflect on noble animals who deserve a much better life or at the very least, a useful and quick death. None of Gods animals should be forced to live angry unproductive lives.
These well intentioned but very naive city folk are trying to pass laws that have a huge impact beyond their original objective.
They purely lack the understanding and experience necessary to make informed and educated decisions. Problem is, they don’t seem to care about the impact as a whole of their agenda, they just wish to get behind a narrow minded idea that makes them feel good, like they are improving something’s life. I think this stems from the probability that they are miserable in their own life and wish that someone or something could make it better for them. As pathetic as that is, I do feel sorry for them. But in order to protect Animals, dogs and cats, cattle/horses and more, we must collectively stand up and defy their agenda!
PLEASE pay attention to your states laws and new laws as they pertain to citizens rights and animals. Government has failed to improve the lives and condition of citizens, (responsible citizens improve their own conditions and then others around them) why would we think new laws would do nothing more but cause suffering of animals?
Leave the care of and regulation of animals to those who depend on them as they do a member of their own family. There is no law that can improve on the care of any animal from owners/citizens that daily protect, care for and love them!
 
OCA and interested parties,
 
SB 613 is scheduled this week on Thursday 2-24-11 at 3:00 in Senate
Environment and Natural Resources.  This bill is on a fast track and now
includes an amendment that excludes from regulation any rodeo event
activities recognized as appropriate under Professional Rodeo Cowboys
Association rules, policies, or programs.  The amendment will not help the
smaller non-sanctioned rodeos.  The bill sponsor will not concede to
canceling the bill for a hearing.  So, we need some testimony for Thursday
from ranching and rodeo. Any phone calls or emails to the Committee members
urging them NOT to support this bill will also be very helpful.

MA addresses a liberals letter


""You cannot strenghten the weak by weaking the strong" Honest Ab"

A rising tide lifts all boats!

I want no one weak--the goal, dear one, is to strenghten our country![MA]  People do this, not Government

I don't know what business you are in, but I think I heard you sell farm/ranch equipment.  Well, if your neighbors are not successful, then they won't be able to buy new tractors.  If you are in the cattle business, you need consumers to purchase your product. [MA] I Know a little about my business, but thank you for your input, you make my whole point for this blog Your writings seem to suggest that you think success and policy should be based on what is best for YOU...ME, ME, ME...[MA] No one can read that into what I say, or write about in my blog. I will always take care of myself and not rely on what you or government can do for me that is what you are worried about.   Let there be no mistake, I'll defend my family and my country to end of my days[MA]  I understand your thoughts but to defend your country you need to go back and read what made your country great and, what is was that the founding fathers feared--but somehow through spending time with my grandparents, I have a deep, and abiding love for my fellow man.[MA]  I love all people and wish only the best for them. That is why a government nanny state is soooo appalling to me. It destroys people, always has, always will  We am not in this world alone.  I need my country as much as it needs me to be productive, healthy and CONTRIBUTING (which means paying my fair share of taxes and no more.) [MA] But you think that financially successful people owe more that you or me?  I think the corporations that were too big to fail were bailed out[MA]  That is to bad. No one and nothing in this world is to big to fail…just a fact. The other part is that those business or governments fail for a reason. GM should have gone under and others would have learned from those mistakes and risen to take their place. The government (in it’s over stepping) demonstrated that they (large evil money makers) don’t need to show responsibility…bad, very bad idea to promote --and I actually thought that had we not done that, then the country would be in a depression.[MA]  almost 10% unemployment, real unemployment at just under 20%, currency that is lacking in value, government at the brink of bankruptcy, weak world presents and you think this is a better path? The people who lived through a real deep depression understood personal responsibility. We have very little of that now. People have been conditioned to rely on the government and not their own actions It was tough and I don't like the deficit and I don't like paying more taxes than my share. [MA] no one does. But what is your share? How much does the government need to operate? What is the basic responsibility of government? Is it to regulated school bake sales? To sue a state for trying to protect its boarders? Is it to provide retirement and health care for its citizens? Is it to make certain meats are illegal to eat? (yes, you can go to jail for eating horse meat, even if it’s a common dish in Europe. Because it is so healthily, it was a staple for our military for years, it’s just not politically correct now days. I wonder, what is next?) Is it to tell us what car to drive or light bulb to use? Is it to condone, promote and fund killing of unborn children?  Is it to take 50% of your personal wealth when you die? Or is it to regulate news (freedom of speech act) What is the role of Government? Funny, with all the information we have available to us, many people do not know what the views of the founders of this nation said about the role of government. They were not so concerned about what a big government could do for you, but what it would do to you! However, now that the corporations [MA] Nice to hear all is well with them now are strong again as evidenced by the stock market and the salaries they are paying their CEOs,[MA]  Only a liberal would consider a salary as a means to measure a company’s solvency. Perhaps it shows something very different?   then now is the time for them to step up and pay their fair share of taxes.[MA]  Ha ha, what is their fair share? Who says what a fair share is? If we all and I mean every American paid 10% in taxes, would this not be fair?  Remember, by eliminating the top 1% tax cut approved during Bush's time, will still leave these 1% with lower taxes then when Reagan was in the White House. [MA] Why would that bother you and what does that have to do with fairness?   You can't have your cake and eat it too,[MA]  What cake??? I will make my own cake and eat it anytime I please thank you. I don’t need the Government giving me cake, telling when, or how much of, or what kind I can eat if you are serious about the deficit--and you should be--then the revenue and the expense side have to be addresssed.  Just like your home budget. [MA] I pretty much make a set amount and I don’t see that changing very soon so, I keep my spending in line with my income. This is very much different than the government that will not be responsible about its spending and will raise its income by raising taxes on those who are taking responsibility with their personal spending. And, do so in very hard economic times.  I can't wait to see how the John Boehner plans to cut spending.  I'll hope he means it, because it does need to happen. [MA] Me too, but with any cuts (just like not going out to dinner as often) people will complain…because they have forgot how to cook for themselves Take that tea and steep it.[Bruce]  Hmmm, good tea today
