URGENT VIRGINIA ELECTION ALERT -- VOTE TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 6!!! In the race for Governor of Virginia, the NRA Political Victory Fund has issued a grade of A- to Republican Mark Earley, and a grade of C to Democrat Mark Warner. In our judgment, Mark Earley is clearly a better candidate for Virginia`s NRA members and gun owners. The Democratic candidate, Mark Warner, has altered his public stance on issues of concern to gun owners several times -- first since serving as chairman of the state Democratic party, and then since running unsuccessfully against Senator John Warner in 1996. As chairman ...

In Brooklyn, New York, Chush is a school that caters to learning disabled children. Some children remain in Chush for their entire school career, while others can be mainstreamed into conventional schools. At a Chush fundraising dinner, the father of a Chush child delivered a speech that would never be forgotten by all who attended. After extolling the school and its dedicated staff, he cried out, "Where is the perfection in my son Shaya? Everything God does is done with perfection. But my child cannot understand things as other children do. My child cannot remember facts and figures as ...

About a month ago we did a thread asking freepers to tell about their pets. As of now I am still getting posts to that thread because folks just love to talk about their pets. if you don't believe me just read the two links below.

In 1993, one of the first actions taken by President Clinton was to sign into law the National Institutes of Health Revitalization Act of 1993, which lifted the moratorium on federal funding of fetal tissue transplantation research. While this legislation lifted the federal funding ban, it also purported to establish certain parameters for those involved, especially those involved in the transferring, or as it truly seems, "trafficking", of baby body parts. Under the 1993 law, baby body parts cannot be sold for "valuable consideration," but money can be exchanged for fees involving transportation, implantation, processing, preservation, quality control, or storage. ...

I am going to do something that I have been wanting to do for a long time. Ask you about your pet and tell you about mine. I know that this is not relevant to the economic and political events of the day... it just seems to be a fun thing to do to ask you about your dog or cat or what??? My son has lizards and loves them!! (His wife, thank God, likes them too.) Most folks have dogs and cats. Some of you might have a skunk. Thats the nice thing about free choice. You get to ...

Here's a quote from Christian Coalition: If you actively support the protection of the unborn, take time to thank Wal-Mart for their courageous corporate stand against Planned Parenthood. A recent company policy from Wal-Mart says their pharmacists are not to stock , order or dispense PREVEN (the morning-after pill which can cause abortions ). This policy came out in fall, 98 & Planned Parenthood is applying pressure to get them to change their policy. When a business takes a pro=life stance it is very important that we let them know how much we support their policy by l) Contacting Wal=Mart ...

And that's precisely why I'm here in ... gulp ... Little Rock. And why I hope to be outahere real soon. Keep me in your prayers, folks. And add one for Pat Matrisciana, the boys on the tracks and their courageous mother, Linda Ives, who also believes the only way to fight successfully is right out in the open.
