PETA JUMPS THE SHARK!

Are these zealots even remotely rational? They have attacked figure skater Johnny Weir, who is not (as all who read my blog know) one of my favorites - why? Because he has a little tuft of fox fur on the shoulder of his long program costume.

For the love of God! Everyone who knows me knows that I love animals. But this kind of nonsense just makes their movement look ridiculous and pretty damned stupid! While educating people to the [perhaps] inhumane methods of obtaining fur for coats and so forth would be a good thing, this kind of hysteria just creates the appearance of hysterical stupidity! And by the way, having seen the behavior of minks in the wild(as I have), you'll never dissuade me from believing that they fulfill their minky destiny by keeping me warm! They are the most vicious critters around.

And Mr. Weir makes a very intelligent (high praise coming from me) and thoughtful response: In the vast scheme of things, a few tufts of fox fur don't matter. Everyone in the competition is, after all, skating in cowhide boots! Well spoken, young man! I have ever so slightly revised my opinion of you and in a positive way!

YOU ALREADY KNEW THAT THE FOLKS AT PETA WERE INSENSITIVE IDIOTS. . .

Now these idiots have come up with a billboard that shows the back of an overweight woman in a bikini and which says that you can "save a whale" by changing to a vegetarian diet! The implication and the execution are both offensive in the extreme and once again, PETA has proven what infantile simps they truly are. Is being overweight unhealthful? Probably so in most cases, although both men and women who are overweight AND physically active seem to have normal blood pressure and no more ailments than their thinner brothers and sisters. It is likewise true that yo-yo dieting is unhealthful in the extreme. And while a vegetarian diet can be healthful, properly integrated into a weight management program, many other eating plans are equally healthful.

But then people that are overweight are the last group that is acceptable to denigrate and demonize.

SCREW YOU, PETA! And the whale you swam in on!

OH FOR THE LOVE OF GOD!

Have these simple-minded idiots ever heard of the First Amendment? Whole Foods is probably well rid of their patronage. Supercilious nincompoops, all of them! They want the CEO who built a very successful organic grocery business from nothing to keep his mouth shut on political matters, but they'll take political advice from Sean Penn and Barbra Streisand! I swear, I give up!

IS IT REALLY OVER?

Barack Hussein Obama, the most singularly unqualified candidate for the presidency ever to be nominated by a major political party (assuming of course that it actually happens) appears to be "home free" for the nomination. Although I must say, BHO may have the nomination sewn up, but it was Hillary Rodham Clinton who dominated the news cycle over the weekend. HE may have won, but SHE got all the attention. This is definitely something he needs to consider, should he even have the remotest notion of putting her on the ticket.

And no, I am not racist. Barack Hussein Obama would be unqualified to serve as POTUS regardless of skin color. It's his IDEAS that are offensive, not the color of his skin. It is the lack of content in his character, not the color of his skin, that disqualifies him. It is a well known convention that you are known by the company you keep. On that basis alone (Rezko, Wright, Ayers, Dohrn, et al.), Senator Obama should hang his head in shame and scurry off the national stage sooner rather than later.

Why in the name of all that is holy do so few people seem to realize what a utter and complete humbug the man really is?

And why is it I keep hearing the theme song from "JAWS"!?

IF YOU WANT TO SEE MORONS MARCHING, COME TO THE DISTRICT!

Today our Nation’s capital is being treated to the more-than-questionable joys of multiple protests being held all over the place by anti-war/anti-capitalism/anti-who-knows-what protesters. I don’t know what bonehead issued permits for protesters to bedevil sane, hard-working, law-abiding citizens during the work week, but the person in the District’s bureaucracy who is responsible should have his/her derriere kicked by every single citizen who was irritated or inconvenienced by this asinine rabble.

This, from the protesters' website:
"Twenty-four hours from when we began, we will gather at the Reflecting Pool on the West side of the Capitol at 5:00 PM and march with pots and pans in a cacophony of resistance to the Democratic National Committee Headquarters. Here we will make it clear that we hold them accountable for the death, destruction and lies and that we will . . . continue to take action and intervene in their business until our call for peace is honored and all of our troops come home."

So they started at 5:00 p.m. yesterday, which means they have screwed up TWO return trips home for people who have worked hard all day and who have usually endured a wretched commute IN and will, thanks to these self-involved morons, enjoy a similarly unpleasant commute home. My only comfort is that this time the ignorant horde is pissed off at the Democratic Party! What unbelievably sanctimonious arrogance!

I’m sure taxicab drivers are quickly reaching critical mass, since these petulant idiots are doubtless impairing the taxicabs’ ability to earn a living as well! What we'll face heading home is anybody's guess. Hopefully the pinheads won't create any problems for our progress home.

Why do these offensive twits all show up in our Nation’s capital looking like unmade beds? Do they EVER bathe? Do they believe it makes their activities more persuasive if nobody dares get downwind of them? Do they think that those of us who earn the money that makes it possible for them to be parasitical nincompoops deserve no basic courtesy?

Here’s my bottom line: These activities will accomplish not one blessed thing because however many pathetic losers show up to “march with pots and pans in a cacophony of resistance” they are a negligible percentage compared to the Americans who understand the reality of the world as it is – not as these brain dead cretins imagine the world to be. We cannot defeat radical Islamo fascism by joining hands and singing “Kumbaya”. All yesterday and today’s activities will accomplish is to once again send the wrong message to our enemies who fail to grasp the true workings and nature of the American Republic, not to mention pissing me off!
