Obama pisses off PETA

[Eric the Grey]

The President's quick hands have landed him in hot water from PETA for his killing of a fly on national television:

All I can say is:

Who doesn't upset PETA?

(Except for their own whom are high up in organization, they can do whatever they want.)

Wack a Kitty didn't.

But, Eric has the right response:

We've had a few PETA threads go down the pan over history. We've also got a few members of PETA on the board as members here. Can we keep it on the milder side, please?

Hey, I'll be the first to admit that I love animals, cows in particular... they taste delicious when properly cooked

OK... really bad joke I'll hide again now

Hang on - PETA, IIRC, stands for People for Ethical Treatment of Animals.
A fly is an insect, not an animal...

Around here the story was presented as "Obama Makes History - First Black President to Kill a Fly!"

Yes, however long it's been since the election, they're still amazed that he's the first black president to do anything.

I guess I'd better not tell anyone that I use the services of an exterminator.

But they are part of the animala (animal) kingdom...

This is the kind of crap that makes me not want to say I'm a member of peta.There has been many other incidents, but I don't want this to go to fratching so I'll leave it at that.

Must be a presidential thing. Obama gets in trouble for killing one and Clinton got in trouble for openning his.

Sheldon, that was brilliant

[ditchdj]

What about the people in third-world countries that eat insects, let alone kill them???

Gets my non-resident vote. That was hilarious!

When push comes to shove... I think the Pres went a lil overboard calling for a closeup of his kill... But he is only human...

Does the President hunt? I'm afraid to see the home video from that, hahahahaha.
