Are you kidding me????

Just saw a snipett on the news, PETA is ticked at Obama for killing a FLY?????
They are sending him a Fly CATCHER now and hoping that he will be more humane in the future.

Yeah... reality truly is stranger than fiction!

 

[hiwaygal]

PETA is whacked...ignore them.

You know what? When I read that yesterday in the news, my first thought was - watch and see there will be some group somewhere that will have a problem with him squishing that fly! Give me a break! That guy is under so much scrutiny, he can't scratch his butt without People Against Butt Scratching calling him out!!

 

[kaytieeldr]

Ah, excuse me while I go start the new People Against Public Patootie Scracthing (PAPPS) lunatic organization

Not saying PETA doesn't do some good things - but flies? Next thing you know, they'll be protecting cockroaches

 

[Ilivetogo]

Saw that this morning ... all I was thinking was

"OH BROTHER"!!!

 

[Heidict]

Saw that yesterday and it had me laughing. The guy has to worry about the war, the economy and now flies?

Excuse me while I eat my CHICKEN for lunch. Mmmm, lipsmackin delicious.

 

[Hollywoodhaha]

Ahaha..
Oh, goodness.

 

[Cosmo.Kramer]

What a joke. 'Yes we can'? more like 'No we can't (squash a fly)'!

 

[Jennasis]

Oooh...they'd hate me then. Automatic fly sprayers in my barn. Lots of fly spray applied to my horses. If it flys, it dies! That's my mantra. not to mention the snakes I've killed, the mice my barn cats have killed, the baby bird they got yesterday...

 

[Mermaid02]

If PETA had a SHRED of credibility- it is now gone. Gimme a flippin break. Where's the fly smackin smiley????

 

[MichelleVW]

DH told me about that this morning....I think PETA is whacked anyway...

"Swatting a fly on TV indicates he's not perfect."

 

[TIAMOMMA]

Maybe I'm not the sharpest tool in the shed, but how is killing a fly via swatter more humane than by hand???

 

[binny]

Actually I was impressed by his aim. That takes talent to kill a fly on the first try!

It's not a swatter, it's a catcher, so they can be released.

 

[MamaLema]

I stopped caring what they had to say years ago, when they had a campaign targeting young people to drink beer instead of milk. I even think of a celebrity in a different light when they are a PETA supporter.

 

[TIAMOMMA]

It's not a swatter, it's a catcher, so they can be released.

Sorry, I saw fly catcher and automatically thought swatter. Are fly catchers popular? I've never seen one before, then again I'm not really interested in "relocating" pesky flies.

 

[binny]

I dont think this is what they had in mind

I agree they have done a lot good things but often they do go overboard. This fly thing is a very good example.
