...Your comments about my comprehension of what "parody" means is a parody of your own reading comprehension. Sure got a good laugh out of it. Thanks for playing along.

"it seems to me that MAN, even cromagna man eat meat, its what kept man ALIVE BEFORE IDIOTS STARTED TAKING SUPLIMANTS to allow them to survive on vegtables, which IF YOU KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT HUMAN BIOLOGY, we CANT DIGEST."
You just can't make this up.

We don't have the extra THIRTY FEET of small intestine and multiple stomachs nor the complex enzymes needed to extract sufficient proteins from nothing but veggies. Cattle, horses, deer, and bison DO. Look at baboons. Think those killer canines are just for looks? They are omnivores just like us although more closely related to modern liberals.

Try bowhunting in the suburbs for the "rats with hooves" decimating gardens and vegetable plots thanks to overprotection by the bunny huggers.
That's MY idea of "fast food"! I also share over 50% of the meat in a good season with the various food shelters unders Hunters for the Hungry. We do NOT force feed "tofurkey" to homeless folk. They have it hard enough.

People for the Eating of Tasty Animals...
Grace, maybe we can dress you up like a turkey in that commercial? Palin hunts for Liberal Turkeys...Now that would be funny. Maybe when SNL invites her to host?

is make a commercial of Palin standing in front of the turkey killing machine, like she did last year.
That interview alone was enough to turn us all off turkey meat --- and yes, the poor birds in the background getting killed were too.

PETA suffers from the same problem as Limbaugh and Michael Moore. They're not trying to explain things and change attitudes. They're preaching to their choir, and that's enough for them. As I said before, there are more and more sobering facts coming out about how meat is processed, and it's changing people's minds. Childish groups like PETA are hurting, not helping.

...From Maryland who blast e-mails to local paper editorial pages and ours dutifully obliged. In one editorial she tried to elicit sympathy for chickens on the way to the processing plant by expressing the fear they feel as discovered by an "avian psychologist". All I could think of after reading that was "wow...a shrink for a bird brain... just damn".

We're trying to go organic as much as we can, as well as trying to buy food from outfits that raise their animals humanely.
Conservatives should read Rod Dreher's book, "The Crunchy Cons".

I think PETA is mostly ridiculous but my family has switched to paying more for free range meat. I don't think God intended for animals to be stewarded the way the BIG-AG companies do it. I also think that animal testing doesn't make sense since we have different physiologies.
However, we do agree with the wholesale slaughter of chemically enhanced vegetables!

They're animals and dumb ones at that. Like any other animal, they live to eat and reproduce. That's it! Eat up America!

...dead dogs and cats makes PETA to animal rights what owlgore is to global warming. They love a good slaughter video unless it's one of their own. Even they have no answer for unwanted dogs and cats.

PETA's their own worst enemy, no argument. But check out some of the recent books about how the food we eat gets to our table. More and more Americans of all different political and religious persuasions are giving up meat because the truth about how it is raised is, quite literally, sickening.
No, I'm not one of them. And no, I'm not telling you what to do. But facts is facts.
