Dear PETA. No one asked for you to comment on Obama's killing the fly. If anything should be criticized, it should be the unreasonable amount of attention given to the President on a daily basis, to the point where his killing a fly becomes the top news story of the
week.
Suck it, PETA.But seriously, PETA. You are bitching about Obama killing a fly, but not his taking a huge camera crew to
Five Guys, a burger joint without a single vegetarian sandwich option, or his going to
Ray's Hell Burger with Biden?
You're a lot like the boy who cried "Wolf," PETA. Keep whining about trivial things like this and no one will listen when you have real--forgive the pun--beef. This is almost as stupid as your
protesting "The Passion of the Christ" for its reflection of societal indifference to the suffering of animals.
Is it just me or is PETA that dude at every party who interjects unwanted opinions into others' conversations? If PETA were a superhero it would be Aquaman, because no one gives a shit about either one of them.
Good one, PETA! PETA's logic seems to argue that a fly is an animal, Obama killed a fly, and therefore he has violated the Ethical Treatment of Animals to which these People devote themselves.
What do you guys think -am I wrong to think PETA is being unreasonable? And what do you think: does a fly count as an animal? Have you ever killed a fly before?

What if the fly killed Obama? that would have been called "racism"?
A fly is a bug. It's not a "mammal" or some sort. Flies should be swatted.
They live for a day. If Obama didn't kill it, time would have. Idiots.
As opposed to what a lot of people are saying, PETA haven't freaked out about this.
Don't get me wrong, I can't stand PETA, but they haven't done anything wrong this time. They were asked to comment on something, and they did... so I guess, that you can't really say that nobody asked them to comment. Also, from what I've read on their site, they really don't seem to be against the fact that Obama killed a fly at all.
But I say that we should kill flies, and eat them with lots of ketchupy goodness.
@Secret_Qt@xanga - @kassieisradxO@xanga - bugs count as animals, and they live longer than a day!
that said, so what if obama swatted a fly. good grief! there's millions of them anyway and they mostly spread germs around. what is a fly's benefit to society? it helps the spread of viruses... woohoo. some of them pollinate plants. okay, but so do tons of other insects, birds, and bats. and they feed spiders. now, that is a purpose i like! =)
THIS IS ANIMAL CRUELTYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! he needs to be put in jail!
@NiDH0GG@xanga - LOL nice.
But seriously, probably. :\
Peta is so frikin retarded, they should all go die
I think I have swatted the odd fly in my life.
i scoffed when that made headlines this morning. what a fucking joke!
@NiDH0GG@xanga - i like your thinking
:)
lol i laughed at this because it sounds so funny.
@pinkkiex53@xanga - well, just tried to see things from a different perspective..or my perspective..as usual...
LOL at "If PETA were a superhero it would be Aquaman, because no one gives a shit about either one of them."
This thing is absolutely ridiculous.
PETA is like the oldest running joke ever.
I hate Peta and all but to be serious I haven't really heard anything from them complaining about Obama killing the fly.
@TheSpaceBass@xanga - LOL!!!!!
meh, taxonomy considers it an "animal," but that doesn't change the fact that PETA is insanely unreasonable.
who hasnt?
I hate those idiots, funny I posted a hate blog against PETA yesterday about the Obama fly incident, but took it down because nobody read it, well 1 did....
at least your blog, tho FAR more merciful than mine .. is read by the masses. thanks!
I think PETA is that kid that no one likes and he knows it so he finds reasons to get the other kids in trouble when he really just needs to stop getting butt hurt so easily and grow some balls.
So Obama killed a fly and it got caught on video...WHOOOOO cares?!?! PETA is so annoying. Who likes flies? Not many people. Really, who cares?
They think honey is bee abuse...and they they call it "bee puss" when everyone knows it's bee spit.
if it were up to me, i'd go around swatting peta members instead of flies...with a baseball bat. what does it take for these guys? have they really been so insulated from the past of their own people......where humans died of starvation and relied on hunting for subsistence? i say we should change hunting, and issue licenses for those so-called evil men with rifles to control the PETA population....it's obviously out of control. Think a bag limit of two would be reasonable?
The PeTA's comment on Obama swatting a helpless fly is PeTA's RULING, and lemme tell you something: I would not want to humiliate myself in front of two million representatives of the People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals. If you live to be a hundred years old, you're not gonna be smarter then PeTA. On your best day, anti-PeTA people, you're not as smart as I am on my worst day -- WHEN I'M SLEEPING!!!
I would not want to humiliate myself in front of two million representatives of the People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals if I were you, that is.
I have e-mailed Ingrid Newkirk of this website. I shall prevail.
