I would imagine that y\'all are plenty happy that I don\'t have any time right now to spend on this! LOL Obviously you\'ve seen that I haven\'t been around for awhile. Just saw something that reminded me I wanted to take a quick look at the Forum to see what\'s up.
All I will say on this subject is that it doesn\'t take a genius or rocket scientist to see that CNN has a very skewed perspective on their World View. They talk about \"family values\" before they break for commercial that advertises some \"adult\" network. The constantly run those stupid HSUS commercials with the sad looking puppy dogs and tear-jerking music in the background while begging you to send in your dollars to help \"save\" the animals. What they forget to mention is that most of those animals will be put down & a lot of that money will be spent on other things. They fail to mention that the Humane Society is the largest anti-hunting and anti-trapping organization in the country.
Last night CNN had a special part of their broadcast devoted to all the dogs & cats that are being turned in by people in LA who can\'t afford to keep them anymore because they\'ve lost their jobs due to the oil spill. They actually expect BP to give people money so they can feed their pets & keep them!
And lastly, these kinds of efforts are nothing more than supposed \"good intentions\" by supposed \"well-meaning\" people that unfortunately believe animals should have all the same rights and privileges that a human being does. You should have seen the absolute onslaught of vicious, vile, vulgar, and venomous attacks that people spewed on me just because I happened to say one time that animals were created after their own kind and humans were created in the image of God and that it does neither animals nor humans any good to personify animals and equate them to human beings.
Ever sense Walt Disney created Bambi and personified animals, many people have attributed to animals the same emotions, feelings, intellect, and what-have-you that humans have.
Thus we get specials like that on CNN...
God Bless,
