Proving once again that they has Jumped the Shark, the animal rights organization PETA has approached actor George Clooney with the idea of making Tofu made from his sweat. And, NO, it’s not an April Fools Joke in spite of the post date. PETA president Ingrid Newkirk has been offered his gym towel and wants to use his sweat to create the delicacy that will “spare animals from being killed for the table.” PETA’s Star Gimmick Is Tough to Swallow. Not near as appetizing as the time they sent a letter to Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenfield, cofounders of Ben & Jerry’s Ice Cream urging them to replace cow’s milk they use in their products with human breast milk.
Amusing enough stunts, not near as bad as PETA’s ongoing campaign to indoctrinate kids with propaganda. In the past PETA has but out comic books aimed at kids informing them how “Your Mommy Kills Animals” and an anti-fishing pamphlet showing dad ripping open a fish. Wonder if PETA ever thought of taking there No Fishing stance to arctic region? “Sorry Nanok, got to save the fish, try eating more snow”
All this from an organization that according to government documents killed more than 19,200 dogs, cats, puppies, and kittens since 1998. I guess their thinking is “Better Dead than Pets”. They have an idea of TOTAL animal liberation. This means the complete abolition of meat, milk, cheese, eggs, honey, zoos, aquariums, circuses, wool, leather, fur, silk, hunting, fishing, and pet ownership, let not forget the terrible repression of seeing-eye dogs. Medical research is right out. PETA’s president has said that “even if animal research resulted in a cure for AIDS, we would be against it.” In 2007 PETA’s Ingrid Newkirk broke her wrist…
Just as I was setting out to launch my new book, Let’s Have a Dog Party!, I met a wet floor and went splat, neatly snapping the bones in my wrist. Ooh, the pain! Thank goodness for IV drips…
Maybe Ingrid was not aware the IV drip mechanism was tested on several species of animals during the 1930s, and the pain drugs she was on was most likely tested on animals. She is not the only one who has let their principles slide when push comes to shove. Others include hepatitis-C carrying PETA spokesbimbo Pamela Anderson, insulin diabetic PETA Vice President Mary Beth Sweetland, and Simon Chaitowitz of the animal rights Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine, a breast cancer survivor. These three women owe their lives to medical research that required the use of animals.
