regarding Hillary, got a link that backs up the fact she was sending socks to a shelter?! seems to me she’s a bit too smart (and perhaps caring, OMG!) to send a high profile cat to a shelter. a trusted staff member took socks in because buddy and socks never got along and and socks is still living happily with the woman afaik. the clintons currently have 2 labs. she cared enough for socks to keep the kitty safe from not only buddy, but also while romping outdoors. she felt roaming free on the WH grounds wouldn’t be safe for socks or the wildlife and kept him on a long line while outside. (it can be seen in photos and socks is also leashed in many of the outdoor pics with them) she didn’t have socks for the camera’s, she had socks because of her daughter, who wanted the kitten (found?) when she was younger. she couldn’t take socks to college when they left the WH, which was part of the the staffer taking socks along with the buddy issue.

kevin, i sure hope you learn to get the facts before condemning people to death like a diseased animal.

I don’t think Mitt the idiot reads these posts. I don’t think he even reads a newspaper. If he had half a brain, he would already realize that the study has been done and the data is available.

This FOOL wants to spend more of the taxpayer’s money for something that has already been produced.

I wonder if he knows the Cold War is over or is he going to need a committee to tell him that also.

One of the answers to pet overpoplulation is low-cost spay/neuter programs. Another is to open up condos and other types of association-run housing to allow responsible pet owners/guardians to have animal companions.

So far California is the only state to have positive legislation that says people who live in association-run housing may have at least one companion animal.

Citizens FOR Pets in Condos is a 501-c3 tax exempt private operating foundation dedicated to increasing acceptance of companion animals in condos and other types of association-run housing. We educate the public about the health benefits of having animal companions and advocate for responsible pet ownership/guardianship. Our motto: “creating a win-win situation for both animals & people.”

Additionally, to see how the Clinton’s felt about their White House pet Buddy visit ::

the Clinton’s wrote nothing about this precious dog that lived with them..

“It was a horribly cruel, outrageous program,” Friends of Animals President Priscilla Feral said about the demonstrations of medical staplers on dogs conducted by U.S. Surgical Corp. employees during Giuliani’s tenure there in the late 1970s.

Feral said U.S. Surgical’s demonstrations on hundreds of dogs each year through the 1970s, 1980s and 1990s were done to boost sales, not for medical re search or testing.

The dogs were “either put to death following the sales demonstrations because they can’t re cover from them, or they die during them,” Feral said.

It just goes to show you that Hillary is nothing but image. Can you imagine the behind-the-scenes crap we will never hear about if she gets in to office?

The woman should be put down like a diseased animal.

Considering the average pet owner is unaware there is a pet population problem, I wouldn’t find it surprising a politicial would suffer from a similar level of ignorance.

On the other hand, considering the uproar over the pet food recall in the not so distant past, it is hard to imagine a politician being unaware that something on the order of 60% of the US population are pet owners. While the pet over population problem may not be a hot button issue, the recall certainly was. His answer indicates he didn’t care about an issue that affected a majority of the population by nearly a 2 to 1 margin enough to even look into the problem.

Personally, I’d like to see Ron Paul team up with Dennis Kucinich on an independent ticket and kick the Ds and Rs to the curb.

It makes me cringe to think what his solution would be about the overpopulation of pets. After all he simply straps his on the top of his car.
