CANDIDATES AND OTHERS AND THE ANIMALS
Poster welcomes your additions and corrections.. this is only
an infinitesimal fraction of the data on this subject.
ALL ANIMALS AND REPUBLICAN LEADERS
9 of the 10 announced Republican
candidates, as well as Fred Thompson
and Newt Gingrich support the
continued bombing of the animals
and people of Afghanistan and Iraq.
DOGS AND REPUBLICAN LEADERS
Romney drove 12 hours with his
dog on the roof.. breaking Massachusetts law.
http://wbztv.com/local/local_story_180132351.html
Judy Giuliani worked for US Surgical
which carves up dogs and which has framed animal rights
activists. (Keith Olbermann: source
for her employment by company)
Jack Danforth, one of 2 Republicans elected to the Senate from
Missouri after the Democratic candidate died in a mysterious plane
crash (Jerry Little in 76, Mel Carnahan in 2002) ... was the major
Purina heir. Purina harms dogs by advertising that they need the
animal flesh which shortens their life expectancy. Purina puts
toxin laden meat in their food though vegan diet is best for them.
Purina
also exterminated its Sutherland
Springs Texas cows for 'meningitis'
(or Mad Cow?)
www.pcrm.org
Caspar Weinberger, Secretary of Defense under Ronald Reagan (who
doubled the speed of meat inspection lines so that carcinogenic
animal corpses whizzed by inspectors), instituted a dogshooting lab
for US military surgeon surgical practice. When PETA and other
animal groups objected, the victims were changed from dogs to goats.
Dogs are used as minesniffers in Iraq, Afghanistan and elsewhere.
CATS AND REPUBLICAN LEADERS
President McKinley's wife drowned
2 angora cats (MSNBC Keith Olbermann
show)
Eisenhower ordered cats on the
White House grounds shot
Former Republican Senate majority (because of Diebold) leader Bill
Frist
obtained cats by lying to Boston
animal shelters and then
carved them up at Harvard med school
before becoming a billionaire by
stealing from Medicare and Medicaid.
Frist is a Thompson supporter.
Republican appointees such
as Julie Gerberding at CDC, who supervises primate torture at the CDC
before going to her Emory job.
At Emory, cats are tortured.

HORSES
The two biggest horse slaughterhouses in the US are in Republican
run Texas
Republicans have engineered the rounding up of wild mustangs
(not an endorsement of the Democratic Senate and House)
MICE
All Republican candidates support
lab torture (vivisection) of animals
paid for with stolen tax dollars.
Fred Thompson has taken many
dollars from vivisecting pharmaceutical
companies with their pricegouging
toxic products.
COWS
Romney, Tancredo, Brownback
are linked to animal agribusiness
and cattle concentration camps
financially and politically. They support
the cowboys, not the cows.
PIGS
Former Governor Gilmore helped
Smithfield become the worst factory
farm in the nation, a pig concentration
camp, an Abu Ghraib for animals, which has filled the Atlantic
with pig waste
Sam Alito, nominated for an unelected
position on the Supreme Court (one
of last unelected high courts in the
world) bought much stock in
slaughterhouse invested Vanguard
and twice broke his promise to
recuse himself in Vanguard cases
before the court.
FERRETS
A tape of a Giuliani talk show in which
he is abusing a ferret pet companion
was played several times on network
tv. It is available many places on the
internet. Giuliani stings and stings
and stings again.
http://www.rudygiulianivideos.com/v...iuliani&index=8
http://www.peta.net/feat/military (one paragraph in the PETA report
is disputed).
BIRDS
Antonin Scalia who has serially killed
prisoners with his pen as weapon
went hunting with Dick Cheney
where besides killing birds they
illegally discussed cases before the
court.
Chuck Grassley (as well as Feingold
and Harkin) changed the way
baby chicks are shipped. Their
humane legislation protections
have been removed. They are shipped
often in flimsy cardboard containers
.. they can be smashed or die
of heat or thirst or cold sitting on
loading docks. These baby chick
females and males have been
classified as commercial mail.
George Voinovich introduced
legislation to allow the hunting
of federally protected migrating birds
John Cornyn, senator from Texas,
helped Dick Cheney kill over 400
birds in 1 day in Rolling Rock Pennsylvania where cage raised
birds were released in nets directly
in front of Cheney's hunting party.
"Shooting fish in a barrel" does not
describe this action.
Update on US candidates' positions on animals
(When Republican candidates are noted, may it be remembered
that they represent a tiny segment of the population. 55%
are unregistered. 60% of the remaining 45% are 3rd party
or independent. Of the remaining 18% over 2/3 are Democrats.
Registered
Republicans are a single digit
percentage of the US population.
CANDIDATE POSITIONS ON ANIMALS
15 of the 18 announced candidates in the Democratic
and Republican parties are prowar, in the sense that they
are willing to vote or have voted for $ for the war. Therefore 15 have
funded the bombing of animals as well as of children. Every Republican
candidate
but McCain and Paul is in favor
of 'exhanced interrogation techniques'
a code word for torture.
All but 1 of the 10 announced Republican candidates define
themselves as prolife, by which they mean only human fetal life, not
support of prisoners' right not
to be deprived of life through execution.
. In
the area of humans many Republicans exempt prisoners
from their prolife positions.
Only Kucinich http://kucinich.us Gravel and Ron Paul have a strong
history of antiwar work.
Kucinich is the only vegan in the 2 major parties running for
president.
KUCINICH
Only one of the 3 antiwar candidates
(Gravel, Paul, Kucinich) running for president who is a vegan
http://kucinich.us
GRAVEL
Mike Gravel has a wonderful record
re peace except for the animals.
As senator from Alaska he represented
that state's hunters and fishermen.
JOHN EDWARDS, ELECTED VICE PRESIDENT OF THE US IN 2004
supports the continuation of the
war in Afghanistan with its consequent
killing and maiming of people and
animals. In the area of US citizens,
Edwards has a strong populist record.
May Elizabeth Edwards be healed of
her cancer and educate the public
about meat, fish and animal products
as the chief cause.
BARACK OBAMA
Barack Obama like most Illinois politicians has a cozy relationship
with unionbuster
McDonald's which he has praised. His wife is a spokesperson for
vivisection as a VP
of Univ of Chicago Hospitals.
CLINTON
Hillary Clinton helped make Don Tyson the nation's biggest butcher of
cows, pigs and chickens.
She invested in cattle futures
(the cattle whose deaths she invested
in had no future). She has
publicly endorsed the brutal
Heifer Int'l projects in which baby
animals are shipped alone overseas
to slavery and death. Clinton
served on the animal abusing
WalMart board. Her husband allowed
Dan Glickman to muzzle the truth
about Mad Cow, Mad Pig, Mad Chicken,
Mad Deer, Mad Fish, Mad Sheep
and other spongiform encephalopathy
diseases.
She has voted for vivisector money
and for campaigns in which people
and animals were bombed
DODD
Has voted money for vivisection
BIDEN
Has voted money for vivisection
ROMNEY
calls himself a devout Mormon. The Mormon church owns
the nation's biggest cattle ranch. The Mormon church supports
the illegal war ventures of the US regime, with consequent
death to animals from bombs, from military lab research etc. Romney's
250 million
forture (he has not released tax returns or holding statements) is
derived partly from
Bain Capital which he cofounded, a private equity (secretive) fund
invested in
steakhouse restaurants. Romney
supports torture and the continuation
of the war in Iraq. The LDS history
and present in relation to African
Americans and women has not
been explored by neocon debate
questioners.
MCCAIN
bombed animals in Vietnam, has a 0% environment voting
record, is in favor of continued bombing of animals in Iraq
and Afghanistan.
BROWNBACK
Sam Brownback, senator, calls himself prolife while spending
much of his time promoting the interests of Kansas slaughterhouse
owners, cowboys and butchers.
TOMMY THOMPSON
as governor of Wisconsin was an agent of the powerful Wisconsin
animal slavery dairy lobby, which industry has recently been given
$250 million in subsidies by the Congress. http://www.notmilk.com
million
HUCKABEE
Huckabee is a hunter and murdered in the name of the state
several Arkansans.
HUNTER
Hunter is an operative for war profiteers like San Diego based
Titan (mercenaries).
GILMORE
As governor of Virginia, Gilmore
besides executing prisoners
facilitated the execution of billions
of 'farm' animals in concentration
camps such as Smithfield which
in addition filled the rivers of the
region and the Alantic with pfiesteria
from pig waste.
TANCREDO
represents Colorado cowboys
not Colorado's cows.
Hillary Clinton has been good
in domestic legislation re pets
but made $100,000 on cattle futures
insider trading (cattle had no future),
helped Don Tyson became the
nation's biggest butcher of cows
pigs and chickens.
(This poster supports Kucinich, an antiwar vegan. Whether or not
you think he can win, the more
delegates he has, the further
the engine on the train of peace
will pull the caboose of war promoters. http://kucinich.us
There are 3 candidates in the 2 major parties with virtually lifetime
positions of opposition to war and its consequent bombing of animals
and their habitat. These are Mike Gravel, Ron Paul and Dennis
Kucinich.)
