Germaine Greer’s fifteen minutes of fame expired years ago. The once prominent feminist is now struggling to find a new cause célèbre that can restart the clock. Oddly enough, she seems to have settled on the plight of her favorite flower.
Outspoken Australian feminist Germaine Greer has launched a stinging attack on domestic dogs, blaming them for the ruination of a protected perennial flower, the English bluebell.
Addressing Britain’s Hay Festival on Thursday, the 72-year-old Melbourne-born academic who owns a patch of land covered in the plant that flowers in spring, pointed the finger at toxic dog poo for the plant’s scarcity.
”If you love your bluebells, kill your dog,” said Greer dramatically…
Overdramatically, actually.
Toxic dog poo. Watch out, Rachel Carson. Here comes Germaine Greer with a new book called “Silent but Deadly Spring.”

Well, as it turns out, Rachel Carson was wrong (or, a lying sack of crap) so I guess Ms. Greer is in good company. I suggest that other then killing dogs, she could scoop it up herself whilst patting herself on the back for once again cleaning up after those brutish doggie owners who are no doubt conservatives. A double win!
She is a fine example of female scum necessary to willingly propogate Fred Phelp's inbred congregation. Before this article I had my doubts it existed.
That's it. She's a bitch.
If you follow the link to the Sydney Morning Herald, there is this wonderful piece of lunacy: "At the risk of making you all very cross, may I suggest that it is time the British gave up on their endless love affair with the dog."
May the Queen's corgis poop all over her bluebells.
I wish I knew her address, I'd send her a whole bag full of "Meadow Muffins" as Homer likes to call them.
My Dog says "Piss on her"
Good boy gets a biscuit!
If he manages to do it, I shall give him a treat.
This dingbat needs a confrontation with a dingo!
It's amazing how the self-styled elitist "intelligentsia" can't concieve of rational non-extreme solutions to problems. A dog pees on her stupid flowers so that means all dogs must be exterminated. Atmospheric carbon dioxide goes up a little bit (or not) and we (not them, WE) gotta all walk to work and live like Fred Flintstone. A small segment of the population doesn't have health insurance (although they still get medical care) so we gotta nationalize the damn industry so everybody can get to sit in hospitall hallways for 6 months like the British. What the hell does this bozo do when she gets a wrong number phone call? Call for a nuke attack on the phone company? Yikes, what a bunch of dingbats.
Ya might try fencing to keep the dog out of the flowers first, ya goofy moonbat.
Blood thirsty lot, ain't they?
If you love your dog, kill Germaine Greeer.
