PETA comes unglued trying to unscrew the pooch

A rabbinical council in Israel has convicted a dog of housing the spirit of a lawyer and has sentenced the unfortunate creature to death by stoning.

A rabbinical council in Israel has convicted a dog of housing the spirit of a lawyer and has sentenced the unfortunate creature to death by stoning.

While this may be an off-the-wall sentence, we’re sure the court must have had its reasons. In the meantime, having PETA attempt to claim some form of moral superiority is absurd.

Law school was easy compared to the circumcision

“By sentencing an innocent animal to a painful death for such an absurd reason, this rabbinical court has not only completely discredited itself but also violated tza’ar ba’alei chayim (“the suffering of living creatures”) — one of the most important principles in Judaism,” PETA said in a statement Thursday.

“Rabbi Levin should be given a mandatory psychiatric evaluation, and PETA intends to call for criminal charges against him for inciting cruelty to animals,” the statement continued.

There’s a lot of posturing and douchebaggery in the comments surrounding this article, but the case does raise one vital question:

How can you tell if your dog houses the reincarnated spirit of a lawyer?

Sounds like a cry for a top five list:

5) Screws everything in sight.
4) Miserable cur is no one’s best friend.
3) Screws everything in sight.
2) Chases only ambulances.

And the number one way to tell if your dog houses the reincarnated spirit of a lawyer?

1) Screws everything in sight.

Revise the tourist maps: PETA wants to rename San Francisco’s Tenderloin district

Just as we were thinking, “You know, we haven’t heard anything stupid from PETA lately,” the animal rights wackos have plumbed new depths of inanity.

Just as we were thinking, “You know, we haven’t heard anything stupid from PETA lately,” the animal rights wackos have plumbed new depths of inanity.

People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (which technically, should be PFTETOA, not PETA) sent a letter to the mayor of San Francisco requesting that the city’s Tenderloin District be renamed the “Tempeh District.”

tenderloin-district
How about if they called it Homeless Town or Shopping Cart City or Result-of-Liberal-Policies-ville?

In case you’re as unfamiliar with tempeh as we were, Mrs Editor confidently states that it’s a traditional Indonesian soy dish. (Looks like all those hours watching the Food Channel have finally paid off.)

NBC Bay Area has the letter and the story:

“I am writing on behalf of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) and our more than 2 million members and supporters, including thousands in the Bay Area, with an idea that could help revitalize the struggling Tenderloin district: rename it the “Tempeh District.” By discarding an outdated moniker that evokes the horrors of the meat trade, you’ll be sending a strong message to progressive businesses and health-conscious residents that this neighborhood is ready for a fresh start.”

The letter goes on to explain how tempeh is healthier and cruelty-free, while tenderloin is full of suffering.

Reiman goes on to offer other suggestions if Tempeh doesn’t have the right ring to it,

“If Tempeh doesn’t excite you, how about Granola Flats or Seitan’s Lair? You could even run a contest to choose a veggie moniker.”

We’d open this contest up to our readers, but we’re pretty sure you lunatics would all come up with names like “Tube Steak Town.”

We’re not gonna go there.

A hilarious commercial and a life lesson: When will the IHTM Editor learn to listen to the IHTM Administrator?

Dodge used a monkey in the to advertise its annual Tent Event. PETA complained, so Dodge re-cut the commercial to address the leftist lunatics’ concerns. And it was funnier than ever.

About two weeks ago, IHateTheMedia.com’s Administrator emailed a funny commercial over to IHTM’s Editor, who promptly ignored it. (For god’s sake, man, the guy sends me 50 emails a day. I can’t pay attention to all of them.)

Now, much to the Editor’s chagrin, he saw the same commercial over at The Big Feed and found out it really was hilarious.

That being said, the Editor would like to thank The Big Feed and apologize to the Administrator.

So enough with the thanks and the apologies. Here’s the story on the commercial: Dodge used a monkey in the to advertise its annual Tent Event. PETA complained, so Dodge re-cut the commercial to address the leftist lunatics’ concerns. Here’s the original version:

And here’s the even funnier re-cut version:

When will PETA and the ACLU condemn illegal aliens?

We’re eagerly awaiting a press release from PETA supporting Arizona’s anti-illegal alien law and condemning cockfighting and another press release from the ACLU supporting the law and condemning the weapons.

Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio recently rounded up a bunch of illegal aliens and charged them with cockfighting and possession of illegal weapons.

So now we’re eagerly awaiting a press release from PETA supporting Arizona’s anti-illegal alien law and condemning cockfighting and another press release from the ACLU supporting the law and condemning the weapons.

MyFoxPhoenix.com has the details:

We love Chelsea Handler because she’s funny. And because she’s hot. Mostly because she’s hot.

In this clip, Handler takes on the stupidity of The Real Housewives of New York. Yeah, we admit she sounds like a commercial for PETA, but c’mon, if you have to take sides between PETA and the Real Housewives franchise, this may be the one time PETA wins.

Chelsea Handler’s a lib, but she’s a damn funny one. Kind of like Dennis Miller was funny even back when he was a lib.

The really odd couple: Glenn Beck joins forces with president of PETA

What could possibly bring these two diametrically opposed forces together? Three words: Al Gore, hypocrite.

Liberal cannibalism: the wackos at PETA versus the wackos at NOW

Welcome to tonight’s main event. In one corner, we have the lunatics from PETA, who believe nothing is more important than saving animals. In the other corner, we have the wackos from NOW who believe every woman is beautiful.

There’s nothing more entertaining – absolutely nothing – than when leftist special interest groups square off against each other.

Welcome to tonight’s main event. In one corner, we have the lunatics from PETA, who believe nothing is more important than saving animals. In the other corner, we have the wackos from NOW who believe every woman is beautiful.

This may be the first time we’ve ever thrown our support behind PETA.

PETA jumps the shark, asks Phish to change its name

Well, if some of PETA’s past concepts hadn’t already jumped the shark, it’s latest one has. They’ve asked the rock group Phish to change its name to Sea Kitten.

Don't miss <s>Phish</s> Sea Kitten when they come to your town
Don't miss Phish Sea Kitten when they come to your town

“Jump the shark” is a Hollywood phrase that means “to undergo a storyline development which is so ridiculous that previous quality is considered to have been lost.” It comes from an episode of Happy Days in which Fonzie jumped his motorcycle over a tank of sharks.

Well, if some of PETA’s past concepts hadn’t already jumped the shark, it’s latest one has. They’ve asked the rock group Phish to change its name to Sea Kitten.

“In this way, people might come to view fish the way they see cats and dogs, as smart and sensitive animals worthy of care and protection, said Ashley Byrne, a PETA senior campaigner.



“We felt that fish needed an image overall,” she continued. “They don’t receive the sympathy of the more cuddly animals. We thought that by rebranding fish as sea kittens, they might receive the compassion they deserve.”

If this is successful, PETA has its work cut out. They’ll also have to get in touch with A Flock of Seagulls, Adam Ant, the Animals, Beatles, Beastie Boys, Black Crowes, Blue Oyster Cult, Boomtown Rats, Buffalo Springfield, Byrds, Country Joe & the Fish, Crazy Horse, Buddy Holly & the Crickets, Def Leppard, Eagles, Echo & the Bunnymen, Fishbone, Hootie & the Blowfish, Howlin’ Wolf, Iron Butterfly, Los Lobos, Monkees, Pet Shop Boys, Psychedelic Furs, Ratt, Scorpions, Snoop Dogg, Steppenwolf, Stray Cats, T. Rex, Three Dog Night, Turtles, Whitesnake, Wolfmother, and, of course, the Yardbirds.

Obama’s fly starts tweeting, generates lots of buzz

The pesky fly that met its untimely end on camera at the hand of President Obama has been reborn online. Follow the fly here on Twitter.

obama fly Peta

First Obama’s Teleprompter started its own blog. Now the swat heard ’round the world has reverberated into the Twittersphere. The pesky fly that met its untimely end on camera at the hand of President Obama has been reborn online. Follow the fly here:

@aflyobamakilled

Here’s the first post when the fly woke up as its reincarnated Twitter self:

Hey, where am I? I was just chillin’ on a big hand when, bam, I wake up here!

Hmm. Sounds like bad karma: You’re a fly in one life. You get swatted. You come back again as a fly? Tough break.

Che Guevara’s granddaughter to star in new PETA ad campaign

Lydia Guevara, the smokin’ hot granddaughter of murderous Cuban revolutionary leader Che Guevara will appear semi-nude in a new PETA ad campaign.

Lydia Guevera PETA nude
No baby carrots were harming in the production of this ad.

Lydia Guevara, the smokin’ hot granddaughter of murderous Cuban revolutionary leader Che Guevara will appear semi-nude in a new PETA ad campaign.

She’ll be seen wearing camouflage pants, a red beret, and bandoliers filled with baby carrots.

The campaign will be launched in October in Argentina, where Che Guevara was born, then spread around the globe faster than a virulent strain of swine flu.

“It very much evokes the tag line of the ad, which is ‘Join the vegetarian revolution,'” said PETA spokesman Michael McGraw. “It’s an homage of sorts to her late grandfather.”

Apparently, McGraw knows a lot more about baby carrots than he does about history. Any honest homage to Che Guevera should include the rotting, stinking corpses of his innocent victims.

But that wouldn’t look nearly as good on a poster as his semi-nude granddaughter, would it?

Obama swats and kills fly. PETA complains and kills satire.

PETA, aka People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, should now stand for People for the Equivalent Treatment of Anything. The organization officially became a caricature of itself as it criticized President Obama for swatting a fly.

There’s really nothing left to satirize. Absolutely nothing. Soon The Onion will be running straight news, because everything has become parody.

PETA, aka People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, should now stand for People for the Equivalent Treatment of Anything. The organization officially became a caricature of itself as it criticized President Obama for swatting a fly.

“We support compassion even for the most curious, smallest and least sympathetic animals,” PETA spokesman Bruce Friedrich said. “Swatting a fly on TV indicates he’s not perfect.”

So to make sure it doesn’t happen again, PETA sent the president a Katcha Bug Humane Bug Catcher, which allows users to trap and release flies.

On the bright side, life must be practically heaven on earth when this is all you have to complain about.

For the record, we love animals and hate animal cruelty. But how is a fly the same as an animal? What’s next, equal rights for mosquitoes?

Animals had better odds with Michael Vick than with PETA

PETA euthanized 99.7% of the pets they were given.
PETA euthanized 99.7% of the pets they were given.
If you take your dog or cat to PETA, you expect them to get kind, loving treatment. But what they really get is euthanized at a shocking rate.

According to the latest statistics, the “so-called” animal rights organization killed 99.7% of the animals they receive.

The nonprofit Center for Consumer Freedom (CCF) published documents online showing that People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) killed 95 percent of the adoptable pets in its care during 2008. Despite years of public outrage over its euthanasia program, the animal rights group kills an average of 5.8 pets every day at its Norfolk, VA headquarters.

According to public records from the Virginia Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, PETA killed 2,124 pets last year and placed only seven in adoptive homes. Since 1998, a total of 21,339 dogs and cats have died at the hands of PETA workers.

To repeat, only seven out of 2,124 pets were adopted. And the rest were euthanized. That means they euthanized 99.7% of all the pets that were brought to them.

We don’t much like Obama, the IHateTheMedia.com office cat. But after reading this, we’d never turn him over to the animals at PETA.

Beagle voted Grand Kleagle? PETA compares kennel club to KKK

dog_close_upThe lunatics from PETA protested outside the Westminster Kennel Club dog show yesterday and compared the American Kennel Club to the Ku Klux Klan.

People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals contends that pure-breeding is harmful to dogs’ health.

One banner said, “Welcome AKC Members,” but “AKC” was crossed out replaced by “KKK.” PETA protesters dressed up in KKK garb, complete with white robes and tall, pointy hats.

Inside the arena, the AKA announced that only white dogs would be considered for Best of Show and dark colored dogs were forced to drink their water from separate, but equal bowls.

Hot PETA women and their cucumbers

We’re happy to report that General Motors isn’t spending $3,000,000 for a Super Bowl commercial this year. But what about other advertisers?

Is it wise to spend that much money on one commercial in this economic downturn? Surprisingly, many advertisers say, “Yes, it’s a bargain.”

Their rationale? The Super Bowl draws an immense audience and is, perhaps, the only programming on television that causes consumers to “lean forward” and watch the commercials.

No one will be leaning forward and watching the attached PETA commercial because it was rejected by the television network. Talk about your wardrobe malfunction.
