Humane Society has Endorsed a Presidential Candidate!

This quote from the Humane Society’s statement of its unprecedented endorsement of a presidential candidate:

”…..Gov. Sarah Palin’s (R-Alaska) retrograde policies on animal welfare and conservation have led to an all-out war on Alaska’s wolves and other creatures. Her record is so extreme that she has perhaps done more harm to animals than any other current governor in the United States.

Palin engineered a campaign of shooting predators from airplanes and helicopters, in order to artificially boost the populations of moose and caribou for trophy hunters. She offered a $150 bounty for the left foreleg of each dead wolf as an economic incentive for pilots and aerial gunners to kill more of the animals, even though Alaska voters had twice approved a ban on the practice. This year, the issue was up again for a vote of the people, and Palin led the fight against it – in fact, she helped to spend $400,000 of public funds to defeat the initiative…….”

They are endorsing Obama/Biden.
