Celebrity Boobs (or Knight Clubbing)

A few weeks back, Paul and Heather Mills McCartney came to P.E.I. (although they thought they were in Newfoundland and Labrador) on behalf of the Humane Society of the United States (HSUS) to rag on us about the cruel and needless slaughter of harp seal pups. Fair enough. Free speech and all that, but what a couple a wankers they turn out to be.

Later that night, these 2 twits got on the Larry King Spectacular News Extravaganza Hour spewing heaps of nonsense (see transcript at http://transcripts.cnn.com/TRANSCRIPTS/0603/03/lkl.01.html) making utter fools of themselves and doing a disservice to their cause. When our man Danny Williams reminded them of the billions of not-so-photogenic animals we perpetually bludgeon, slash, scald and electrocute, the best they could lob back was that people eat meat, people eat fish, people don't eat the seals. So, I guess animal cruelty is ok if we can make some burgers. Paul put in his 2 cents suggesting that our government (i.e.: us taxpayers) should prohibit the hunt and provide financial restitution to the would-be ex-sealers, which is a bit rich coming from a guy worth £1.1 billion. Another gem was their tear-jerking plea for the baby seals that “haven't even had a swim yet”.

How many birds cruelly and needlessly get sucked in the jet engines during their worldwide jaunts to save cute animals? Why not stay home and protest in front of their favourite veal peddling Italian/French bistro? I suggest twaddle-dee and twaddle-dumb sell their rights to some of those namby-pamby Wings tunes and give restitution to the ex-sealers themselves.

My beef isn’t so much with the objectives of the HSUS; it’s with ill informed idiot idols they use just to get on the front pages. Neither of these camera junkies had a fekin clue what they were talking about.

Have a hoot, club a celebrity spokesperson

Rage within a rage: Hey HSUS, how many Iraqis equal one seal pup?
