Obama & the fly & PETA (the worst insects of all)

Submitted by sweetbomb on June 19, 2009 - 1:43am

The housefly is one of the most common and widely dispersed nonbiting insects in the world.Houseflies multiply at a staggering rate. In only approximately two weeks from egg to adult, a female will be ready to lay eggs — almost 500 of them. Appearing close to human populations, the housefly is a major factor in the transmission of several serious diseases. Editor's note - some of them bloody well do bite!!!!!!!!!!

Obama Swats Fly during CNBC Interview http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5rbUH_iVjYw Editor's note: I was very impressed President Obama killed a fly with one swat. Have you ever tried to do this? It's almost impossible without a fly swatter. Yes, I swat flies which would make me a 'mass fly killer'. PETA takes exception to Obama fly-swatting The Associated Press WASHINGTON — "The group People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals wants the flyswatter in chief to try taking a more humane attitude the next time he's bedeviled by a fly in the White House.PETA is sending President Barack Obama a Katcha Bug Humane Bug Catcher, a device that allows users to trap a house fly and then release it outside." Editor's note: The silly buggers, don't they know the flies just come right back into the house. They like being in houses, especially in the fall when they want some place warm to die. Should we put them in little coffins, saw a few words before burying them in the 'fly cemetary'? How many Humane Catchers would a person need and at what expense when a fly swatter can be purchased for a dollar at the Dollar Store? Beyond stupid, reacting to this - PETA needs to get out of it's glass bubble and live in the real world. I don't know who these people are but when they open their mouths - only flies would find them of use. Anywho, if you want a natural way to deal with houseflies - catch a few spiders, chain them to their webs so they can catch flies and eat them. Or raid a pond of frogs, put them in your bathtub, they like flies too. Or, stake a PETA member out on the front lawn to attract the flies outside ...............not inside. Sweetbomb

Purpose

The purpose of this website is to inspire people to take action. We encourage people to take action at home and in their communities. On this social action website, you will see thousands of examples of what people have chosen to do to make the world a better place. We believe that when people see what other people are doing, it helps them take action too. So we ask that you open a profile, and tell us what action you are doing, perhaps you are going to plant a vegetable garden, or you are going to help start a recycling program at school, whatever it is, let us know and tell us how it's going. You can post videos, pictures and statements. If you need inspiration, check and see what people have done by looking on the action map or joining a group that has already started. Together, step by step, action by action, we can create a healthy and just world.
