HSUS Pushes for Animal Rightist in the White House
HSUS Pushes for Animal Rightist in the White House
12/23/09
The Humane Society of the United States (HSUS), the largest anti-hunting group in the country, is urging its followers sign a petition urging President Obama to appoint an “Animal Protection Liaison” in the White House. This liaison would undoubtedly be promoting HSUS’s radical animal rights agenda.
The appeal comes directly from HSUS President and CEO, Wayne Pacelle. In it, he states,
“We have developed a change agenda for animals, which outlines 100 immediate steps the Obama Administration can take to help animals -- including millions of pets, farm animals, laboratory animals, and wildlife. With your help, we can ensure the Administration is addressing these critical animal protection issues in an ongoing and sustained way.”
Never before has there been a specific member of the White House staff devoted exclusively to the animal rights issues. Given the current political climate, the amount of influence this appointee might have on public policy raises serious concerns.
“As if having ‘Regulatory Czar’ Cass Sunstein in the Obama Administration isn’t enough, now sportsmen may be confronted with a dedicated animal rightist down the hall from the President, whispering in his ear,” said Bud Pidgeon, U.S. Sportsmen’s Alliance president and CEO. “The USSA is watching this closely and looking to see how to best combat this ridiculous and potentially dangerous idea.”

It is Ironic for the most destructive organization to be FOR animal rights while they kill the most animals. The HSUS kills more lost pets than a disease. I saw them lie to the assembly by using a picture of a dead fawn in a trap that would never hold a live deer of any size. During a hearing to ban trapping in the State Capitol they, " Dared Anyone" to put their finger in this trap. when I vollenteered they backed down. it was an old weak #2 double coil spring trap. They had the audacity to make the false claim that it would cut my finger off. The hearing members didnot fall for the lies. But the DNR made new rules for the use of conibear traps after a member of an "animal rights" pac commanded their dog to go into one that was set in a coon trail. a 220 trailset.(They were tresspassing at the time). There will be NO truth czar in this administration..I caught a lot of Foxes and Coyotes that were asleep in the trap untill I walked up to them. I am sure that a lot of you also saw the same thing on your traplines.
