This is powerful, the Obama campaign needs to run with this endorsement. Particulary to the female vote, who tend to have cooler attitudes when it comes to the rights of animals and their habitats.
Why would one assume that a person who is a republican doesn't like animals? They may not support PETA because PETA is a loony organization, but it doesn't mean they don't love and appreciate pets and wildlife.
Well, now that I have decided to vote for a Republican candiate, does it mean that I need to bring my dogs and cats to a shelter?? You know, I could bring them to PADS, the shelter to which my husband and I make a huge charitable donation.
Seriously, I so agree, GloryB, these are outrageous statements.
If they are real dogs, how do you think they'd vote?
It's sarcasm. Both my goldens would go for McCain, definitely. They love charitable givers and are both very good judges of characters. It might be a little harder to pin down the cats, they tend to be a bit more independent.

Wow, I bet your pets would find that really amusing.

Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) has been a solid supporter of animal protection at both the state and federal levels. As an Illinois state senator, he backed at least a dozen animal protection laws, including those to strengthen the penalties for animal cruelty, to help animal shelters, to promote spaying and neutering, and to ban the slaughter of horses for human consumption. In the U.S. Senate, he has consistently co-sponsored multiple bills to combat animal fighting and horse slaughter, and has supported efforts to increase funding for adequate enforcement of the Animal Welfare Act, Humane Methods of Slaughter Act, and federal laws to combat animal fighting and puppy mills.
By God, you're right! This is absolutely outrageous! Where does he get the nerve!

Absolutely . Environmental and Animal Rights are smaller issues in this election, but they are issues nonetheless and this endorsement should get some media time.

My pets get nuance and sarcasm.
As for Obama, that's great, now if only, as the Senator from Illinois he could help with legislation that would get our state out of the #49 position in the funding for the school children of Illinois.
