>>Hmmm...<<

Agreed.

Contrition is complex, to say the least.

Can’t outlaw a game of rape and carnage like grand theft auto but they can outlaw a dogfighting phone ap?

I guess it’s okay if you say it’s for the chi’run (who haven’t been aborted).

While I can appreciate Vick’s remorse, I wonder what is going on with this. Aren’t there already laws against animal fighting? Why do more laws need to be made?

I am against dog fighting. No doubt about it...Bad thing...No good.

But chicken-fighting....I think I'm O.K. with that.
I have yet to see any conclusive evidence offered to connect chicken-fighting with the downfall of civilization as we know it.

NOW WE KNOW HOW OUT OF TOUCH WASHINGTON HAS BECOME...

We have record unemployment, out of control immigration, gas prices sky rocketing, a bad economy, multiple wars, spending that is out of control and what is congress doing??? Having Michael Vick come talk to them about animal fighting?

It’s illegal... End of story... They don’t need to waste the tax payers money salivating at a football player.

PLEASE!!!!

I’ve come to learn the hard way that dogfighting is a dead-end street. It deprives me of the intense satisfaction I get from torturing and killing dogs with my own hands.

OK, I added the last sentence.

I would prefer to see Michael Vick participate in training military guard dogs. Vick would play "the bad guy." No padding.

The Morning Call reported that a bill, titled H.R. 2492, was recently introduced by U.S. Reps Tom Marino and Betty Sutton.

How many freakin bills do we need? Man, they just don't stop - it's like a bunch of stinking zombies picking over a corps (Obama speak - I know it's corpse.)

I don't think Vick has any remorse. The SOB might have regrets! Regrets for getting caught and spending time in prison.
I agree with the rest of your post. :-)

Why is any private citizen in front of these politicians testifying(?) anyway. As bad as Stephen Colbert.
