Between bites at McDonald's today there will be a lot of outrage expressed about Michael Vick getting off easy. I won't understand a word of it.

That's because you're a moron, Larry boy. Here's your sign.

Lawrence O’Donnell isn’t stupid, he’s just a severe drunk.

Lawrence O’Donnell has always been an absolute moron.

The only thing that I’ve always wondered, is why anyone listens to anything that this horse’s ass has to say?

“However, none of the defenses of Vick are as bizarre as those put forward by Lawrence O’Donnell in his Huffington Post blog, What’s Wrong with Killing Dogs?”

I know people who feel the same way about liberals.

Dear Mr. O’Reilly. I was not advocating the killing of liberals or comparing it to catching fish.

“Dog fighting is illegal...fishing isn’t.”

It is if you do not have a license.

Nah... well I don't know about his drinking habits.

My guess is he's appealing to "people of color" that still think OJ Simpson is innocent, without which, Democrats have a really hard time at the polls.

Or trying to give the NFL some cover if they decide not to do the right thing about banning Vick.

First of all, let me say that I find dog fight repulsive and barbaric and the descriptions of what happened to the poor animals who failed their “fighting tests”, how cruelly they were dispatched, beyond words and it’s incomprehensible to me how some people can be so vicious.

I’m no expert on this so-called “sport”, but there was a time however when dog fighting, bull baiting, cock fighting, etc. were acceptable forms of entertainment. Think back to ancient Rome when animals and even humans fought to the death for the entertainment of the crowd. We today we see it differently and of course know these things are wrong in context of how we today view our world and apply our moral standards.

The problem here today is that the animal rights wackies want us to anthropomorphize all animals to such an extent that hunting, fishing, raising animals for food and even keeping animals as pets is viewed as equally barbaric as dog fighting and gladiatorial combat, when in reality they aren’t. Then again the folks at PETA probably don’t give the proverbial fat rat’s a$$ about humans and wouldn’t care if we brought back gladiators as long as no “animals” were involved.

I used to go fishing with my dad. We threw many back and were happy to see them swim safely away. And the fish we kept (for mom to cook up for dinner), we didn’t mutilate or torture for our entertainment. I’ve never had an interest in hunting but I’ve known many hunters over the years (and received gifts of some great deer meat) and I know they strive to kill the animal with one shot as quickly and humanly as possible. I’ve known hunters who were very upset when they wounded a deer and it ran off and could not be found, and not just because they lost their quarry but because they really didn’t want the animal to suffer. The same goes for farmers, they usually care about their animals and when it comes time for slaughter, they dispatch them as quickly and painlessly as possible and they don’t take any glee in seeing them suffer.

Obviously Lawrence O’Donnell is too intellectually challenged to discern the difference.

In Florida, we have a pretty lenient license restriction for saltwater fishing. If you’re fishing from land, pier, or bridge, you don’t need one. My hubby and son go out in our boat, so they need one, but when I looked up restrictions, I was surprised to find that members of the Armed forces who are visitng the state don’t need one...that’s a good deal, IMHO. Also, Senior Citizens get one for free...wouldn’t you know it, LOL.

Recreational Saltwater Fishing License

You DO NOT need a license if you are:

· Any child under 16 years of age.

· Any resident who is a member of the United States Armed Forces and not stationed in this state, when home on leave for 30 days or less, upon submission of orders.

· Any person fishing who has been accepted as a client for developmental disabilities services by the Children and Family Services, provided the department furnishes proof thereof.

· Any resident fishing in saltwater from land or from a structure fixed to the land.

· Any resident 65 years of age or older who has in her or his possession proof of age and residency or a no-cost Florida Resident Senior Citizen license. A no-cost license may be obtained from any tax collector’s office upon proof of age and residency and must be in the possession of the resident during hunting, freshwater fishing, and saltwater fishing activities.

So, apparently Mr. O’Donnell is against killing dogs, fish, cows and any living animal. I wonder what his position is on abortion???

Exactly what he is trying to do...he is not for dog fighting but wants to upset people so he can catch them in what he thinks is a hypocritical net.

We are smarter than that O'Donnell. Speaking of hypocritical nets: wonder what O'Donnell position on abortion or Terri are......hmmmm.

Someone please tell O’Donnell the gospel. If anyone ever needed the gift of discernment it’s her.
