Therefore, he concludes, "the struggles for the emancipation of all instrumentalized living beings should be fought on a common front."

Great!! That means the morons will have NOTHING to eat and will starve. (A very pleasant way to die, or they said regarding Terri Schiavo).

Oh, and we should ban all antibiotics too. After all, there is evidence Staph aureus evolved into George Staphylococcus.

[P.O.E.]

Imagine there’s no liberals,
It’s easy if you try.....

[pepsionice]

They’ve run out of real news, and this ends up being the best that you can manufacture. Another sign that NPR needs to go back to analyzing poetry and Robert Frost.

[crusty old prospector]

Maybe we should start eating liberals. Metaphorically, of course. With a fine chianti and some Fava beans.

[oldbrowser]

Since we can't eat animals or plants, I guess we have to eat dirt. Or does mother earth have rights and a soul too?

[PoloSec]

Yeah and what about roaches, fleas, ticks, flies, mosquitoes, lice, rats, all of which only want to find comfort in homes, should home owners not respect there rights as well.

Do they also not play their part in the so-called evolutionary process.../s

[Ruy Dias de Bivar]

This is not new. 45 years ago several scientific magazines ran articles of how plants appeared to express emotion.

One test was to take several potted plants in a lab, rig them up with some electronic detector and take readings.

Then a man comes in and pulls up one plant and tears it apart. There was an immediate change in the readings.

Later several men went into the lab one at a time, and when the man who destroyed the plant came in, the electronic readings from the surviving plants almost went off the chart.

I always believed that we should have declared the small pox desease an endangered oranism. They got id down to the last strains in capitivity and it does not exist any longer in the natural world.

Under EPA guideline, this deases should be granted endanger specie status and a re-introduction campaign begun into the general population.

[Guardian Sebastian]

If they want plants to evolve on their own maybe they should be writing a letter to Monsanto.

[xzins]

It is especially pernicious to grow plants from sterile seeds, already robbed of their reproductive potential

The leftist war on contraception.

How dare they take away a plant's ability to breed!
