PETA Slams Obama For Swatting Fly
President Barack Obama’s fly-swatting act isn’t sitting well with People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals.
PETA says it wants Obama to try taking a more humane attitude the next time he’s bedeviled by a fly in the White House.
PETA is sending Obama a Katcha Bug Humane Bug Catcher, a device that allows users to trap an insect and then release it outside. PETA says it supports “compassion even for the most curious, smallest and least sympathetic animals.”
During an interview for CNBC at the White House on Tuesday, a fly intruded on Obama’s conversation with correspondent John Harwood. When he couldn’t shoo it away, Obama did away with the fly by swatting it with his hand.
Friedrich said that PETA was pleased with Obama’s voting record in the Senate on behalf of animal rights.
In an interview with CNBC, President Barack Obama swats a pesky fly and the then slams the pesky Fox News network for their negative coverage of him.

« Previous 1 2 3 4PETA is just trying to bring attention that even the smallest creature has the right to exist. I don’t always agree with them, but they’re just speaking up for species that are unable to speak for themselves & using the situation to grandstand. They have & continue to do good work however & animal mistreatment shouldn’t be tolerated in society.
This is what you need to do, you got to find away to raise about 100 flies and take them to the main peta office and let them go and see if they catch them all and do not kill them and you will see what kind of hypocrits they are
Ask PETA how many heads of lettuce did they kill to eat there salad?? HUH !!
Will someoneI mean anyone please tell Peta to go f themselves. Tell those tree hugging bastards that if they are so concerned then they shouldn’t drive, eat, sleep, or walk because they all consist of killing some form of a bug. They need to worry about what the hell they are doing and make sure that they are not harming any creatures and stop trying to push their belief system onto others.
