The 2012 election will be affected by the critical mass growth of the animal rights movement

HOW DO ANIMALS WANT YOU TO VOTE IN 2012?
http://animalvote2012.wordpress.com

I No to Barack Obama:

With the exception of Dennis Kucinich, Ron Paul* and Gary Johnson, every candidate for president in the Democratic and Republican political parties supports continued bombing and burning of animals in FOUR! wars (Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Libya). http://engforum.pravda.ru/index.php?/topic/162381-militaries-wars-on-ani... Under Obama, the USDA has expanded its program to kill billions of birds for cattlemen who don’t want the birds eating the cows’ food. Under Obama, NIH continues its billions of dollars for animal torture (called research). Under Obama, the CDC continues its Frankenstein primate torture. Many more will vote third party in 2012, whether Green, Libertarian, Independent, Socialist, etc. Many Tea Party candidates are Republicans in disguise. http://engforum.pravda.ru/index.php?/topic/168638-us-government-war-on-a... Obama should like Lyndon Johnson resign from a race for a 2nd term.

II Hillary Clinton a henhawk who has promoted all 4 wars of the Bush and Obama regimes.

III Dennis Kucinich: the only vegan antiwar candidate in the race as far as we know.

Republicans

I Mitt Romney:

A Animals bombed in 4 illegal wars: Mitt Romney has supported every illegal war of the Bush and Obama administrations, as he advocated 50,000 more troops to Iraq (excluding of course his own 5 sons).

B Rodeo Mitt Romney decided to keep brutal rodeos in the Salt Lake City Olympics http://www.sharkonline.org/?P=0000000174

C Treatment of dogs Dogs Against Romney http://dogsagainstromney.com describes an incident in which Mitt Romney put the family setter on the roof of his car as he drove TWELVE HOURS to Toronto from Massachusetts. The terrorized dog had a loose bowel movement on the roof.

D Treatment of captive cows The Mormon Church helped Mitt Romney’s private equity (no transparency) Bain Capital illegally to acquire the Clear Channel network (itself illegally large according to original FCC rules). http://www.petitiononline.com/lovepigs There is a constant stream of animal cadaver ads on Clear Channel stations. http://engforum.pravda.ru/index.php?/topic/133076-mitt-romney-promotes-w... Joked one animal protector: “At least he doesn’t drink coffee!’ to which another replied: “the trioxypurines in meat are more harmful than the dioxypurines in caffein”

E Romney’s Bain Capital is invested in animal slaughter, drug companies researching on animals, war profiteering, ecocidal corporations.

II Sarah Palin:

A Sarah Palin inaugurated Alaskan aerial hunting (banned in many countries) by rich trophy seeking hunters who were able to terrorize whole herds of animals buzzing over them while shooting. Hunters were given a license to kill bears, moose by plane, reminiscent of Robert Hanson, the Alaska serial killer who used his private plane to kill women. http://engforum.pravda.ru/index.php?/topic/149354-sarah-palin-bp-pawn-warmonger-animal-abuser/

B Sarah Palin inaugurated a $150 bounty for the foreleg of every murdered wolf. http://www.alaskawolves.org/Blog/C3704FC1-1938-4B63-ABF8-

C Sarah Palin shot a caribou in the face with an arrow as she taught her daughter to cause suffering. She is a poor shot (it took her 6 different firings to murder one elk recently, as shown on her tv show). [img]http://www.swamppolitics.com/news/politics/blog/2008/08/31/Palin and the caribou.jpg[/img] The above photo has earned her the nickname Caribou Barbie as she shot this innocent animal in the face.

D Palin sits on a bearskin rug (complete with the victim’s face) in her office.

E On her tv show, she smashed a large fish to death with a large wooden object.

F Promotes the 4 illegal wars of Obama which burn and bomb innocent people and animals

G Tell Palin wearing fur is cruel http://www.change.org/petitions/tell-sarah-palin-that-wearing-fur-is-cruel *

H She drives through streams in her 4 wheeler, crushing frogs, crayfish

III Ron Paul: good on exiting from wars… not good re animals

Scored only 14% on Humane Society Scorecard on animal protection. (Jan 2007) Voted NO on protecting free-roaming horses and burros. (Jul 2009) Rated only 5% by the League of Conservation Voters, indicating anti-environment votes. (Dec 2003)

IV Tim Pawlenty of Minnesota: advertised as the best friend of hunters, 5% of the US population and continuing to decline in numbers.

V Michele Bachmann received 100% rating from a prohunting anti animal rights group called Sportsmen and Animal Owner’s Alliance

VI Herman Cain We need more information on his animal rights positions. He was a president of a regional Federal Reserve Bank, whose officers are the pawns of banksters.

VII Other candidates: http://2012.republican-candidates.org/ (the site has over 30 categories of issues but that of animal rights is not among them) **
