It’s an abused and burnt Doberman Pinscher. Just ask Michael Vick.

It reminds me of Pelosi and Reid’s love child - could easily run for office later - should be put down forthwith.

"Chupacabra" is a spanish word for "Congress".

Is this story ever going to go away? Coyote’s so infested with mange that they become completely hairless is not uncommon in South TX. They’ve been caught on game camera’s, caught on police dash cam’s, video’d by hunters, shot, run over yet everyone is claimed to be the mythical Chupacabra, and that’s profiling and we real Chupacabra’s take offence!!

Interestingly, this myth only occurs when there is a populace of superstitious illegal aliens nearby. It's kinda like when I go into a supermarket and there is an entire aisle devoted to tortillas: It's an indicator of the overall demographic.

Advanced western society has little time for this nonsense.

Chupacabras? Bah! Here in Wisconsin we have a supposedly “mythical” creature called the Hodag. A vicious beast is he. Don’t get too close or YOU MIGHT GET EATEN UP!!! No, I mean it! I’m not kidding.

I thought this was the same paper but it's not. The other article was from the daily telegraph. I pinged the group on this thread.

The UK’s government educational system must be going down hill faster than ours. We call that “unidentified mystery creature” a “dog”.
