Palin vs. PETA
We think it's safe to say that Sarah Palin didn't get a Christmas card from the folks at PETA. (You know, the People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals.)
Or vice versa.
During the holiday season, PETA posted an online game that involves pelting the (moose-hunting) Alaska governor with snowballs, urging internet users to "help make the holidays safe for animals by fighting back against notorious animal abusers."
(In the game, we should mention, Palin is bikini-clad and wearing a fur coat.)
Fast forward to Tuesday morning...PETA President Ingrid Newkirk said she received a call from someone who claimed to be from Palin's office demanding that PETA take the game off their website, Bruce Friedrich, PETA's VP of Policy and Communications recounted to Shenan.
When Newkirk asked for the gentleman's name, he yelled into the phone, “Just take the game down or you’ll read my name on the lawsuit,” Friedrich said.
A couple of hours later, after PETA posted a blog item on the call, Newkirk received an email from Bill McAllister, Palin's communications director. Read the jump for the full (fiery!) email exchange.

So the game ain't all bad.
This story just makes me adore Sarah even more than I already did.
they’re meat-eater haters. I hope none of them actually eat meat
That almost makes me want to check that game out. Except I don’t want any records of a visit to the PETArds’ web site.
some of them eat meat. many of them wear leather tennis shoes, have leather wallets, and leather belts.
So she has no problem shooting herself up with a drug made from 'exploited' horses while at the same time advocating that YOU and I have no access to such drugs.
Some animals are indeed more equal than others.

PETA hates Palin. Good. That tells me she’s doing something right.
kind of like all those scientist who worry about us lighting up our Christmas trees, meanwhile they are off flying to the latest global warming boondoogle.
An enemy of PETA is a friend of mine! Now to put on a fur coat and dig into a big juicy steak!
Nuke the Whales!!!!
The irony is that PETA should at least credit SP for eating meat and fish that she or her family kills or catches themselves, and not buying from industrial food farms.
If you haven’t seen this, you need to. It is absolutely incredible:

Penn and teller Bullsh!! episode on PETA.

Merry Christmas!
You are so right. Every time one of these nut-job groups takes a shot at Mrs. Palin, I learn something new about her, or see something new in her that just makes me like her even more.
Palin in 12 !!!
PS - I'm a member of the other PETA - People Eating Tasty Animals
I have lived on this earth for 67 years, and frankly, I have grown weary of the ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, the ACLU, PETA, NAACP, both the Democratic and the Republican parties, and entities in general that continue to manufacture ‘news’ through these sewer conduits. The very term ‘journalist’ is enough to turn the stomach and loosen the bowel.
my dog has a higher IQ then Peta
I am proud to be a life long member of PETA.(People Eating Tasty Animals)
Defamation of character by portraying her in a fur coat. Never seen a picture of her wearing fur. And having an animal skin on your wall is not the same.
