[Vision2020] Pet Food Recall (was RECALL: Chenango . . . )

Sat Apr 28 08:00:57 PDT 2007

"If Gary Crabtree would have been defending Imus and making anti-Black people statements instead of one of your clan, you would be picketing his business every Sunday."

Lets be clear on this. I DO defend Imus' right to say any fool thing he wants to, no matter how offensive it might be. Censorship blows. Carl, should you decide to picket the Lockshop this Sunday, please give me a call. It would seem to me to be down right rude were you to go to the trouble to show me that level of attention and for me not to be there to receive it. Heck, maybe I'll order a couple pizza's and bring a case of beer and we'll make a party of it. Donovan, you're most certainly and cordially invited.

  EXCUSE ME!!!!

  Someone want to clue me in on where I exactly made fun of dogs dying from bad pet food?

  I don't recall sending out anything of such nonsense? Perhaps Carl's Jr. can quote me where I made fun of little puppies. Don't I say enough stupid things not to have this yahoo making up stuff I said? Geesh!

  Interesting the so called LIBERALS show more commentary about imaginary attacks on the character of puppies than they do the Anti-Black, Anti-Disabled, Anti-Baby, and Anti-Christian remarks made by their so called V2020 colleagues. 

  Had Tony called disabled people Psychos, instead of Tommy Boy, you would have eaten him for lunch. If Gary Crabtree would have been defending Imus and making anti-Black people statements instead of one of your clan, you would be picketing his business every Sunday. If Doug Wilson kept track of how many Non-Christians were in a room, as Gier does with Christians, you would write a letter to the editor about it. If Wal-Mart paid its workers what the Co-Op pays you would be pounding down the doors of City Hall. If I made fun of Carl's Jr. disability as he and Debi try to do with mine, you would try to ban me from Friendship Square. Some of you have your heads so far up your unknown that you see the world backwards. Your double standards and Holier Than Thou attitudes make you reek of hypocrisy. 

  Best,

  Donovan

    Well said, Saundra. Perhaps these two fine representatives of the right 
    find this whole thing amusing, but few others do, including, no doubt, most 
    of their fellow conservatives. Any one of us, of any political or 
    theological stripe who have a four-legged member of the family that we love 
    and who loves us back, unconditionally, have reason to be increasingly 
    concerned about this. There is nothing funny about believing to be treating 
    this family member properly, and finding that because of this escalating 
    situation, this trusting, loving creature is being slowly poisoned. Carl
