PETA at it again

[Double Barrel]

Atkins-Blasting 'Physicians' Committee is a Front Group for PETA

WASHINGTON, Feb. 10 /PRNewswire/ -- The late Dr. Robert Atkins is being smeared for his alleged obesity at the time of his death, by a phony doctors organization that has been exposed as a front group for People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) and has been censured by the American Medical Association (AMA). The Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine (PCRM) has taken in over $1 million from PETA and the animal rights movement. PCRM and PETA also share office space, board members, and staff.

The AMA has formally censured PCRM in the past, calling its
recommendations "irresponsible" and "potentially dangerous to the health and welfare of Americans." The AMA has also called PCRM a "fringe organization" that uses "unethical tactics" and is "interested in perverting medical science."

PCRM's attacks on diets including meat, fish and dairy foods, and its constant demands for a vegetarian America are rooted in an animal-rights philosophy.

The facts on the late Dr. Robert Atkins:

(1) Dr. Stuart Trager MD, chairman of the Atkins Physicians Council, told the Wall Street Journal that Atkins' heart disease stemmed from cardiomyopathy, a condition that was thought to result from a viral infection. Atkins' weight was due to bloating and water-retention associated with his condition, and the time he spent in a coma after his head injury.

(2) Trager's own release this morning reads in part: "Due to water retention ... [Atkins] had a weight that varied between 180 and 195.

During his coma, as he deteriorated and his major organs failed, fluid retention and bloating dramatically distorted his body and left him at 258 pounds at the time of his death, a documented weight gain of over 60 pounds."

The Center for Consumer Freedom is a nonprofit coalition supported by restaurants, food companies, and consumers working together to promote personal responsibility and protect consumer choices.

Just heard about this on Rush Limbaugh. This does not come as a shock to me, as the animal superiority lobby will just keep on hammering on Atkins.

This is the truth, and today I will go and try to find the old PETA quotes I used to have.

Why does PETA even try on that whole vegetarian/vegan thing? No way will people stop eating meat just because they protest. I heard they once did a "survey" where they compared the meat-eaters' characteristics o the Nazis!

 

[Duke Togo]

I'd like to eat a PETA member. Who's up for a BBQ?

- Bill Maher, PETA celebrity spokesman
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"We feel that animals have the same rights as ******** children."

Mankind didnt fight its way to the top of the food chain to eat like a rabbit. from now on i decree that all peta members be confined in grassy area by barbed wire fences. there they can eat grass and bicker all day without irritating the rest of us

 

[MrPresident]

"We feel that animals have the same rights as ******** children."

Hasn't that been a show on Jerry Springer?

 

[General Porkins]

'We feel that animals have the same rights as ******** children'

thats disgusting. they really think we should eat ******** children?

 

[MrPresident]

No, of course not, General Porkins. Some could be kept as pets.

Actually thats a commercial. They compared what we do to animals to what the nazis did to the jews. These peta people are raving lunitics.

Why does that sound like something that ELF would say?

 

[Shadylookin]

why animal rights? why don't plants get any rights? at least an animal stands a chance but plants can't run away when the combine comes for them and slaughters them mercilessly. excuse me now while i go have a nice big slab of murder and eat it in front of peta members

 

[Goober]

Just to confirm that PETA is 100%, undiluted, pure B**LS*T!!!

I shall think of them the next time I bite into something delicious and meaty. They just need to stop complaining, and eat some nice juicy steaks.
