Animal Rights On The Move
This week's advocacy and lobbying stories in National Journal: (subscription)
"Animal Rights On The Move:" How animal rightists are bringing new meaning to the pledge "with liberty and justice for all." Washington, watch out.
"Who You Calling Astroturf?" The group Free Press wants a robust media with federal support and minimal restrictions from Internet access providers.
"Closing The Lobby To Lawmakers:" A bill to block lawmakers from jumping to lucrative K Street careers is one of several aimed at curbing special interests.
"On The Move:" Chris Hankin is the new senior director of environment and sustainability at the Information Technology Industry Council.
"Inside Washington:" More than 3,000 protesters, organized by National People's Action and the Service Employees International Union, descended on K Street on May 17 to rail against lobbyists for financial services companies. "Lobbyists should be ashamed about lobbying on bills that don't protect Americans," said Trenda Kennedy, who came from Illinois for the protest. One lobbyist who was philosophical about being targeted was Tony Podesta, founder of the Podesta Group. He wasn't at his office during the demonstration, but he says that people "have the right to protest." He waxed poetic in an e-mail: "Then they invaded Tosca. I say, let them eat focaccia!"

Some hate it because they don't feel their team has a fair shot at a championship from the get-go: see any Utah post the past six months. Others hate it because of the way voters screw their team at the end of the year: think Michigan a couple years ago, Auburn a few years before that

This shows there are still people concerned for the life of these little beings and I am thrilled to see that. Even psychologists say that pets work as a therapy for the family. Therefore, they deserve to be taken care of, treated well like smart friends. Some pet owners even feel joy in buying dog apparel for small dogs. They have rights and they have needs too. Once you engage on breeding a little dog, you must offer him all due attention and care.

Besides animal rights we also need to take action on housing regulations on pets. A lot more pets would be adopted if house rentals and condos would allow pets.

When my dog got a leg injury I went to one of those Tucson veterinarians to get him treated. There I heard a lot of stories about owners that beat their pets or mistreat them. I kind of agree with the "Animal Rights Movement" because we as humans are very cruel and we need to get punished for what we are doing to the animals.
