Punxsutawney Phil Responds to PETA & Robotic Groundhog … “From My Cold Dead Hands”

It is hard to take PETA serious when they do the following … replace Punxsutawney Phil with a robot ground hog!!!

PETA once again is trying and succeeding in garnering attention to their cause by this time trying to save Punxsutawney Phil, the seer of seers, the prognosticators of prognosticators from his life of luxury. Punxsutawney Phil, cruelty of animals? This ground hog is treated better than most people in the United States.

Pic Hat Tip: Klaas

In an interview with Punxsutawney Phil he exclusively
told Scared Monkeys with regards to PETA wanting him
replaced by a robot Ground Hog … “From my Cold Dead Ha
nds”

Get this PETA wants Phil replaced with an automated robo-ground hog. Good grief, are they serious? They sent a letter too, read HERE, try to keep from laughing.

The animal rights group PETA says Punxsutawney Phil is being badly treated by the crowds and noise at the annual Groundhog Day festival on Feb. 2 and should be replaced with a robotic groundhog .

Gemma Vaughan,  Animals in Entertainment specialist for the People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, said in a letter to organizers of the annual spectacle in Punxsutawney, PA, that  groundhogs, which are normally shy and spend much of their time in burrows, “become stressed when they are exposed to large, screaming crowds; flashing lights from perhaps hundreds of cameras; and human handling.”

Word of advice to PETA, stick to going after the Michael Vick’s of the world and stay away from our American past times and holidays.

Remains Found Near House in Search for Missing Florida Lotto Winner Abraham Shakespeare

Break in the case of missing Millionaire Lotto Winner Abraham Shakespeare.

Police have found human remains beneath a concrete slab in the search for missing Lotto winner  Abraham Shakespeare. Shakespeare went missing and has not been seen last seen since April 2009.

The body found Thursday; however, has not yet been identified. Authorities had suspected they might find the remains of missing Abraham Shakespeare. What a coincidence, the house and property where the unidentified body was found is owned by the boyfriend of Dorice Moore, who authorities have called a “person of interest.

The body found Thursday has not been identified, but a medical examiner was at the scene. Authorities had suspected they might find the remains of Abraham Shakespeare, who was last seen in April.

The house is owned by the boyfriend of Dorice Moore, who authorities have called a “person of interest.”

Moore has said she doesn’t know where Shakespeare is, but authorities say she transferred more than $1 million from his bank account into hers. She said the money was a gift. No charges have been filed.

The body was found under recently added concrete at a home in Plant City, Florida after police were provided a tip.

Obama & White House Does About Face in Trial of KSM & Other Terrorists in NYC

ABOUT FACE … the continued legacy of Scott Brown’s Senate victory in Massachusetts.

Barack Obama finally realizes that is was a mistake to try Khalid Shaikh Mohammed and other 911 terrorists in NYC, now if only if Obama could admit it was a mistake to try these enemies of the United States in military tribunals rather than federal criminal court.

Obama & AG Holder … Terrorism issue will haunt Dems in midterms

Looks like the brilliant decision by the Obama Administration to try KSM and other terrorists in NYC is being nixed. The Obama White House has asked the Justicen Depatment to to consider other places to try the 9/11 terror suspects after a wave of opposition to holding the trial in lower Manhattan.

The dramatic turnabout came hours after Mayor Bloomberg said he would “prefer that they did it elsewhere” and then spoke to Attorney General Eric Holder.

“It would be an inconvenience at the least, and probably that’s too mild a word for people that live in the neighborhood and businesses in the neighborhood,” Bloomberg told reporters.

“There are places that would be less expensive for the taxpayers and less disruptive for New York City.”

Now we see why Obama said way back when that it was the DOJ’s and Eroc Holder’s decision to pick NYC for the civilian trial of terrorists, so that The One could be provided cover if the heat got too much. However, Mr. President in such a high level decision like this … the buck stops with you.

However, as pointed out by Hot Air, the White House order to the DOJ is only to move the trial to some place else in New York, not to a military tribunal where it belongs. So who will be the lucky NY community to win the KSL trial sweepstake and have terrorists tried in your back yard?

It was just the other day thatRepublican House Minority Leader John Boehner, “There is not going to be a trial in New York, I guarantee it.” However, more shocking was when CA Democrat Senator Dianne Feinstein came out against KSM being tried in NYC as well.  Could this be part of Obama’s waning support in the face of the upcoming midterm elections?

However, does it really matter what city there is a civilian trial for these terrorists? As Weasel Zippers states, no matter where a trial might be located, it will still be a media Three Ring Circus. It’s the issue of the trial, not specifically it’s location, although NYC was in bad taste and a ridiculous choice by the DOJ.

It is obvious to all that the DOJ and Barack Obama made a huge mistake in bringing these terror trial to NYC. Sadly, the only reason why Obama did a reversal of fortune was due to a Senate loss in Massachusetts

Tim Tebow’s Super Bowl Ad will “Celebrate Family, Celebrate Life”… Pro Abortion Groups in Arms over Pro Life Commercial

Pro-abortion groups do not what Heisman trophy winners Tim Tebow’s ad to bee seen or heard. Tim Tebow walks the walk …

There is a controversy at the Super Bowl and it has nothing to do with any of the players from the Indianapolis Colts or New Orleans Saints.

All eyes and Gator Nation will be tuned in on Tim Tebow’s decision to star in a Super Bowl ad slated to air on CBS on Feb. 7 that will focus on “Celebrate Family, Celebrate Life.”  CBS’s decision to go with the commercial  has sparked controversy from Women’s groups that are pro-abortion to stop the ad. The Women’s Media Center and over 30 other liberal and women’s advocacy groups sent a letter to CBS, “… we urge you to immediately cancel this ad and refuse any other advertisement promoting Focus on the Family’s agenda.”

The ad spot was purchased by Focus on the Family, a conservative Christian organization that places emphasis on marriage and parenthood.

The Associated Press reported this week that the ad’s theme will be “Celebrate Family, Celebrate Life,” with Pam Tebow sharing the story of her difficult 1987 pregnancy — instead of getting an abortion she decided to give birth to Tebow, the now-famous quarterback who went on to become a Heisman Trophy winner, leading the Gators to two BCS wins.

If you do not know the Tim Tebow story, Jim Hofts, the Gateway Pundit has a synopsis of it via Big Government.com. (VIDEO)

Tim Tebow was born on August 14, 1987 in the Philippines to Bob and Pam Tebow, who were serving as Christian missionaries at the time. While pregnant Pam suffered a life-threatening infection with a pathogenic amoeba. Because of the drugs used to rouse her from a coma and to treat her dysentery, the fetus experienced a severe placental abruption. Doctors expected a stillbirth and recommended an abortion to protect her life. Pam carried Timothy to term, and both survived- via Wikipedia.
