Talking about the subsidies that make us sick.

Listeria Hysteria
Dr. G has a new blogpost about the recent Melon Madness.  It's funny, funny strange not funny hysterical, that Melons get SO much press when 85% of Listeria is caused by Meat.  Most of the time when Fruits & Veggies are contaminated, it is from Factory Farm runoff or byproducts of Factory Farming.  If we didn't cram animals in small places and call them "livestock", giving them zero space to move, feeding them tons of drugs, and not cleaning up their massive amounts of feces in a proper way-these outbreaks wouldn't really exist.  They just don't need to exist.  They exist because of greed.  Money is more important than human lives, animal lives, or our environment.  Just one of the joys of our "free market" in which the Meat & Dairy industry is somehow heavily subsidised (how is that a free market??).  This listeria outbreak may actually be from human sludge this time.  Looks like we aren't really handling that properly either.  It seems like we think if we throw something out, that it somehow won't come back to us.  We throw all our old electronic stuff out and ship them to China.  Then our kids get poisoned with Lead paint and other toxic substances, often made with the very stuff we shipped there in the first place!  Ironic or Karma?  But the Melon Market doesn't really have all of the subsidies to "protect themselves" against the Media War.  Check out Dr. G's post to find out about what is really causing foodborne illnesses in the States.

And just another Saturday Morning.  Pj & the Crew (I am behind the camera) on an EARLY Saturday Morning Adventure.  Pj, of Gateway Pet Guardians, and the Gateway Girls are looking for Dodie's Puppies.  Pj feeds these dogs every single day, and then tracks them if they are pregnant.  She isn't sure if Dodie does have pups or not, but suspects she might.  (Sometimes the dog is pregnant but the puppies die).  What does looking entail?? It entails going through abandoned homes.  Homes that are falling to the ground.  The floor is covered with the walls and part of the ceiling.  Debris is everywhere.  The floors are rotted through in parts.  Then we go through the wooded area, looking, listening for signs.  We talk about "3rd World Countries" in the States.  As if the States really has it all worked out.  I assure you that if you have been to East St. Louis, you will realize that we have not taken care of our own.  We have forgotten the people, the city, the environment there.  There has been massive corruption there, but instead of actually dealing with it, it seems the State of Illinois has "ignored" it and moved on.  I have been there a lot, but it still blows my mind just a little bit how places like this can exist within our "First World Wonder".  



Raw Vegan Pad Thai from VegaDeli.  Look for upcoming Vegan Taste of St. Louis Post.

Something that made me very sad and shocked.  I am jaded, but I did think it at least wasn't socially acceptable to be anti-gay in public anymore.  Does keeping "sex" out of it mean that Soldiers can't hang photos of their women on the walls or visit prostitutes? I am no longer voting democrat (unless the threat from the other side is just too much) but since I actually like blacks, Jews, Palestinians, Muslims AND Gays, then that puts me at pretty strong odds with the "other side".

Something that cracked me up.  I need to belly laugh fairly regularly.  I like the part about the drive thru partial birth abortions.

What do you vegans & animal lovers do about politics??  What do you do when there is No One to vote for?  I feel a little defeated these days by the majority of the blowhards in office.  I will not quit voting, but not sure what to do at this point. As you can see from the above link about Jay Nixon, I am in no hurry to vote for him.  Missouri has gifted the States with some real "gems" like members of the Blunt Family, John Ashcroft, and Todd Akin.  But if the "other" side doesn't offer any refuge, I refuse to vote for them.  Jay Nixon is continuing to work with opponents of the Puppy Mill Law to further weaken an amendment for which had already passed by the Missouri Voters.

I have given up hope for either political party. The only democrat I would vote for now is Dennis Kucinich.  I have already ranted about the Prop B mess in Missouri.  But once again,  Missouri received depressing news of Governor Jay Nixon weakening (bending over without the KY to the Republicans and a few pathetic democrats) of Prop. B that requires Puppy Mills to give adequate care to their dogs. I expect they don't give a flying f*ck about pigs or cows (except when they are lining their veins with their fat and paying for the drugs to try to prevent cow & pig "plaque"), but PUPPIES?? If you can't even stand up for puppies, when your voters have clearly spoken (we actually voted, but I guess those really don't count here in the States anymore, right?), then at this time, you are a lost cause. I know that in your heart you probably think the republicans are completely insane, but WHY the f*ck do I care what is in your heart if you don't take action on it? Do you compromise on the Holocaust (oops, yeah guess we did-you know-we have to protect our financial interests). Do you compromise on child abusers? Do you compromise on genocide?

The "Sticking Points"?? From Best Friends Animal Sanctuary.....

Governor Nixon’s compromise would repeal many of the Prop B requirements, including the following:
Dogs have a rest period between breeding cycles
Dogs not be exposed to extreme heat and cold
Dogs receive veterinary care for all injuries and illnesses
Cages not be stacked or have wire floors
Cages be of a certain size to allow dogs a minimum amount of headroom
Dogs have access to outdoor areas to exercise
Puppy mills be restricted in size
All violations of the bill requirements be prosecuted

I guess it's totally fine to force a woman into pregnancy, continuously, without a break, until she dies.  I mean, if it's about the profit and we make more money the more kids we sell, right?  And of course, we shouldn't take care that the dogs don't freeze to death or die of a heat stroke.  It would be completely ridiculous to require veterinary care too, don't you think?  And to have a minimum amount of headroom would be insane, those Crazy Commie Puppy Lovers!!  Let the puppies outside?  Why the f*ck would we do that?  We know that we make a lot more money with chickens when they stay inside all of the time, with the lights on and with their beaks cut off.  We can't  do anything to change the dog's "looks" though, since that is also where the bucks come in......Those Crazy Socialist Commies.  Providing food & water & care for puppies.  What next?  Will they let Women Vote?

Just remember......there was a time that Women couldn't vote, where Black people were "property" just like animals are "property" now, to be bought and sold.  We, most of us (well, we are in Missouri) think that slavery and women being 2nd class citizens now is shocking & crazy. So I can only believe in the future, that people will actually begin to see that animals aren't "property".  Other Animals inherently cooperate.  They are usually  more developed souls than most people and they actually practice what most religions preach.  

So Dear Jay Nixon, you have lost a vote for the Democratic Party across the board. I will vote Green and the chips fall as they may. If you don't have the balls to stand up for the voters and are continually getting blown by people with financial interests and you are too freaked out to stand up for ethics because you might lose votes, then just bend over and take it. Leave the KY at home because that's what Missouri Voters are feeling today. So just grab your knee pads and keep blowin', cause you already lost all respect from people who actually give a shit about other forms of life.

And for those surprised that Puppies would fall under "Agriculture".............Y'all should SEE how real agriculture is treated, and it ain't just in Missouri. Yeah, that morning bacon.  That hamburger you got at the drive-thru.  That "healthy" chicken that has over a 50% chance of having some really awesome Staph.  And really, what is the difference between a pig & a dog? Why is it not socially acceptable to barbecue dogs? Why would it be strange to see someone take a leg of a Pit Bull, marinade it, grill it on the Hibachi, and eat it off the bone?? Or how about prepackaged low fat slices of German Shepards? Neatly sliced, deli style. So neatly that it wasn't evident that it was actually ever once alive.

The "Glimpse" of hope?? Dennis Kucinich (Smallest Man, Biggest Balls), who realizes Women are Goddesses and actually learns from them! Yep.....he learned about veganism from a woman and guess what, it healed his Crohn's Disease! He learned about being pro-choice from a girl! And what? Feed people and help people get access to water to help create peace? You mean this is better than saying that Christianity rules and Muslims are terrorists? How completely Insane! I mean, it wasn't like Timothy McVeigh was TRULY Christian like Osama Bin Laden was Truly Muslim.

So for now, he is only Democrat I will vote for. If that means that rape and incest victims can't get abortions, that women wearing mini skirts were actually asking to be assaulted, that women are so stupid they need to wait days before getting an abortion so they can see videos of fetuses from the kind people that hate any other race or religion and are okay with killing people, as long as they aren't white (Maybe you should wait 3 f**cking days before eating a hamburger or how about getting a gun license?), that we should fire all of our teachers, policemen, and firemen before considering any tax increases for the richest 1% of the world, that we should use all of our environmental resources because God put them here for use to use up, that we should abolish all unions because God knows that middle class people already have too much money and they don't work enough, so be it. I mean, we have to compromise, right? Besides coat hangers and rubbing alcohol are fairly cheap and women get by in other countries, right?

So if my Green Vote means all of this (by splitting the democratic vote), At least I expect ALL of it. It's not nearly as disturbing as being disappointed that you,  just bent over, because it's not like you actually have the means to make money if you weren't in political office, right? I mean,  Mr. Governor, you really need this job for the money, just so you can eat and feed your family. We know it's hard to make ethical decisions when you may not have enough money to cover rent each month.
