Michael Vick

the whole michael vick saga just goes to prove, among other things, that the money and worship which americans pour into professional sports is a sign of their seriously tweaked priorities.

vick should just declare that all the dogs he used were terrorists, and therefore it's perfectly reasonable for him and friends to do anything he wants to the dogs and their relatives. I mean that argument has worked fine for Bush and co.

people all are all freaked out that vick and friends "brutally" killed dogs, and forced them to fight and so forth. But is anybody freaked out that ... children in this country are dying from lack of basic health care, while children in iraq are dying from u.s. airstrikes?
