Romney Backer Under Fire For Involvement In Ancient Canine Cookout

http://www.politicker.com/2012/04/12/romney-dog-cookout/

Mitt Romney’s latest canine controversy involves his bundler Fred Malek who was arrested over 50 years ago in conjunction with an incident where a dog was killed and barbecued in an Illinois park. Mr. Malek is hosting a fundraiser for the Romney campaign on Monday in honor of Ann Romney’s birthday. Dogs Against Romney, the stealth PAC backed group dedicated to dogging Mr. Romney about the 1983 incident where he put his Irish Setter on the roof of his car, sent a press release this morning pointing out Mr. Romney’s upcoming fundraiser is hosted by “fellow animal abuser Fred Malek.”

Mr. Malek, who was 22-years-old at the time, was one of five men arrested in August 1959 after police in Peoria, Illinois found them around a grisly scene in a public park where a dog had been skinned, disemboweled and barbecued on a spit. Charges against Mr. Malek were eventually dismissed after one of his companions testified they were solely responsible for killing the animal and attempting to cook it. In 2006, Mr. Malek told Washington Post columnist Colbert King he and the other men arrested at the site of the canine cookout were “drunk out of their minds at the time” and that he merely watched the proceedings and was in no position to stop them. This explanation has not satisfied Dogs Against Romney.

I don't care if they were "drunk out of their minds", it takes a serious ****ing psychopath to do something like that. At 22 I was drunk out of my mind PLENTY and it still didn't make me a psychopath.

These conservative pieces of shit are PSYCHOPATHS.

No, DUchebag, what makes you a psychopath are your associations with a message board that promotes the murder of anyone who doesn't agree with them.

Interesting.  But they don't seem to have a problem with a president associated with known terrorists who bombed the pentagon?

Honestly -

When one gets down to the bottom of this, the only real difference between the dog and any other dinner involving meat is tradition.

In other locations with other traditions, dog is on the menu every day - and there are places where things on our menu such as cow, pig, & shellfish are verboten.

So, yeah - barbecuing a dog has a definite 'ick factor' here. But it isn't any more 'wrong' than eating any other animal- unless there was cruelty involved in putting it to death, but that is another story.

The libs have become fascinated with forwarding the narrative that Romney is a "fellow animal abuser". They just can't get past the kennel on the roof. If only it was a Fiddler.
There were only two options for gender. At last count there are at least 12, according to libs. By that standard, I'm a male lesbian.

It would not surprise me if quite a few so called journalists attained room temperature.
When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

There would be a 90% probability said journalist was a lib as well.

A little off the subject, but: Arrested for what?

If an animal is legally owned, humanely slaughtered, and the meat is not offered for sale, even if it's a pet, what law has been violated?

Nor do they have a problem with a party that supports Partial Birth Abortion, nor a President who voted to fling babies born alive after an abortion into a dark room to let them die.
