Lightbulb I just got this from the Humane Society & wanted to share

From: Humane Society of the United States <humanesociety@hsus.org>
Subject: We wouldn't treat our pets this way -- please help

Dear T, What do factory farms and Desperate Housewives have to do with each other? During this election season, plenty.
This week, The Humane Society of the United States and the YES! on Prop 2 campaign in California launched this powerful television ad that delivers this critical message:
We wouldn't force our pets to live in filthy, cramped cages for their whole lives, and we shouldn't force farm animals to endure such misery, either.
You don't live in California, but you are someone who cares about the humane treatment of animals. And if Prop 2 passes in California, it will lead to more humane farming practices across the nation.
That's why, today, I hope you'll help us send a powerful message to California voters We're nearly halfway to our goal this week. Will you help us reach it?
As you could guess, these ads don't come cheap -- especially when they air during popular shows like Lost, Desperate Housewives, and CSI. We have just 26 days to reach those Californians whose only exposure to Prop 2 could be our opposition's deceptive TV ads. Prop 2 is a modest measure that simply allows animals in factory farms the ability to move and stretch their limbs.
We don't think it's too much to ask, but the factory farming industry is peddling propaganda and scare tactics about Prop 2's supposed burden on egg factory farmers -- when even industry economists concede that production costs will increase less than a penny per egg.
This isn't about cost. It's about profit motives conflicting with the humane society we're working to create.




Time is running out for us to make our mark. We'll have the greatest impact by broadcasting our ad to millions of people. Will you help make sure voters get the message?
On behalf of 20 million animals, thank you so much for your help today.
Sincerely,

Wayne Pacelle
President & CEO
The Humane Society of the United States

This entity is not "The Humane Society"
The may have a similar name to The Humane Society.

The Humane Society of the United States is in no way, nor should they be allowed to infer asociation with The Humane Society.

Other than that, I could not possibly care less what the HSUS has to say about anything, and if those scumbags at HSUS, or PETA are for something, I am against it.....
