Papa Miffed at PETA

I saw this news story online and thought, "What the heck?"
PETA miffed at President Obama

Animal rights activists have lashed out at President Barack Obama - after he was photographed swatting away a rogue fly during a TV interview.

The president has been getting lots of kudos for a lightning-fast, Mr.Miyagi-worthy swipe he employed to slay a pesky house fly that wasbuzzing him in mid-interview during a taping with CNBC that airedWednesday.

But now People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, calling it an"execution," wants the commander-in-chief to show a little morecompassion to even "the least sympathetic animals."

The group has sent Obama a device that traps a fly so it can then be released outside.

My response to PETA would be: "If you don't want people to swat a pesky fly, then keep the dirty things out of our face."
