Thu Jun 18, 7:28 am ET WASHINGTON - The group People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals wants the flyswatter in chief to try taking a more humane attitude the next time he's bedeviled by a fly in the White House. PETA is sending President Barack Obama a Katcha Bug Humane Bug Catcher, a device that allows users to trap a house fly and then release it outside. "We support compassion even for the most curious, smallest and least sympathetic animals," PETA spokesman Bruce Friedrich said Wednesday. "We believe that people, where they can be compassionate, should be, for all animals." During an interview for CNBC at the White House on Tuesday, a fly intruded on Obama's conversation with correspondent John Harwood. "Get out of here," the president told the pesky insect. When it didn't, he waited for the fly to settle, put his hand up and then smacked it dead. "Now, where were we?" Obama asked Harwood. Then he added: "That was pretty impressive, wasn't it? I got the sucker." Friedrich said that PETA was pleased with Obama's voting record in the Senate on behalf of animal rights and noted that he has been outspoken against animal abuses. Still, "swatting a fly on TV indicates he's not perfect," Friedrich said, "and we're happy to say that we wish he hadn't." Deputy press secretary Josh Earnest said the White House has no comment on the matter.

PETA is all messed up Keith...
that was no fly. it was an unmanned spy drone.
wonder if PETA is sympathetic to the plight of the denubian slime devil? And, I don't mean to be critical of our lord PIMP, but that fly could have just as easily come from a rotting slab of London broil...
"that was no fly. it was an unmanned spy drone."
LOL!
SHIT!
How do they feel about bedbugs?..'cause if I see one I will kill it.
Forget about PETA, they are just part of the extremists needed to keep things in balance (albeit poorly run). BUT Obama... He is one bad MoFo.
Cody B: I'd think they would want you take care of it...oh wait no pets allowed in their book.
Kick ass tune, kick ass band Todd!
