Q:
I saw that the President got his first "kill" yesterday. The PETA-philes have their undies in a wad. Should he now be considered a hunter?

I missed this. What was his game?
As far as being a hunter...I'd say not JUST because of this one hunt. He might have hated it and never want to go again, he might have fell in love with it, or somwhere in between. Only time will tell.
Probably just window dressing to sush the hunting community that he is against us.
I think Obama would be a good flyswatter. I'll show him the local dairy where he can just have a field day.
He killed a fly during an interview. The peta folks were offended. They are out there folks and they walk among us.
Seriously? Maybe if I can find some local PETA-philes, they'll take the flies, mosquitos, deer ticks, and carpenter ants off my hands. What happens if their kid gets head lice?
Any enemy of PETA is a friend of mine.
Maybe he should just regulate what PETA can and can't protest. He could also stimulate the organization and maybe they will finally begin to fail.
These PETA idiots are a joke, and Obama does not stand with us on anything. It was a damn housefly!
maybe a small game hunter
I don't think he had a license.
MLH - great point. PETA folks love animals at a distance.
My impression of a PETA member looking at bats in the wild - "Oh wow look we have to save them!"
My impression of a PETA member with a bat in their house - "OH MY GOD SAVE ME KILL IT!!!"
Funny. What the hell is the matter with people
Didn't think the His Excellency had than Murdering streak in him, poor fly, it was just doing what flies do, how barbaric to extinguish its glorious existence just to complete an interview undisturbed. A tragedy, better get the UN involved, or make a new Czar in charge of insect rights......
I thought Obama was gonna be a friend of PETA. I'm pleasantly surprised...but I'm sure he'll apologize and make it all better like only he can.
He should have killed the fly with a gun and then he could have offended two vile organizations at the same time. PETA and the Brady bunch.
That makes me want to get a PETA shirt, People for Eating Tasty Animals. They are fringe idiots.
he killed a fly in mid-air. i thik Ninja is a more of a proper term. but he is still an idiot. as well as peta.
Do these PETA wackos ever take Antibiotics i wonder? Hypocrites.
Reminds me of the "fairy tale" "Three with one blow".
Sorry, long night/day. NO ! ! !
I think PETA is right for a change- this shows his true colors, today he kills a fly, tomorrow, the Constitution!
This was the first time in memory that I was content to stand back and say to PETA, "sic em!", let Obama take some heat, no matter how silly the issue. What a bunch of morons! We have people living in cardboard boxes and starving to death and little kids crying out for homes and families and these people are worried about a housefly!!!! I'm not sure whether it's more amazing or depressing.
ha that's a good one. I'll let him come to our house and get here to.
Man I sure hope they gave the fly a proper burrial. I'm just amazed that anybody could hurt a poor little fly:(
hey flies have feelings too you know. but not after what he did. why should peta people cry? the fly certainly didnt
Impeach!!!
I'm sorry I know this is supposed to be a funny post but let me drag it down a bit. The President commits thousands of human lives a day to live or die somewhere other than US soil and if PETA gives him
$H!T then he should tell them to go F&#@ themselves. Sorry my view as a Vetran of these United States.
PETA people look for things to complain about daily. I am not surprised by this....even though it is a joke.
wow thats just sad a fly? i mean serisly WTF?
osama is pathetic and should never be reffered to as a 'hunter' of any kind... ever
It just seems PETA is looking for yet another thing to complain about. Looks like the old standbys are starting to get old. On our side, good job guys. We haven't done too much to attract any more attention.
Anyone can call them selves a hunter.
True hunters are people who go out day after day no matter the weather conditions and who love not only the animals they are hunting but also the outdoors.
So I say no he is not a hunter yet. He will have to prove himself.
NY
Definatly not a hunter, just another politition.
PETA just wants attention.
Because now the president is going to have to make a huge apology or PETA is going to throw a huge hissy fit. So it thus empowers PETA over the president.
