Vegan Teacher To File Charges Over Milk

If this guy doesn’t reside on the far left than no one does…

Dave Warwakis started a new lifestyle in January, now he wants to force it upon the students at River Grove Middle School where he is an art teacher. He encourages his students not to eat meat, discusses animal cruelty issues and has passed out copies of a John Robbins book titled “The Food Revolution, - How Your Diet Can Help Save Your Life and the World.”

Vegan MoonbatThat’s not enough for Warwak, he has demanded that the school district remove all milk and other animal products from the lunch menu. He has said he will file child endangerment charges against the school district for promoting milk and animal products as part of a healthy diet.

Lou Bianchi, (McHenry County State’s Attorney) stated:

“We will listen to just about anybody,” - “It sounds pretty unusual. I’d look at the endangerment statute again. But you have to prove intent. They’re just trying to feed kids.”

Warwak was asked to leave the school after he refused to stop the discussions with students.

His efforts have gained praise from animal rights groups.

Warwak described himself as a former fishing guide who sold his boat and tackle.

Milk PosterI have to wonder why he “sold his boat and tackle” for someone else to use? Does that not mean someone else just took his place hurting the poor defenseless fish? One would think he could simply throw away his gear to protect the fish. Meanwhile, he should really stop pushing his ridiculous ideas on the in our . If a teacher is worried more about preventing the from drinking milk then teaching class, I think this qualifies as part of the problem in our public schools.

Ban Water to Protect the Environment

Proving once again that environmental hysteria knows no bounds, hundreds of morons sign a petition to ban dihydrogen monoxide. Oh yes, hundreds of hydrophilic humans signed a petition to ban the common chemical substance that is essential to all known forms of life and covers 71% of the Earth’s surface. You’ve probably figured out we’re talking about water here, not some insanely dangerous chemical that makes your internal organs dissolve. So why would they do such a thing? Simple, because they are uninformed morons who will jump at the chance to climb onto any bandwagon that sounds like a good cause.

Water, aqua, dihydrogen monoxide (DHMO), hydrate, hydric acid, hydrogen hydroxide, hydrohydroxic acid, hydroxic acid, hydroxilic acid, hydroxylic acid, oxidane, or even ?-oxido dihydrogen - Call it what you want, I’m sure we can all agree that without it we would be in serious trouble. It would be more understandable if one of the more obscure terms sere used, such as “Will you sign this petition to ban hydroxylic acid?” or Will you sign to ban oxidane?” Even then I would expect intelligent people who are protesting issues in an attempt to change global policies to at least ask some questions. If you don’t know what it is why not ask?

Ted Nugent Threatens Obama and Clinton

Ted Nugent threatens Barrack Obama and during a performance- with machine guns in hand! This was recorded at one of Nugent’s concerts about a week ago. I have no comment on this other than I think it’s funny.

Another Documentary Exposes More of Moore

Pistol Pete 1 is many things, to some he is a champion of the poor fighting the oppression of the evil Right and the horrible corporate profit mongers. To others he is simply a skillful liar who pretends to fight for the little guy while making millions of dollars selling pseudo-documentaries and to anyone gullible enough to pay for them. (If you think he is something else, that’s what the comments are for.)

Pistol Pete 2I know what I believe Michael Moore is. I’ve seen most of his , Roger & Me, Canadian Bacon, Bowling for Columbine, Fahrenheit 9/11, and . Hell, I’ve even watched his poor excuses for television series: TV Nation and The Awful Truth. If you really want to be pissed off, just watch Moore parading a man in a gun costume around a group of talking about shooting each other and dying.

There are several and documentaries that expose Moore for the hypocrite, liar, and fraud that he is. So far my favorite for no particular reason is Michael Moore Hates America by Michael Wilson. Others include: Celsius 41.11 (2004), Fahrenhype 9/11, Michael & Me, and Forgive Us Our Spins. New in 2007 is Manufacturing Dissent (2007). and Shooting , both of which are made by liberals and expose more of Moore’s practices.

Hannity interviews a man who was a childhood friend of . This man has made a called “Shooting ” which shows everyone who the real is: A Hypocrite and a Liar.

Why Michael Moore Movies are Successful

sure do seem to have a following. For some reason it does not matter how much truth or more importantly how many half truths, misrepresentations, mis-quotes, or outright lies the movies have. I wont even try to get into the lies Moore portrays as factual in the many . This is just a post with a short look into one of the reasons his films might be successful. As an added bonus it also includes a glimpse of what socialized medicine could be like in the future. If your a Sicko fan or if you just can’t get enough of Roger & Me or Fahrenheit 9/11, then you probably should not even bother watching this.

Autoimmune Hemolytic Anemia

Leona is back at home with a diagnosis of Autoimmune Hemolytic Anemia and a handful of medication. During her stay at the hospital she received injections of Polyflex and Dexamethasone along with subcutaneous fluids to treat the dehydration.

The tests show she does not have Feline leukemia virus or Feline immunodeficiency virus which is very good news. The bad news is that her red blood cell count is extremely low. Her condition is rare but treatable.

She is doing very well now that she is home and has actually started to eat a little for the first time in three days. The only real problem is that I have to manually give her medication. If you have ever tried to force cat to take a pill or liquid antibiotics you know it is a very unpleasant task. My first run at it resulted in a few minor scratches and a very unhappy cat. I suppose it will get easier with subsequent attempts at least I hope it will anyway.

Leona will have to go back to the doctor a few times over the next couple of months for blood tests to make sure her red blood cell count is doing better. I will have to make some serious adjustments to account for the lack of budget for something like this but Leona is very important to us.

Leona’s Not Feeling Well

Over the past few days Leona has been a bit under the weather. She went to the doctor today and they decided they needed to keep her in the hospital at least overnight. For those that don’t know, Leona is the only cat I really like. Just over one year ago some depraved, vicious subhuman teenagers tried to drown her in a swimming pool. I answered a call in the area and heard cries for help, by the time I found her she had stopped breathing and I had to resuscitate her. She was about 3 weeks old then and has been very happy living with me and my wife since then.

LeonaPerhaps it has something to do with saving her life, or the particular circumstances that I did so. Who knows, but the result is that despite my generally inharmonious dealings with felines I have developed a very strong relationship with Leona.

I thought she was just depressed a couple of days ago when she started laying around but after the first days he stopped eating and became unresponsive. I got her into a veterinary clinic today where I was informed she has a fever, is anemic and dehydrated. What is not clear just yet is why, so she had to stay at the animal hospital to have tests.

Mail Order KittyThe doctor says it could be nearly anything from a minor infection to Feline leukemia virus (FeLV), or Feline immunodeficiency virus. I really hope it is something minor, in the meantime I can’t help but be worried about her. I know she must be scared being away, especially under these circumstances.
