Obama nominee: Animals can sue people
A consumer-freedom group says President Obama's nominee for "regulatory czar" is an "animal-rights zealot" who may make life difficult for hunters and meat-eaters.
Senator John Cornyn (R-Texas) has placed a hold on the nomination of legal scholar Cass Sunstein to head the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs at the Office of Budget and Management. Cornyn is worried that the Harvard professor may push an aggressive animal-rights agenda in the White House. Sunstein has argued in favor of outlawing sport hunting and meat-eating, and written that animals should be allowed to file lawsuits "with human beings as their representatives."
David Martosko with the Center for Consumer Freedom shares Cornyn's concern.
"If Cass Sunstein is ultimately confirmed to be the regulatory czar, having an animal-rights zealot in that position for the first time could be problematic for Americans who love to hunt, who like seeing circuses, [who like] having animals, who like taking their kids to the zoo, who like feeding their children meat and milk at lunch time," he warns.
"This is a guy who I would think will use every means at his disposal to push the radical animal-rights agenda."
According to Martosko, Sunstein may one day be appointed to the U.S. Supreme Court -- so Senators Cornyn and Saxby Chambliss (R-Georgia) have both placed holds on Sunstein's nomination because they want the constitutional lawyer on the record now so that if he does something different they will be able to use it against him in a future confirmation hearing.

I dearly love animals but this is stupid!
Can you imagine, a lawyer bringing his client ( a French Poodle, perhaps?) into the court room with a leash? Silly.
The judge might say the dog was in contempt of court if he barked, growled or wouldn't play fetch? Smile

Yes, there seems to be NO shortage of one RADICAL kook after another for Dumbama to appoint to his cabinet! Last I heard, we now have more "czars" than Russia!
So we have Holdren who admits to being a commie and is all for eugenics, Cho who thinks we should all paint our roofs white and now this clown. I love animals, but geeze this is insane!Join our efforts to Secure America's Borders and End Illegal Immigration by Joining ALIPAC's E-Mail Alerts network (CLICK HERE)

Hey, does anybody know what the retirement package or for that matter pay is for a czar? While we are laughing, we are paying for them

Border Collies!
SicNTiredInSoCal, thank you for posting this about the Regulatory Czar.
Glenn Beck brought this up and said Cass Sunstein is a devout follower of Singer.One of Singers belefs is Some animals
, according to Singer, are worth more than some humans.' A smart border collie, he says, is worth more, inherently, than a retarded child. … Cass Sunstein has embraced the whole enchilada. … He believes that animals should have some of the same rights as humans, in fact, greater rights than some people – including the right to follow lawsuits."
I think a retarded child and a border collie are worth more than all the czars in the world. I could get on a roll here with how one border collie is worth Pelosi,Schumer ,Kennedy and Reid . Then again, what can you expect from a country that has czars!
