2. If one really thought about it
PETA isn't much different than, say, Billionaires For Bush. They make their factual points in grand, vocal and unabashed mockery. What's the difference? Well, most DUers can relate to, and probably support BFB, as they stand where they stand...against Bush.

I also notice that a great many of the PETA-bashers have been sucked in by the very commercial media that they hate. Every time I hear about PETA being a terrorist organization, or supporting terrorism, I have to bite my tongue before I ask which Fox station they heard that on. It's untrue, but it fits what they want to believe...sound familiar <cough> Iraq <cough>?

But, no one large group will ever see eye-to-eye on everything. In every family, brothers/sisters will fight.
