It sadly appears to me that the Public Option has been temporarily pushed off the governments health care agenda.

Our species is waging war on nonhuman animals. As Gary Yourofsky (one of the most powerful activists in the animal rights movement) has stated, "The hate that humans hold toward animals is matchless. It is impossible to overcome with compromise, or with only entreaty. It is so vicious, aseptic and bitter that a thousand peaceful Gods and Goddesses couldn´t eradicate it." Virtually the same could be said about humanity´s contempt for the Earth.
