    In the last five years, even TV has gotten in to pet rescue stories.

    What the fucking hell is wrong with this country?

    Patriots died (no New England remarks, please) for among other things, First Amendment and Free Press rights and we're turning this into an idiot's wasteland. The economy is going to hell, Washington is unaccountable because we're wasting our time with fucking pet contests.

    I'm to the point where maybe Al-Queda could do a better job running this emerging shithole of a country. There is no, none, nada, zero responsibility in this kind of bullshit in a newsroom.

    It might be kind of fun to hit the "comments" section and rip on some poor unsuspecting cat.

    If the leaders of this country had any guts, they'd kick every last damn Mexican cat out of this country!

    Then maybe we can get the best of both worlds. Find a way to poll the cats on who they'd vote for. Obama? McCain? Meow Mix?

    It'll be good reading if some of these cats (and dogs for another day) make the contest.

    Good Morning America did a story on this kid. I think CNN did as well.

    I guess at this pace, we can retire the Pulitzer board, unless they've all started a mass subscription to Cat Fancy.
