People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals wants Gov. Jim Doyle to change Wisconsin's official beverage from milk to beer, saying milk is harmful to humans and is meant for calves.

PETA said in a letter to Doyle Tuesday that beer is healthier than cow's milk, which the group argued could cause heart disease, cancer, allergies, diabetes and obesity.

Milk consumption causes dairy cows stress because they are kept in a constant state of impregnation, the letter said.

Cows also suffer because their calves are "ripped" away from them so humans can have the milk meant for the calves, PETA said.

PETA first came up with the beer-for-milk national campaign two years ago, but it was retired after being criticized by Mothers Against Drunk Driving and other groups. The animal rights group renewed the campaign last spring.

Doyle spokeswoman Jessica Erickson said Tuesday she had not seen the letter.

Now wait a second... PETA members must be close to getting on that list of endangered species, otherwise I can't understand how they have lived so long to actually reproduce let alone being able to reproduce.

I swear, the number of retards in this world is growing exponentially every day... and I fear what the future holds in store for us.

Human kind extinction must be getting near, or atleast a significant decrease in the population... I can't understand why else there would be such an abundance of dipshits, morons and dingleberries.

As long as you realize that you are included in this list, all is not lost. I've been aware *of my inclusion in this list* for quite some time. It allows me to tolerate the rest of you.

So I guess the first post you were serious.

Don't know what I did to offend you and make you think I was a dipshit or a moron, guess I insulted one of your FDB boyfriends.

My point was that we are all dipshits and morons.

To assume that calling others this provides you with some sort of moral or mental superiority is beyond the moronic. You are what you call others. See the irony.

Your reply was the proverbial, "I am rubber, you are glue" comeback. I satirically congratulated you on the wit invloved.

Don't take it too personally, I have already admitted to my being a dipshit and a moron.

Furious- it was a kneejerk reaction to the statement that milk is more harmful than alchohol, having lost my mom to the latter I fully understand how fukin retarded that statement is.
