RUDY GIULIANI

A Rival Circulates Satire on Pet Adoption As Robertson Backs Giuliani

A rival campaign is quick to pour cold water on Pat Robertson's endorsement of Rudy, pointing to this column:

Pat Robertson, host of 700 Club, has recently called for a federal law banning same sex couples from adopting pets. This is a comment on Ellen Degeneres' public outburst pertaining to her incorrect "re-gifting" of her adopted dog, Iggy, to her hairdresser. Must I continue?

"It is God's will for dogs to grow up in a loving home with a Dad and a Mom and I strongly praise Mutts & Moms for removing Iggy from a harmful lesbian environment," Robertson said on his show. He explained the Bible says pets need a mother and a father and Degeneres and girlfriend, Portia De Rossi, cannot provide that dynamic. "Where was the male role model in Iggy's life?" Robertson said.

This is how dead serious Robertson is: if the future president does not pass this law, he is going to initiate ballot measures in all the states to override the President's choice. This is what I look forward to next year - a gay pets adoption right?

(IMPORTANT NOTE: THE ARTICLE IS SATIRE.) There's a joke about Giuliani's tough-on-ferrets stance in there somewhere, but I'm not touching it...
