You got it.

Barry, the worst president since Jimmy Carter just signed into law Horse slaughter for Human Consumption

Now available in the USofA>>>


Horse slaughter plants are legal again in the United States. Restrictions on horse meat processing for human consumption have been lifted.

In a bipartisan effort, the House of Representatives and the United States Senate approved the Conference Committee report on spending bill H2112, which among other things, funds the United States Department of Agriculture. On November 18th, as the country was celebrating Thanksgiving, President Obama signed a law, allowing Americans to kill and eat horses. Essentially, one turkey was pardoned in the presence of worldwide media while in the shadows, buried under pages of fiscal regulation, millions of horses were sentenced to death.

Horse slaughter has been prohibited in the United States as funding for inspections of horses in transit and at slaughter houses was non-existent. This worked because the horse meat cannot be sold for human consumption without such inspections. The House version of the bill retained the de-funding language and the Senate version did not. The conference committee charged with reconciling the two opted to not include it. The result is that it is now legal to slaughter horses for humans to eat.

Notwithstanding that 70% of Americans oppose horse slaughter, that President Obama made a campaign promise to permanently ban horse slaughter and exports of horses for human consumption (horses can be sent to Mexico and Canada), that documentation of animal cruelty, slaughterhouse stench, fluid runoff and negative community impact exists, it is taxpayers that will bear the costs!

Wyoming state representative Sue Wallis and her pro-slaughter group estimate that between 120,000 and 200,000 horses will be killed for human consumption per year and that Oregon, Idaho, Wyoming, Montana, Nebraska, North Dakota, Georgia and Missouri, are considering opening slaughter plants.

During these trying times, is the only thing that Democrats and Republicans can agree on is that Americans need to eat horses?

I'm no Obama fan, but if you're going to be a meat eater I don't see what the big deal is. It's no different than eating cows, chickens or pigs.

We adults all know at this point our politicians are just hired hands for the economic elite.

Puppets if you will.

No one represents the average joe, well except the unions and after decades of corperate propaganda in most peoples eyes they are the reasone we are now eating horses.

I would imagine though a horse is far better for your bodey than a Mcrib sandwich that millions of stupid americans voluntarily consome.


Ill take my horse steak medium rare!

we adults also know bills are packed with items and details,

"Slaughter opponents pushed a measure cutting off funding for horse meat inspections through Congress in 2006 after other efforts to pass outright bans on horse slaughter failed in previous years. Congress lifted the ban in a spending bill President Barack Obama signed into law Nov. 18 to keep the government afloat until mid-December."

take from it what you will,, keeping the government afloat seemed a pretty big priority possibly worth the 'potential' that horses might be eaten,,,,which I doubt will come to light before that is amended by lobbying,,,

Seems to me that "cutting spending" would better keep us afloat! The gov't will never stay afloat no matter how much you give them!

Congress, and King Barry, are like a 13 year old with dads credit card, and we the people are "dad"!

Horse-meat tastes excellent!

Again, I don't understand why anyone would have a problem with killing horses for food.

Why stop with horses?
May as well add cat, dog, rat or any other meat.

I'm going to say he likes his horse bloody rare.

all of them are being eaten in one place or other!

well,Americans do have an attachment to Horses owing to their History!
Don't buy the Meat!
If enough People don't buy,it will be not profitable enough!

I hear dogs are pretty tasty too!

I hear politicians taste and act like chicken

Exctly. If you eat animal meat then there is no difference other than taste.

I say as long as we dont start eating each other were doing good lol.

First of all, horse meat tastes good, it's actually a little sweeter than beef.

Second, what makes you think you're not eating cat or dog? Have you ever ordered Chinese take-out? What about tacos with "shredded meat?" Just keep telling yourself that's chicken...

Soylent Green!

the president won't be eating it, the lower class citizens will be... now the "taco surprise" at taco bell won't be as much of a surprise..

Hey, now JITB can start selling horse burgers again!

Hmmm i wonder can they get rid eyes, porter house, NY strips and all my other favorite steaks out of a horse?.Man i wonder how big a horse porter house steak is lol it has to be HUGE mmmmm.
