While people are more important, much more important, then animals, and they should be given top priority, I can't call someone's effort to help animals out disgusting. Is it disgusting that I just bought a new Infiniti when I could have bought a can for $10k less and donated the difference to relief efforts? I don't think so, nor do I think its disgusting that certain rich people want to spend their money on animals. Its their money and unless what they spend it on is directly immoral or illegal I'm not going to complain if they don't spend it on something you or I would consider a higher priority.

People are starving and homeless, desperate and scared, but you think its okay for some richbutt to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars flying dogs from NO to SF. It may be his money but I still am offended by his insensitivity. In fact, I am so insulted I want the tax cuts reinstated. This extra money of his that's burning a hole in his pocket can be put to better use by the gov't.
