September 18, 2008 -- As many in the veg world know, professed animal welfare champion, Matthew Scully, is writing speeches for "let's-shoot-wolves-from-airplanes-and-kill-polar-bears-to-help-oil-companies" VP candidate, Sarah Palin. I have received quite a few emails and read a number of posts on our discussion boards expressing curiosity, amusement, anger or disgust about this fact.
People are writing to us about this because VegSource created and hosts Matthew Scully’s website
http://www.matthewscully.com which spotlights his book,
Dominion: The Power of Man, the Suffering of Animals, and the Call to Mercy. Our “hosted by VegSource” logo is on his his front page.
A typical email reads: with Palin representing some of the most anti-animal and anti-environment positions on the planet, how could VegSource support someone like Matthew Scully, who is working so hard to get her elected?
...We personally support the Obama/Biden ticket.
Just to be clear, our endorsement is not based on animal rights, and we frankly don't agree with everything Obama/Biden stand for. Nor do we disagree with everything McCain says. But we are really disturbed by the lying. We don't think we can survive four more years of that.
