PETA has found the perfect spokesperson for its campaign to spay and neuter pets.
"Octomom" Nadya Suleman received $5,000 and a month's supply of veggie burgers and hotdogs to promote the fix message of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals.
All Suleman, who delivered eight infants conceived through in vitro fertilization, had to do was put a sign reading "Don't let your dog or cat become an octomom" in the front yard of her mortgage-challenged California home.
The cash-strapped unmarried mother of 14 toddlers had another choice to pay her overdue house payments: star in a porn video.
Certainly the very idea that a voluntary breeder could promote involuntary birth control is disgusting.
But so is the underlying message: Perhaps humans who reproduce irresponsibly should be forceibly sterilized.
Just as American and Nazi mental hospitals used to do with mentally retarded patients.
Most pets should be spayed and neutered to prevent feral populations and mass euthanizations.
The jury, however, is still out on Octomom. (23 MAY 2010)
