I noticed a bipartisan bill finally passed the house yesterday. Here's some info on it: http://www.humanesociety.org/news/news_briefs/2013/11/bipartisan-chimpanzee-retirement-legislation-passes-house-111213.html
Got that-in this year alone they have cut the following for senior HUMANS...Meals on Wheels funding, Liheap (heating assistance), Food stamps, and are currently discussing ways to cut Social Security benefits. For a pack of wackos who don't believe in evolution they sure are doing a lot more for their' distant relatives that their close ones.
