Brodner's Person of the Day: Michael Vick

Illustration and Text By Steve Brodner

July 19, 2007

Michael Vick, Atlanta Falcons quarterback, indicted yesterday for running illegal dogfights. Jon Stewart’s comments last night cried out for an illustration. "He calls it a sport. I’d like to cover him in liver and let the dogs see if he’s as fast and elusive as they say he is. My guess is no."

Michael Vick is a dumbass, plain and simple.

This lowlife should be treated the same way he treated those poor animals. What is his IQ? He behaves like a barbarian.

Vick is a cretin and a creep. The products or performances of any organization that maintains its relationship with him - even if he does manage to get off on one of the "technicalities" so often found by the lawyers of wealthy people - should be avoided. There are too many choices in the world for consumers to patronize companies so devoid of both common sense and humanity.

Michael Vick is very evil and sadistic to have tortured and killed innocent dogs. Imagine what he and his buddies (and brother) would do if given the chance with humans. His parents should be ashamed of themselves for raising such a demonic and pathetic creature!

Michael Vick is a savage beast and should be locked up; I could barely tolerate reading about his acts of cruelty without breaking into tears; he deserves the same cruel treatment

LETTERS

"As a long-term energy-field professional, I was glad to see Mother Jones taking a more balanced view than that all can be solved with wind, solar, and conservation. How can we double electric usage and eliminate coal? Via an all-out nuclear power program. Nothing else can provide more than 700 gigawatts of capacity in the next 30 years. So, it is up to you and your readers: Demand a nuclear program or complain about global warming, oil profits, and fossil fools. Your choice."
