*Humane Society of the United States Fundraising Scandal! * When you hear the words “Humane Society,” what’s the first thing that comes to mind? Is it a pet shelter where families can adopt unwanted dogs and cats? Or is it a super-rich animal rights lobbying group that runs absolutely no pet shelters<http://www.townhallmail.com/fffjqggr_gkejdplt.html>, and gives *less than 4 percent* of its $100 million budget to those who do? We thought so. Meet the Humane Society of the United States<http://www.townhallmail.com/ewwtenne_gkejdplt.html>. This slick and moneyed PETA clone has pulled the wool over the eyes of countless Americans—including Rush Limbaugh<http://www.townhallmail.com/ujjgdmmf_gkejdplt.html>, who recently recorded two public service announcements for the group. Last week WSB-TV in Atlanta uncovered what Rush has somehow been unable to see <http://www.townhallmail.com/pxxozkko_gkejdplt.html>: that HSUS is “an organization actively misleading donors to get money.” <http://www.townhallmail.com/dhhylajc_gkejdplt.html>[image: HSUS_Expose.jpg]<http://www.townhallmail.com/yqqzfmpd_gkejdplt.html><http://www.townhallmail.com/ayyekrjy_gkejdplt.html>If you enjoy a good steak, if you hunt or fish, if you wear leather shoes, if you take your kids to the circus, if you (or a family member) owe your life to medical research that involved lab animals—the Humane Society of the United States doesn’t share your values. The group has the same agenda as PETA <http://www.townhallmail.com/iccedfgf_gkejdplt.html> and the rest of the animal rights industry. And it *is* an industry. The Humane Society of the United States has an astonishing $200 million in the bank. If you are a Humane Society of the United States donor, it’s time to reconsider that decision. Thousands of struggling pet shelters—*legitimate *Humane Societies—could use your help. There’s a good chance at least one of them is in your own community. And unlike the Humane Society of the United States, they’re not working overtime to ban hunting & fishing, cancel the circus, turn your boots into contraband, or stop cancer research in its tracks. The next time a solicitation e-mail comes from the Humane Society of the United States, watch this video from WSB-TV in Atlanta<http://www.townhallmail.com/xzzikeaa_gkejdplt.html> .
