The animal-rights organization People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals on Friday called on North Carolina Gov. Bev Perdue to close the state's factory farms.

Is not Bev Perdue offspring of Frank Perdue of Perdue Farms, the company that pretty much started factory farming? I'm sure there will be an impartial hearing with all pocketbook issues kept under the table so that appearances are maintained. If not, where are the representatives of the organization People for the Ethical Treatment of Humans?

I seem to recall that is was Murphy Farms that were the first big hog farming corporation.

They pretty much got kicked out in N.Carolina and then we find them here in Ky trying to do the same thing about 4 or 5 years back when Listeria was the hue and cry.

Everyone here spoke against it and the then Gov was against it but new Gov came in and so did hog farming.
