Obama's pick to head the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, Cass Sunstein, is evidently a nut who wants to give animals the right to sue humans in court. The animals will have a human council that speaks for them. OMFG /FACEPALM

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', 'I')n a 2007 speech at Harvard University, Sunstein argued in favor of entirely "eliminating current practices such as … meat eating." He also proposed: "We ought to ban hunting, I suggest, if there isn't a purpose other than sport and fun. That should be against the law. It's time now."
Sunstein wrote in his 2004 book "Animal Rights: Current Debates and New Directions" that "animals should be permitted to bring suit, with human beings as their representatives … Any animals that are entitled to bring suit would be represented by (human) counsel, who would owe guardian-like obligations and make decisions, subject to those obligations, on their clients' behalf."

He's obviously just trying to mitigate peak oil by turning us all into vegetarians

What a great untapped resource for lawyers to make even more money off.
"My client categorically states that he did not want to go walkies on the evening of the 27th, and the compensation we claim from the defendant should reflect that."
