Hooters for Neuters

When the Los Angeles Animal Services Department decided to team up with a Hooters restaurant to put on a bikini contest to raise money to spay and neuter animals, the resulting brouhaha illustrated the level of kookiness prevalent in the city of fallen angels under the moonbat regime of Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa (who incidentally is the former Chairman of the UCLA chapter of the rabidly anti-American and anti-Caucasian organization MEChA).

As La Times puts it:

The department's role in the July 13 event raised the hackles of those who believe that the government's domain doesn't quite extend to judging the relative merits of swimsuit babes.

Or, in the words of indignant City Controller Laura Chick:

What is going on here?

In response to the outrage, a poster displayed on the city's website last week, prominently featuring a well-endowed bikini girl (and the word "adopt" spelled "addopt") was soon replaced by a picture of a sad doggie wearing a "Hooters for Neuters" t-shirt.

What would cause LA's hyper-PC bureaucracy to consort with a restaurant chain built on the concept of large-breasted waitresses in short skirts? Said Paula Petrotta, Executive Director of the city's Commission on the Status of Women:

All of us are looking for money under every stone.

Maybe if they didn't waste taxpayers' money on bureaucrats with titles like Executive Director of the Commission on the Status of Women, they would have more to spare for spaying cats.

The Animal Services Department has known controversy in the past. A previous chief left due to safety concerns after his car was vandalized by activists.

For her part, animal activist Judy Cairns has no problem with the bikini contest, so long as male city officials also show some skin. Leered Cairns:

I want to see Mayor Villaraigosa's legs.

Perhaps it's for the best that the city's participation in the contest has now been canceled. Hopefully that doesn't mean the show can't go on.
