At Large Take a Good Look, America

If elephants and dogs can be (excruciatingly cute) friends, then CANNOT WE ALL?

Cross-species "partnering" is just what the right-wing wackos are warning against if we allow same-sex couples to marry. This video is conservative propaganda.

Cute story, but that is some terrible reporting.

OK, but Mr Poe has to clean up the poo.

Ask ECB for the bags to put it in, ok?

OMG, We need a constitutional amendment to prevent this sort of abomination! Not only are they the SAME SEX, but they are IN LOVE. This can not be allowed. As Bub said, this is obviously a propaganda video. I'm revolted by it. Think of the children.

Last night I saw a corn dog and some tater tots cohabitating.

Mind you, since it was at the Wildrose, they were probably same-sex ...

I almost didn't click on this because the reporter is kinda bland, but if you could do a screen shot of the elephant and dog doing the "high five" on the ground...

i want a sanctuary :(

i wonder if the dog's spine mishap had anything to do with his multi-ton friend.

"Take a good look, America. Take a good look.......world." God, that guy was horrible. And the pachyderm pun at the beginning? No thank you.

But other than that...fucking fantastic!

Marvelous.

that is the sweetest thing I've seen all day.

@9 Yeah, the "spinal-chord injury" is a bit mysterious. And what's with the ending: "Bella has become very protective of Tara. Protective of what? No one's really quite sure." Um, do you mean "Protective from whom?"

@9 When a friend sent us this a few days ago, that is exactly what my husband said.

In any case, it's adorable.

WTF!?
"Pack their derms..."!? Worst attempt at a pun... ever. Is it even a pun? I makes no sense!
And that mysterious spinal cord injury couldn't have anything to do whit that adorable multi-ton mammal running around, could it?

--"it" not "I", "It makes no sense". Also, "With" not "whit". Don't type when your upset.
