PETA Says Walter Noel Even Screws Up Obama's Inauguration.

President Obama's inauguration bittersweet for PETA
Examiner.com

Officials from the animal activist group PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) thought they would be attending the inaugural ceremonies for President Obama. In fact the organization thought they would be seated in the VIP section, until they learned that they had been lured in by the nation’s largest “ponzi scheme” started by Bernard Madoff.


The plan began when Bruce Friedrich, PETA’s vice president for policy and government affairs saw an auction on eBay that offered two tickets with full VIP access to the inauguration. The auction was being offered by another non-profit group called December Rain which is a charity for foster children with life-threatening illnesses.


Philip Schein, executive director for December Rain bought seven packages of these tickets from an investment company called Fairfield Greenwich which is located in Connecticut. Fairfield Greenwich lost billions of dollars as one of Madoff’s investors.


All together, Mr. Schein bought “hundreds of thousands of dollars” for tickets to the ceremony and other special events. His plan was to use them as a fundraising tool for December Rain. PETA paid $5,500 for their package.


But all plans fell through last week when Schein contacted the winners of the VIP packages to explain that he never received the tickets from Fairfield Greenwich. He reassured everyone that the charity would reimburse them for the money they paid for the tickets. Then late last week December Rain closed their doors. Schein said it was due to death threats made by some of the auction winners.


It is amazing how far reaching the Madoff scandal is going. I think in the future we will not be referring to the game, “Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon,” but instead it will be called Six Degrees of Bernie Madoff. What a waste of money for PETA; I hope they bought the insurance plan.
