Kentucky's Governor Says No to Pamela Anderson!

Pamela Anderson has lost her fight trying to get rid of the bust of Kentucky Fried Chicken (known as KFC) founder, Colonel Harland Sanders. The sexy actress wanted the statue removed from the state Capitol building.

Anderson wanted to have the bust taken off because she believes it is a symbol of cruelty to chickens. In a statement issued by PETA, the actress groused that Sanders' bust "stands as a monument to cruelty and has no place in the Kentucky State Capitol."

But the Kentucky Governor Ernie Fletcher was not impressed by the sex-bomb's request, so he sent an official letter to Pamela explaining that the bust will stay put. Among other things, in his letter, Fletcher wrote that "Colonel Sanders remains a Kentucky icon. His success story has been an inspiration to many. The industry he began has employed hundreds of thousands of workers over the years. His business and his legacy have been good for Kentucky."

The governor was even a little ironic to Pamela, saying that he appreciated having a pal friend telling her: "I hope you will feel free to contact me any time an issue is important to you."

Anderson has fired back at Fletcher, calling Sanders' company one "that mutilates God's creatures." The actress has teamed up with animal activists at People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals to urge fast food fans to boycott KFC until the company agrees to clean up its slaughterhouse policies.
