PETA, who came under fire earlier today for using Michelle Obama in their latest anti-fur campaign without her permission, has released a statement in an attempt to sweet talk Michelle and the White House legal team out of suing them for their mistake. The statement read:

We haven’t asked the White House to fund or promote the campaign, as they can’t do such things, but the fact is that Michelle Obama has issued a statement indicating that she doesn’t wear fur, and the world should know that in PETA’s eyes, that makes her pretty fabulous.

No word yet on whether or not any legal action will be taken against the organization.
