Freepblogger attempts to "sell" Chimpy's First Veto

[zulchzulu]

Here's what some freeper sheep cluelessly wrote on his blog "for Republicans interested in campaigns, communications and leadership":

President Bush's veto was the right thing to do -- and as this excerpt from the Washington Post's coverage points out -- he did a pretty good job of selling it, too:

Bush addressed the issue in the White House's East Room surrounded by two dozen families -- including one from Alexandria, another from Ellicott City -- who adopted frozen embryos not wanted by other couples and used the embryos to have children."These boys and girls are not spare parts," Bush said. "They remind us of what is lost when embryos are lost in the name of research."

This issue is hard for social conservatives because we often end up using logic to make our point, while the other side uses emotion to talk about how this research could help people with diseases (this is problematic because in politics, emotion trumps logic.) By addressing this issue with real-life examples of how important this veto is, Bush is doing his part to win the PR war behind the culture war.

Apparently it's a given that the "culture war" is anti-science and anti-progress. Not being interested in science or progress OR MONEY when it comes to stem cell research, this half-wit seems to think that pure science is based on emotion...not logic.

How would NOT using logic make it obvious that stem cell research is not only profitable for the medical industry, but a great advantage for humanity.

Perhaps if freep sheep like this mental dwarf actually cracked a book or did some research on the subject of embryonic stem cell, they might actually see great advantages for America in terms of trying to be World leaders in medical research. But that would not be a good thing for them, since not thinking in robotic lockstep is forbidden...it's just too difficult for a sheep to not just follow blindly.

1. Too true.

Bush should have kept those children on stage and included a representative number of children suffering from diseases that may someday be cured because of stem-cell research. He could have pointed to one set of children and said, "These boys and girls are not spare parts, but I'm willing to accept them into the world in place of the untold number of children and adults alike," (pointing to the other children), "whose already blooming lives are to be cut short by afflictions whose cures I'm unwilling to contribute to. Praise Jesus."

2. Bush thinks the soldiers in his wars are spare parts

Yep, a guy who executed 150 people while he was governor and admittedly over 30,000 Iraqis is "pro-life"....

:rofl:

3. Of course it's absurd.

Bizarro World. Why it doesn't make sense to an overwhelming super-majority of the country baffles me. Tell me they're dosing the public water with dumb-juice or something -- I can't bear to think our country is so dumb.

4. Cons use logic, not emotion?

So that's why Bush parades all of those parents and babies across the stage whenever he diatribes against stem-cell research.

5. Maybe they mean L.O.G.I.C.

L.O.G.I.C. = Laughable Obnoxious Grotesque Ignorant Creepiness

6. That sounds more like what they use

:rofl:
