Stewart Punches Hole In Bush's "Pro-Life" Universe

[JABBS]

Click here to read a transcript of last night's Daily Show, including his brilliant link between the Iraq War and embryonic stem cell research, and his call for stem cell research advocates to re-dub their effor the "War on Terrorble Diseases."

<snip>

"If I may offer just a touch of advice for advociates of stem cell research: stop calling it stem cell research. You, my friends, are now on the front lines in the "War on Terrorble Diseases." Yes my friends, if I may be so bold, we as a nation have been attacked by Osama Bin Parkinson's. (Shows ultraviolet scan of brain diseased by Parkinson's.) It actually makes sense, look at a brain scan of a Parkinson's patient, (Shows ultraviolet image of Osama Bin Laden.) it kind of looks like Osama, a little bit. Osama Bin Parkinson's and his evil cohort: Mahmoud Al-zheimer's. We'll fight them in vitro, so we don't have to fight them here. I'm not saying we're going to deploy these stem cells indefinitely, but when paralyzed patients stand up, we will stand down."
