4. Thanks Underpants!!
I'm glad that our Fearless Leader is encouraging Congress to tackle the most pressing dangers to our society right now...
Or maybe he was (again) talking about himself like he always does (pretending to be talking about Osama/Al Qaeda, but he is really describing himself)... :)

2. He's worried about the competition
Word is that someone is creating a "half-man/half-pig" to compete with Limbaugh, and a "half-man/half-snake" to compete with Cheney.

Can't have that.

But seriously, it sounded so absurd, but his little plan will also prevent sick people from using their own cells to generate organs for transplanting.

3. This...
...Tonight I ask you to pass legislation to prohibit the most egregious abuses of medical research -- human cloning in all its forms -- creating or implanting embryos for experiments, creating human-animal hybrids and buying, selling, or patenting human embryos.

5. He's pandering to the fanatical, uneducated base,
and scaring them to death, so they see him as savior against the hords of stolen embryos and human-animal hybrids that are going to come and get them!!!Boooooooooooooo!

Forget the fact that embryo research is mainly aimed at solving unimportant and rare problems like paralysis and cancer...

It's hard to believe the Press doesn't ridicule this drivel!!!

:crazy:
