   Is there some cosmic reason why Bush invariably looks like an idiot in these pictures? Aside from the obvious explanation that he IS an idiot, of course.

   Put George Bush is a room full of toddlers and guess which one is going to have that “lost in the department store look”…

   Yeah. Was it not the least bit strange, Santorum’s heartfelt plea on the Senate floor yesterday, that everyone stop and remember this (paraphrasing): ‘every one of these stem cells exists because a couple sought to bring life into this world.’

   Yeah, and every single one of these couples, Senator, knew that the very procedure they were undertaking guaranteed a little collection of these doomed-to-be-thrown-away blastocysts. The irony, Senator, the irony!

   One more reason we should continue to kill innocent blastocysts… they might grow up to be 3-year-old blogofacists…

    Bush Vetoes Lifesaving Research Funding Bill in Se…

    “(…) saying that an embryonic stem-cell research bill “crossed a moral boundary.”

    I’d like to know what crosses more of a moral boundary: not funding research that could save thousands of lives and possibly cure horrible diseases, or saving…

    To see the stem cell debate explained with visuals and how the political argument put forth by the President is ultimately an absurd manipulation of the facts…link here:

    This isn’t real, or at least wasn’t at the site of the ‘first veto’ — Bush didn’t allow any cameras in to the room where he was signing the veto order

    You would think that this photo would motivate Bush to kill any and all blastocysts before they have a chance grow up into enemies of the state who hate America like this kid. I mean, isn’t is obvious the kid is an evil, dangerous terrorist who helped the ragheads blow up the World Trade Center and attack the Pentagon? She has forfeited her American citizenship and will be immediately executed for her massive, vicious, evil crimes against the United States and peace, freedom and democracy.

    SkippyFlipjack-

    It’s from an MSNBC broadcast earlier today, when Bush held his press conference and surrounded himself with “Snowflake Babies” to make the announcement of the veto. All I did was add and sharpen the inset for detail.

    Word.

    Skippy: BUt he had a post-signing photo op witha room full of former blastocysts, i believe.

16. Jason, on July 19th, 2006 at 9:39 pm said:

    marymary beat me. and yeah, although I can’t remember if it was post- or pre- veto. (why did I say post”signing”? ack.)

    Somewhere there is a blastocyst with its middle cell raised in defiance.

    I’m a former blastocyst myself… where is my invite to the reception?

    “Such a bitter group of people. Get over it already!!!”

    What do you mean? That precious little tyke was simply giving Mr. Bush due credit. Just another kudo for the “intelligent design” president! Now can someone out there just find his bicycle? He’s got an important appointment to get to with the orthodonist…

    I find it disgusting that some people would deliberately construe the innocent gesture of a child with someone flipping the bird. Have you no decency?

    (re: Bob Krawetz’s comment)

    You find it disgusting, while most find it somewhat funny, esp. considering the irony.

    The difference? Most people have a sense of humor. How is it *disgusting*? Please. Is this somehow corrupting the child’s innocence? Do you think said toddler reads this blog? Or do you actually think that we collectively *believe* that a toddler would really, intentionally, flip the bird to the thief-in-chief? Most people aren’t that stupid, honestly.

    Geez, some people’s kids… (and I’m not refering to the toddler)

    I would G. Bush and all the “right to lifers” explain how a blastocyst and a fetus are important life forms but a youth in the prime of life are fodder to be slaugtered and exploited in war for fun and profit.

    Being deeply religious, he can only assume that the hand of god caused that child to do this, right?

    It’s obvious, to anyone not afflicted with BDS, that she’s flipping off Helen Thomas.

    But i don’t think anyone knows anymore
