[kpete]

Bush spoke at the White House, where to illustrate his point he’d gathered 18 families that included children born from implanted embryos.

“These boys and girls are not spare parts,” Bush said.

BAGHDAD — Retaliatory massacres by gunmen and bombers linked to rival Muslim sects have left more than 130 people dead across Iraq over the last two days, the latest casualties of what some politicians now are calling an undeclared civil war.

kpete: Words fail me

1. 2500 is just a number...n/t

[Midlodemocrat]

2. Why use white babies as spare parts when there are plenty

of willing donors in the Middle East? :sarcasm: I detest him so much I could puke. Right to life, indeed. What a flaming, disgusting hypocrite.

[deadparrot]

4. Me too, Midlo.

The whole thing just makes me want to scream or cry or hit something. There's a huge knot in my stomach right now. :cry:

[Midlodemocrat]

9. I don't know how much more of this I can take before I

completely come unglued. Watching all those people die in the ME and that asshole prevents stem cells? What is wrong with him? Hypocritical piece of shit.

I remember watching a show on Oprah many years ago about a couple who were all for stem cell research and genetic testing and because they were carriers of a genetic illness and wanted to have the option to abort. But, they were pro-life. For everyone but them apparently. Hypocritical doesn't begin to cover it.

[progdonkey]

3. nor are they "boys and girls"

anymore than one of my skincells is male and one of my sister's is female.

[skiddlybop]

5. No you cretin.

THEY WERE NOT SPARE PARTS, BUT NOW THEY ARE LANDFILL, THANKS TO YOU.

And...BTW, just so you know...

One of them was going to cure the returning Jesus Christ of juvenile diabetes...but that stem cell is going to a landfill.

Now the earth will never be saved. Goodbye rapture.

6. "A half truth is a whole lie." The Talmud.

He gets his either later in this life or in the next life. No way around the fruits of one's karma.

[gratuitous]

7. How many death warrants did Bush sign?

Remind me, because I sort of forget what a bloodthirsty monster he is when he assigns a sex to a blastocyst.

[liberalmuse]

8. "These spare parts are NOT boys and girls."

As usual, the exact opposite of what Bush says is true.

[Tom Joad]

10. Seems like the children of Lebanon can be sacrificed too...

Bush Co won't say anything to Israel for a week or so, by that time the death toll well be closer to a thousand, almost all civilian.

[ladjf]

11. That's an example of one of his "cute" slogans, designed to

make his followers applaud in admiration for his astuteness, sort of like "bring it on" or "my job is to protect mericuns" or "it's your money. you should decide what to do with it".

[Avalux]

12. Ah the rhetoric - isn't it lovely?

It whips the fundies into a frenzy - those poor boys and girls wiil be killed so their livers and kidneys can be harvested! Disgusting.
