Teabagger Whacktard Christine O’Donnell Warns Against Mice With Human Brains!

[Distracted1]

I know this has more or less been stated but human brain cells =/= human brain. If she would have simply added "cells" at the end of the statement in question, we would not be discussing this. I have little doubt that she completely misunderstood the science being done. However, it has made for a hilarious conversation.

ETA: I now realize that I repeated what NotJesus stated. My bad. =)

Let's not forget about the "cross-breeding" part of the statement.

To me that is even greater fodder for ridicule.

The take home message is that she gets very exercised over her superstitions and makes poor judgement calls based on them.

Not the sort of person you want writing laws that sane people need to follow.

Not the sort of person you want writing laws that sane people need to follow walking around in public unsupervised.

Fixed that for you, lefty.

Video now available. Human-brained mice stuff about four minutes in:

They don't even read laws up there, what makes you think they WRITE THEM?

The job in question isn't a Soros legal minion or SEIU staff job, it's a Senator job.

Speaking of Soros, any proof he funds TPM?

Humm... a medical research company whose headquarters happens to be in Delaware might feel a little threatened her views.

It's all funny until the evil witch lets the flying monkeys out.

They're not stupid mice, exactly, but if you pick any one of them at random you're more likely to find one with an associates degree in communication than a masters degree in engineering.

I take it therefore, the mice in control of Stephen Hawking are a bit quicker on the uptake and on strike for better pay.

I suspect that Stephen Hawking controls the mice that control Stephen Hawking. He can do that, having invented quantum or something.

So that's who speaks for him.

So what part of the question about growing human brain cells in immunodeficient mice is it that you don't understand or question?

The fact that this it not the same thing as cross breeding humans with mice to create mice with human brains. the sheer mechanics of mice-human procreation are mind boggling.

Oh, yeah. I ignored the imprecise use of the phrase "cross breeding" by the non scientist.

Neither "cross breeding", hybrid, or cloning/clones really applies to the case of growing human brain in mice whether 1% or 100%. The proper term is chimera if I recall correctly.

As well as a direct challenge to back up your absurd claim that TPM is funded by George Soros. Should I just assume that you intentionally lied? I'm trying to give you the benefit of the doubt here, but you're ducking the question.

 

[BenBurch]

Hell, after Soros pays for ME he hasn't got any left for TPM.

Soros paid to fix my scooter just because I told him I thought Bush was a poopie head.

What a guy! Amazing he is so rich when he gives it away to anybody who asks, huh?

Now Obama's interview in which he stated that he thought when he was giving speeches, he was directly channeling God.

That's some nonsense for you.

I appreciate your efforts in providing links. Would you have one for this too?

OBAMA:

When I'm talking to a group and I'm saying something truthful, I can feel a power that comes out of those statements that is different than when I'm just being glib or clever.
FALSANI:
What's that power? Is it the holy spirit? God?
OBAMA:
Well, I think it's the power of the recognition of God, or the recognition of a larger truth that is being shared between me and an audience.

Where is he saying he channels god?

Oh, and do you have any proof that Soros funds TPM?

If this is how loosely you allow "channeling God" to be defined, you've just included 90% or more of the US population. Not that I'd disagree that they would be worth mocking to some degree, but no reasonable person would equate this type of "nonsense" with that of what you are trying (unsuccessfully) to defend.
