The Healer

Amen!  Allelujah!!  Vote for us and we’ll cure all your ills!!!  Are you blind?  You’ll see!  Can’t walk?  You will!  Got AIDS?  You won’t.  Can’t remember who you are?  We’ll fix that.  Plus a chcicken in every pot, a Mercedes SUV in your garage, a wave runner on your trailer, and hot and cold running maids to clean your house.

LIARS!!!!!!!

Fuckface and his Butt-Buddy, the Breck Girl are going around touting that stem cell research will solve all manner of humankind’s problems.

“We will stop juvenile diabetes, Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s and other debilitating disease. When John Kerry is president, people like Christopher Reeve are going get up out of that wheelchair and walk again.”

When asked about fetal versus adult stem cells, Fuckface said:

“scientists have told him “we have the option” of curing Parkinson’s, diabetes and spinal-cord injuries using embryonic stem cells.”

So what do the scientists say?

“What Kerry has done here is told the big lie about embryonic stem cells.”

What I wished President Bush had told this dipshit, sorry waste of human skin, excuse for a man is this:  “Senator Kerry, maybe you can explain for the American people why it was that when government funding was used to map the human genome, estimates were that it would take 10-15 years or more.  As soon as the government stopped doing the research and allowed the private sector to do so, the human genome was mapped in something like 3 years.  Would you care to give the American public a simple economics lesson here as it involves risk and capitalism?  Oh, you can’t, can you?  Well, I expected as much from a pinko like you who lives in mansions, wind surfs, skis drives SUVs you claim not to own and pay only 12.6% in taxes while wanting others to pay more.

I’ll explain it for you.

My fellow Americans, the reason the private sector was able to do what the government could not is simple:

1.  so long as government is funding something, companies have no incentive to do the same thing.  They see this as funding a project for which they will receive no benefit.  Plus, why should companies sink capital into doing something someone else is spending billions on? For example: if your neighbor were building a fence smack dab on your property lines and didn’t ask you to share costs would you build a second one on your side at YOUR expense?

2. when companies DO assist it is with the understanding that they can not benefit unilaterally on such basis

3. when government drops out and companies fund the studies they are incentivised to do so by proprietary rights and patents not to mention the fame and glory (good will) that goes with the accomplishment

So if we truly want to see results in stem cell research, it must be up to the private sector to do so.

Thank you.  Senator, you may go home now and play on your yacht.  This election is over for you.  You are too stupid to grasp simple concepts.

Not that very many people ever read this far down, but this blog was the creation of Allan Kelly and his friend Vilmar. Vilmar moved on to his own blog some time ago, and Allan ran this place alone until his sudden and unexpected death partway through 2006. We all miss him. A lot. Even though he is gone this site will always still be more than a little bit his. We who are left to carry on the BMEWS tradition owe him a great debt of gratitude, and we hope to be able to pay that back by following his last advice to us all:

1. Keep a firm grasp of Right and Wrong
2. Stay involved with government on every level and don't let those bastards get away with a thing
3. Use every legal means to defend yourself in the event of real internal trouble, and, most importantly:
4. Keep talking to each other, whether here or elsewhere

It's been a long strange trip without you Skipper, but thanks for pointing us in the right direction and giving us a swift kick in the behind to get us going. Keep lookin' down on us, will ya? Thanks.
