What would PETA do?


Manifesto

I'm a little slow and get my news from The Daily Show, but seriously, did anyone catch this bit from the State of the Union, without laughing?

"A hopeful society has institutions of science and medicine that do not cut ethical corners, and that recognize the matchless value of every life. 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."


Also, I do like how "manimals" gets lumped in with creating embryos for experiments. Maybe the idea was to throw in something completely insane, so everything else seemed a little bit crazier by proximity.
