Good morning! Or IS IT? That all depends on how well are you protecting your family from animal-human hybrids. “Eh, a medium—but responsible!—amount,” you tell yourself. Uh huh, sure. Have you introduced an actual piece of legislation that will BANISH these non-existent monsters from what could be but definitely won’t be reality? Sam Brownback and 20 other 100% pure human (that we know of??) Senators have done just that.

Reports the Hill:    

Sen. Mary Landrieu (D-La.), the only Democratic co-sponsor, has taken a similarly hardline stance against what she called “blending” of species.

“Here in the United States, we simply cannot open the door to the unethical blending of humans and animals, which the British government seems intent on doing,” Landrieu said the last time she introduced similar legislation. “It creates an unnatural species and is a clear line we cannot cross.”

Oh, no no, Mary Landrieu, that is just how the British are.

The Brits have long had an unnatural breeding program in place with the Royal Family–no surprise they’d have a head-start in this field.

[re=360875]PerhapsSo[/re]: That was the “Montauk Monster” aka some stupid prank by the makers of some stupid movie trying to get some publicity. The Interwebs were all crazy with trying to figure out if it was “real” or not…because it’s full of morans.

By the way, it is nowhere near as cool as Minneapolis’s Lake Creature, which we all know is fake, but talks to us on Twitter and has a website like normal monsters/unnatural creatures do. http://lakecreature.com/

If the result is horrifying and suffering human/towel hybrids as created by the government in their quest to create a ‘smart towel,’ before chancing upon the success of Towelie, then I’m against it on humanitarian grounds.

Don’t forget to bring a towel!

I’m so high right now, I have no idea what’s going on.

Prommie July 13, 2009 at 12:25 pm

This is no laughing matter, my friends, for when the time comes that I need a backup/replacement liver, heart, and lungs, how are these organs to be grown, except in a hybrid human-pig or some such? We can’t just clone me and harvest the poor clone’s organs, but a nice little piggie, with some of my genes added, so his organs would be acceptable to my antibodies? Whats so wrong with that, I ask you?

karen July 13, 2009 at 12:27 pm

When McCain needs all of his internal organs replaced (since he’s planning on living till the end of the Iraq war), he certainly won’t be enjoying any fine organs harvested from some filthy pig. Nooo, instead he gets the AIDs organs from the crack addict who just died down the street. The choice is OBVIOUS.

S.Luggo July 13, 2009 at 12:28 pm

Landrieu’s legislation is a back door attack on Bobby Jindal. But he is what he is and you can’t change that.

Is it just me or does everyone else think that perhaps anyone in the U.S. Senate is probably not qualified to decide on half-human or monster issues?

We have had animal-human breeding for years — Newt Gingrich is half weasel, Bill Clinton is half hound dog and the greatest triumph of all was the human-hippo mating that resulted in Rush Limbaugh.

Well there is nothing in the bible that says that interspecies breeding is impossible, so we must prevent the devil and his minions, the British, from unleashing hell. Clever people those Brits, you MUST keep your eyes on them all the time.

Big Liver July 13, 2009 at 12:42 pm

Prommie’s right, we gotta make chimeras of human and animal tissues/organs. And why not?

“History does not look kindly on those who violate the dignity of the human person.” WTF? Has he ever had a colonoscopy or a prostate exam?

Personally, I want to see animal/plant hybrids. This would solve the whole eating animals thing that PETA keeps going on about. I can’t wait to see the ‘Avocodicken’, and the ‘Steakato’. Mark my words.

I saw one of those “Montauk Monsters” back in the seventies when I was visiting Andy Warhol out on his estate. Course I was tripping for the whole weekend, think it was those damned Purple Domes again, so my memory is a little hazy, but I remember strolling on the Beach with Andy and Ultra Viva and coming across one of those things on the beach in the early morning fog. “What the fuck is THAT?” I screamed, but Andy, as was his wont, said nothing, and Ultra Viva informed me it was a little avant garde breeding experiment that Mick Jagger and the CIA were running. She also told me to keep my piehole shut if I valued my life.

You realise we Brits are only making human-animal hybrids to eat, obviously? They go great in Spotted Dick, or Toad in the Hole, but of course the Britishman’s favourite dish is Human-Animal Hybrid Tikka Massalla. It tastes like chicken, with a hint of pork.

[re=360965]bitchincamaro[/re]: This may come as a surprise, but contrary to the conventional wisdom Andy never wore a “hairpiece”. Oh sure, he experimented with a lot of different dyes and all, but it was all his own hair. Andy was very sensitive about that.

1) In the weeks before the elections, it is revealed that many prominent Republicans are actually DEMONS in human form.

NYT: ADMINISTRAION FROM HELL — LITERALLY (pictures of Bush & Cheney with horns)

2) The president’s spokesman tries to deflect cricitism.

Horned Tony Snow: The REAL question you should be asking is, how long have Democrats KNOWN we were demons? Any why didn’t they speak up SOONER?

3) Talk Radio Goes on the Offensive.
Horned Limbaugh: Why are the media so focused on the fact that Republicans are DEMONS? Because they’re determined to DEMONIZE REPUBLICANS, that’s why!

4) Pundits debate the issue.
Colmes: I’m just not sure that it’s in our best interests to have a government led by DEMONS!

Horned Hannity: WHY do you liberals hate DIVERSITY? Why are you so BIGOTED– against DEMON-AMERICANS?

5) Republican approval ratings begin to drop.

Man: They’ve alienated our allies and embroiled us in a futile war — and NOW it turns out they’re DEMONS from the blackest depths of HELL!

Woman: On the other hand, DEMOCRATS support GAY MARRIAGE.

Man: Better mark us as “undecided”.

6) But JOE LIEBERMAN pledges to bridge the divide!

SOMEONE has to end the partisanship and name-calling!
I promise to reach across the aisle — and work WITH Satan’s minions to GET THINGS DONE!

Horned Bush: If only there were MORE like you.
