Vote For Marco Rubio, Or The Kitten Gets It
Attention, Wonkette and the rest of the world, Very Important Kitten news that is alsonewsnews!
Oh, that Marco Rubio. He's so young and hip and edgy and the perfect New American CenturyTM presidential candidate for all the kids these days who are worried about Cuba. And that old Bush-era threat of human-animal hybrids , apparently. But you don't have to give Marco Rubio's clever campaign team your email to watch the video, because we watched it for you and it's real dumb. He just makes some noises with his face about how an egg inside a lady's baby oven is actually a full-grown human being and will never turn into a cat, it's a science fact, MAN. Pro-life!
But, see, this is SO clever because of how people on the internet like cats, right? So if you say "human life" with a picture of a kitten, well, that's definitely going to appeal to the young folks, and make them all, "Rubio sure is the bee's knees! I'm gonna give him my AOL e-mail account address and ALL my shiny nickels!"
It's more evidence that Rubio really has his finger on the pulse of, um, the 1990s. And if you're even slightly confused by the very clear point Rubio is making about how you shouldn't do abortions because look at this adorable kitten, well, you must be an old. Or, you know, one of those typical abortion-loving women who hate cats.

That was not viable, and it was shut down by biology. Hard to get your head around that, is it?
If you are going down the "DNA" alley, you might take some time to understand how things like transcription errors and SNPs happen, along with how immune systems are regulated and what sort of outcomes abberatios most often produce just as a general overview.
Or pretend it's all part of magic. You decide. If you decide to stick with magic and magical thinking, though, you ought to start calling miscarriages "God's abortions" , over 1,000,000 of them in the USA alone every year. Miscarriages make God the primary abortion provider worldwide in the world of magical thinking.
Or not. Maybe it's not magic. Maybe wishes don't happen just by wishing?
Maybe something else is happening? Maybe biology/genomics/genetics don't work the way you think they do? Maybe they don't even care about your moralizing? Maybe a zygote or even an embryo isn't sentient from the time your sperm pierces an ovum? That might explain why nobody ever emerged into the world with memories of before they even had a fully formed human brain?
Crazy?
Genomics and computers are sort of my thing if you are interested in having a real discussion on matters like binding affinities or the effort to understand functional space and protein-coding and such instead of trotting out talking points without really understanding what you are talking about, though.
I'd much rather have a discussion about real stuff than fantasy and rhetorical nonsense, but I find it difficult to have that sort of discussion outside my field. Funny how that works.
"Well, he looks like he's guilty of something, so yeah, I'll vote to convict!"
