Polyp-in-Chief (with Poll)

Mon Jul 23, 2007 at 12:08:07 PM PDT

Not to focus too closely on the President's colon, but I had to comment on the Whitehouse statements about the President's polyps. Apparently there were five polyps all of which were benign -- something the five polyps do not share in common with the President.

It occurs to me that following the logic of the pro-life movement:

   * The polyps are living cells.
   * The polyps are made from human tissue.
   * Therefore, the polyps are a human life.
   * The tissue itself is Presidential.
   * Killing the polyps is not just murder but assassination.

Given their responsibility to protect the President, I think its incumbent upon the Secret Service to protect the polyps. As for the duties of running the nation, I propose that the President and his 5 polyps can alternate days. That gives us five days of benign rule for every day of maligned rule.
