Still More Video, by Popular Demand

Bioethicist Jon Stewart takes you back to that moment, that magic moment, when Senator Brownback led the anti-stem cell lobby to new heights. It has to be difficult for Mr. Stewart when the Senators are actually more amusing than he. But he gets by. Don't email me for more video or this blog will become the theater of the absurd.

Hah - that really did write itself for them. ...then again, often the footage on the stem cell debate does.
You really ought to collect AMBI/AJOB swag and send it Jon's way. A thank you for doing more to publicize the utter stupidity some people try to get away with when it comes to stem cells (or PVS, legislation for one, euthanasia... the list goes on; I suspect you could do a Bioethics 101 class and open every lecture with a relevent clip from The Daily Show).
