I Wanna Work For Rep. Melissa Hart

Congresswoman Hart (who may be a distant relative) gave a brief speech in support of President Bush's veto of the stem cell research bill. Unfortunately, her staff let her make a complete ass of herself by citing an incident that had absolutely no relevence to the issue at hand as evidence to support her position.

Now there's a job I could get into. No need to worry about doing any actual work, just read lots of right wing blogs and paraphrase what commenters there have posted. After all, bloggers (especially conservative bloggers) are authoritative sources, aren't they? What could be easier?

UPDATE: Well it appears the "grand non sequetor" that Rep. Hart pontificated (linking the Korean research problems with the issue of using stems cells from embryos that will not be used for in vitro fertilization) may have appeared in the mainstream press first in an article by Michael Reagan! I offer my apoligies to the bloggers.
