From a hilarious spoof of Pat Robertson’s recent article on the “Culture of Life” on the DailyKos diaries:
The document, titled “Right to Life, a Stepladder Approach”, reveals that this right is not absolute, but nuanced. Many criteria go into determining the amount of Right to Life available to each group. An excerpt notes the exact percentage of Life Culture applicable to some commonly questioned
groups:Fetus – 100%
Person in Persistent Vegetative State – 99%
Generic White Person – 90%
Generic Nonwhite Person – 70%
American without Health Insurance – 49%
American Living Near Profitable Polluting Industry – 45%
Foreign Civilian – 39%
Exonerated Criminal – 22%
Suspected Criminal – 9%
Foreign Soldier – 3%
Huntable Animal – 3%
Convicted Criminal – 2%
Conservative Judge – 1%
Liberal Judge – .07%It is Mr. Robertson’s hope that this will clear up any confusion and allow everyone to fully understand what is meant when any right-wing politician refers to “the Culture of Life.”
