After Rick Perry's Stem Cell Treatment, Misplaced Enthusiasm?

Posted by timothy on from the plug-and-play-delicious-genes dept.

oxide7 writes "Presidential candidate Rick Perry underwent a controversial stem-cell treatment this past month, prompting some doctors to fear the high-profile event would send the wrong signal to desperate patients. 'As a highly influential person of power, Perry's actions have the unfortunate potential to push desperate patients into the clinics of quacks,' Dr. George Q. Daley said."

  1. Fix your nervous system FIRST! by Dr.Bob,DC · · Score: 0, Funny


    Rick Perry, like almost all other sick people, needs to do one thing FIRST and FOREMOST. Namely: FIX YOUR NERVOUS SYSTEM!

    I will absolutely guarantee his spine and nervous system is replete with subluxations and blockages which are causing all his problems. No, BigPharma will hear none of this. Go for their expensive ~drugs~ and ~therapies~ that prolong the suffering but have cured NOTHING.

    Modern Chiropractic is your gateway to good health. Drugs keep you enslaved.

    Men are genocidal monsters (even if there is a pregnancy there will never* be a 1:1 sperm to baby ratio) and women are serial killers.

    Remember - Jesus died for our sins, if we don't sin his death will have been for nothing.
