Discussion for article #238809

One of two things about to happen:

The rest of us will laugh uproariously.

Heck, maybe both.

Stupid way to frame Obama getting to see Lucy, but maybe Dr. Alemseged started that with his quote. Does Trump have to be in every story?

Obama didn’t say “Trump” unless I’m reading it wrong.

““It shows that every single person here, 7 billion people, including Donald Trump, came down through the chain,” Alemseged said, according to pool reports."

Hey, nobody said natural selection is perfect.

““We’re reminded that Ethiopians, Americans, all people in the world are part of the same human family,” Obama said during a speech to about 300 people at dinner in the National Palace.”

Amen, brother.

Good one Mr. President, though I think Lucy had more going for her than The Donald ever had. She was a survivor of the fittest. Hah. He won’t be.

No, he didn’t. The head of the California Academy of Sciences brought Trump into the convo.

Everyone is trolling the Trumpster.

Actually, you’re right. Went back and read it. Still…any chance to troll tRump is OK with me.

Well, natural selection weeds out maladaptions. But while what Trump has on his head serves no adaptive purpose, it hasn’t stopped him from reproducing, so its genes are passed on.

There’s no mention of Lucy begetting people 6000 years ago in Genesis. So heads will not explode.

He didn’t have to. He’s trolling the birthers AND the “the Earth is only 6000 years old” Bible-thumpers. There’s no way that’s by accident.

Well, of course, this is impossible because the earth is only 6,000 years old, so any million-year-old skeleton has to have been put there by the debble!

“We’re reminded that Ethiopians, Americans, all people in the world are part of the same human family,” is all Obama is quoted as saying. Nothing about 6000 years. I think you’re reading too much into it if you think Obama is trolling. Not that I think it’s a big deal. I just think Obama viewing Lucy doesn’t have to be belittled by making it a political event.
