Fetus In a Jar
Phish, “Sample in a Jar
Thanks to the Bush Family, I’ve had “Sample in a Jar” in my head all day, with the word “fetus” replacing “sample”. here’s why:
One of the most shocking passages from former President George W. Bush’s memoir is the one in which he describes his mother having a miscarriage when he was a teenager. According to him, she put the fetus in a jar and showed it to him as they were driving to the hospital.
“I never expected to see the remains of the fetus, which she had saved in a jar to bring to the hospital,” he wrote. As he said in one interview, “She said to her teenage kid, ‘Here’s the fetus.’”
But on Larry King Live last night, Barbara Bush told a decidedly different story.
“No, the truth is I didn’t put it in the jar. … Paula put it in the jar,” she said, referring to the Bushes’ longtime housekeeper, Paula Rendon.
See, that makes it all OK. No, wait, that makes it all the more fucked up!! What is it with right-wingers and their fetus fetish? First Rick Santorum, now the Bushes. What the fucking hell is wrong with these people?
