PopularScience- A new species of blood fluke was found infecting the lungs of turtles in Malaysia. This parasitic flatworm has been dubbed Baracktrema obamai, in honor of the President of the United States (who is the fifth cousin twice removed of one of the discovering scientists).
B. obamai is described in the August issue of the Journal of Parasitology as having a long, thread-like body. So far, it’s shown up in two freshwater turtles, the black marsh turtle (Siebenrockiella crassicollis) and southeast Asian box turtle (Cuora amboinensis). MORE
parasitic – that’s perfect.
The obvious joke:
– The worm. The man – Both parasites.
Except it’s not a joke.
Well, he is a blood sucking worm, so!
It infects post turtles too
How do you kill it?
What?
Also known as the Blackus Shitslugus.
blood suck, infectious, parasite … that about covers it ….
although we may have a solution to one of Illary’s ‘problems’ … the last sentence in the article states ” making the turtles cough is probably involved. ….
… and remember, in the future, when you meander through the clickbait & see ’27 Interesting Facts About the First Sultan of the United States’ that it is true there is a blood sucking parasite named after the blood sucking parasite
because, right as rain, Snopes & FactCheck will be out there denying it …
People should start addressing him as “Parasite 0bama”. Fucking bastard.
This goes perfect with the big green toad that lives under my deck steps that I named Michelle….
Looks just like him.
I think the scientists will find the Obama parasite has permeated congress and the legal branch of our government.
So now I can call him Jeramiah Wright´s God-Damn-America-hating, parasitic, flatworming, jug-eared, dog-eating, inept, lying, two-bit, belly-aching, finger-pointing, Bush-blaming, Treasury-looting, economy-wrecking, healthcare-destroying, process-circumventing, Benghazi bullshitting, Constitution-stomping, scrawny, little Communist Organizing, phoney-baloney plastic-banana republic, Baracktrema Obamai who prefers turtles?
Watch out Mitch McConnell!
LOL!
THIS is the kind of thing I want to read over breakfast.
Many flatworms propagate through the dung of its host and they are hermaphroditic (they are both male and female in one organism).
This is sooo revealing on sooo many levels… pardon me, I have to lie down.
He has always been a slimy worm! How fitting!
“NEWLY DISCOVERED FLATWORM IS NAMED AFTER OBAMA”
Stop being redundant.
