Just one use of the fruit fly in scientific research:

"A Salmonella infection is not a positive experience. However, by infecting the common laboratory fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster with a Salmonella strain known for causing humans intestinal grief, researchers in the School of Life Sciences at Arizona State University have shed light on some key cell regulatory processes – with broad implications for understanding embryonic development, immune function and congenital diseases in humans."
Making Flies Sick Reveals New Role For Growth Factors In Immunity

You'd think that Palin would at least keep quiet on things that she obviously knows nothing about. But her ego doesn't even raise the possibility that there might be things she doesn't understand and may need to learn more about. Frightening!

P is for Putz
A is for A***ole
L is for Lunatic
I is for Idiot
N is for Numbskull.

I never thought there would be a poltician that I could actually depise more than W or Cheney, thanks to McCain, I'm wrong.

She also said that Ohioans know how to raise people right, as evidenced by Joe the Plumber down the road.

What about Bob the Unemployed or Nancy the Uninsured?

I know a fruit fly that would consider that offensive.
