One of the more amusing quotes of this young election year comes from that Iowa Republican congressional candidate who proposed implanting microchips in illegal aliens.
He talked to our Eric Lach and insisted that he was not making a serious proposal. However, as long as we were on the topic, he offered the assurance, as a physician, that there’s no cancer risk associated with doing it: “I don’t support microchipping people, but if it’s going to become part of the debate — which was not my intent — then microchipping people is not one of those things that is going to cause long-term cancer problems.”
Got it?
