Human-Animal Hybrid

Well, it's damn nigh impossible to keep up with all the fun those dirty liberals are having with our President's SOTU. Here, via a hat tip to BoingBoing, is the latest t-shirt not to wear to an official government function. Referring to another immortal utterance from Our Leader in last night's speech:

"Tonight I ask you to pass legislation to prohibit the most egregious abuses of medical research: human cloning in all its forms, creating or implanting embryos for experiments, creating human-animal hybrids, and buying, selling, or patenting human embryos. Human life is a gift from our Creator -- and that gift should never be discarded, devalued or put up for sale." (Click the picture for a link to the site selling the shirt itself.)

All over the web people are of course having a great deal of fun with this meme, and I don't see why we shouldn't join in. If you could be a human-animal hybrid (alas, too late for most of us), what would you be? I'm going to have to say a dolphwoman myself, although grizzlyperson would also be fine. Your choice for your next (discarded, devalued) shot at a life? Better living through cloning?

"It is the logic of our times
No subject for immortal verse
That we who lived by honest dreams
Defend the bad against the worse."
