“How these eggs get outside to hatch and infect new hosts isn’t clear, although making the turtles cough is probably involved.”

Maybe ILL-ary (aka Hacking Hillary) has Baracktrema obamai?

To be announced soon, the “hillaryi criminalus”, the breed of thieving magpie for which early 18th century Italian composer Gioachino Rossini named his popular opera. This unusually homely creature was thought to be extinct until a specimen was discovered flying around the US while making the incredibly annoying, ear-splitting cry Rossini employed in several passages in his work.

I’m a little disappointed. Anything named after him should be waaaay more destructive than just parasitic. He’s more like the AIDS virus.

Consider this sentence:
WORM NAMED AFTER OBAMA
RACIST!

I hope Obama receives many similar honors. Think how easy this will be for medical students if every critter with “obama” in its name is a blood-sucking parasite. Anyone with an IQ above 80 (meaning everyone but democrats) could find that pattern.
