i'm so pissed he's going to veto stem cell research. what a buffoon. Maybe his mommy will have to have MS or something before he realizes the importance of this research.

phoenix:

What I don't get is this: The rationale for opposing stem cell research that the right always gives is that it is 'immoral' to kill embryos so they can be studied scientifically.

But if they really believe that, then why don't they pass a bill mandating that the laboratories and storage facilities that are holding the embryos can't throw them in the incinerator or the garbage can when people don't want them anymore? Make them pay to keep them in their carefully controlled environment for perpetuity. After all, isn't it just as 'immoral' to throw the embryo in the trash and let it die of starvation and exposure?

Oh, but that would interfere with the profitability of the labs. And conservatives are all "pro-life," except when it comes to passing a regulation on private industry that might reduce their profits, then 'pro-life' gets chucked into the round file (with the embryos).

ei, Right on. I was thinking the same thing.

What happens to the stem cells that are not placed in the womb?

Isn't that "murder" too?

I love this country. Any nut can be in charge.

This nut will pass on the opportunity.
