but we can then raise the age at which you can start getting social security...and more paying in for a longer time, just think what that'll do to the budget.
well, it wouldn't do anything. the more the gov makes, the more it spends.

This is indeed terrific news. Bush was crazy, the political way he interfered in this. In my eyes, W. Bush is personally and morally responsible for delaying research into cures for diabetes, spinal cord injuries, etc., and breakthroughs in burn treatment, orthopaedics, organ transplantation, etc.

I read that FoxNews link, and of course that article goes off yapping on things that are not exactly true.

Here's a more objective link (run it all together if it breaks):

What isn't "exactly true" is the factual information the article avoids giving the readers (until a half-azzed way in the last sentence).

If FoxNews said the whole truth right up front, in the first paragraphs as they should, and stated it clearly, they couldn't then fill the body of the article with silly, imagination-based, politician fear-quotes.

But the issue remains controversial since days-old embryos must be destroyed to obtain the cells.

These are embryos that have been already destroyed and are headed for the trash bin.

These embryos will hit the trash bin whether stem cell research exists or not.

No embryos are destroyed simply for stem-cell research.


This is a science emphasis article. Or should be.

FoxNews turns it into political fodder. Just like George W. did with the topic.

Are you serious? A Science emphasis article? You think the stem cell issue is about science?

They quote politicians on both sides because this is a POLITICAL story! Why is this hard to understand? Unbelievable....

I rest my case.

This is a big story because of the political implications not because of some scientific breakthrough. If he had refused to turn over the previous administrations policy it would also have been a political story.
