WaPo: Edwards a "snake-oil salesman" |
|
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A34167-2004Oct14.htmlI know Krauthammer's about as Rethug as they come, but has anyone seen mention of Edwards' remarks elsewhere? It was a dumb thing to say, and if it spreads further than the usual Rethug outlets, it could do damage.

Why did you post it here?
What damage can hyperbolic, outdated name-calling smears do?
Huh?

4. This isn't a Rethug outlet |
|
...and if this thing's hitting the press, we need to be ready to respond. Forewarned is forearmed.
Or perhaps we should just sit back and wait until the attacks have done their damage... the tried and tested approach. :eyes:

Grow up.

6. Anyone with an ounce of reading comprehension |
|
should be able to understand that what he said is exactly what the medical scientific community has been saying. If Kerry is elected we will be able to start on the work that is needed to be done so spinal cord injuries can be reversed. I don't see the problem. And someday even that devil Krauthammer may be able to get out of his wheelchair if he lives long enough.

7. Charles Krapsucker can go fuck right off. Does he use a crystal |
|
ball to see into the future to be able to say that stem cell research leads to nothing, or does he just jackoff into his hand and read what's left of his sperm count?

10. The Repukes will twist ANYTHING that is said. |
|
It is impossible to say anything without running the risk that the Repukes will try to spin it into something negative.
This late into the game it is called "desperation."
They are trying to hang their hats on any- and everything.

13. There's nothing wrong with Edwards' remarks whatsoever. |
|
If Krauthammer had been a competent physician, don't you think he would have pursued that respectable profession rather than being a mediawhore?
As far as I know CK was never an admired researcher, so he has no expertise to decide, contrary to what many admired researchers believe, that Edwards is wrong. Encouraging as many stem cell research lines as possible will have much greater likelihood of finding cures than limiting them due to ideologically based ignorance.
He should be forced to listen to at least an hour of speeches by Michael J. Fox and others who are fighting hard for this research.
