Did I really hear that Bush met with former frozen embryos? |
|
What about former frozen sperm cells? Are kids murdered when adults masterbate and don't utilize their gametes? Are the leaders in Iran that radical?

4. He was failing to support the head of the infant he was holding |
|
You would think that a politician would have learned to do that. The baby's mother had a smile on her face but you could see the tension and concern in her hand. What an self absorbed idiot!

5. He didn't have the nerve to meet with me, or the MILLIONS of others |
|
like me who can benefit from stem-cell research.
Most of us are sick, and/or in pain, and angry as hell.
And sick, angry people don't look "cute" on camera...
I HATE the bastard. I hate him, and I don't care if that offends some.

7. I don't think he will under any circumstances. What he'll do |
|
is find the 'cult of "life"'/SCR opposition victims of diseases like diabetes, Parkinson's, etc. for a photo op. Mark my words on this.
I can tell you that there are precious few of them, but I'm guessing this has already happened, if it isn't in progress.
I'd like to see the partisanship taken out of this issue. Spector and Hatch have long been advocates for SCR, and they deserve our respect and trust, but I've already seen some DUers questioning their motives.

8. the really stupid thing about this photo-op is the scale |
|
He's standing there with what, about 10-15 kids?
According to two-year old estimates, there are at least 400,000 excess frozen embryos in fertility clinics in the US.
So while he gets his front page picture, his detachment from reality remains brutally obvious to anyone with half of a brain.
sheesh.
