...that we should never allow a fundamental christian back into presidential office? Stem cell research is a promising new science that George bush is against because his bible thumping base feels it goes against the teachings of there 2000 years old book. Another step backwards because of religion.
It's not the first time religion has been wrong. Read about Galileo below.

I'm less concerned about this veto than I am about his holy wars he's carrying out in the middle east.
If American voters were smart (and they're not), they would insist on candidates who keep their religion private.

I thought that was a very bad move on his part. I think everyone knows someone who could very much benefit from stem cell research, and he has taken that opportunity away because of some nitpicky moral issue and religious dogma. It's not like stem cell researchers are actively killing babies, people. If it involved six-month-old developing fetuses, then yeah, you'd better believe I'd have more of a problem with it. As it is, they're dealing with bundles of, what, a hundred cells? And they're using those cells to SAVE LIVES. With stem cell research, abortion wouldn't be as guilt-ridden as it is. The women who aborted could feel more of a sense of closure knowing that they might have saved many lives instead of merely discarding one.
Maybe Dubya should THINK before making such foolish decisions.

Oh yes indeed. Can you imagine the utter ignorance that someone would have to be afflicted with to veto something like this?
On the plus side, Canada is making HUGE strides in the realm of stem cell research and making billions of dollars in the bargain!
While the US economy keeps sliding faster and faster towards a depression that will make the 1930's look like a church picknick in comparison.
You voted for him america (well, to be fair it was Diebold that did the voting, americans has little to no say in the matter) so this is your fault!

you are absolutely wrong about that.
ADULT stem cell research, which is promising and HAS been used to treat conditions WITH LOTS os success is perfectly fine, legal and even ok with the Chirstian population
Embryonic stem cell research has NOT show to be effective in treating even one condition after all the research that has been done.
The embryonic cells are not as viable as the adult cells and do not work as hoped.
So...to answer you question.....We should allow MORE traditional fundamental Christian people in office because they have a higher moral standard and aren't as willing to kill babies...( and future babies )...... on research that has proven to be totall useless and ineffective

I was SO excited to hear that Bush vetoed the bill. Embryonic stem cell research is a waste of money at the best and murder at worst.

No we should elect our next president that approves of mass slaughter of children, homomariage, prevention of human life- "via stem cell research" and also to approve off no death penalty, short prison terms for murderers, and easing up on laws- no speed limit, stealing is permitted, " burgaler's rights", o yeah and I forgot..... Porn for children...
what's wrong with that, it's an era of human advancement into the Dark Ages of IMMORALITY..... Hey it's a free country do whatever you want.... No that is called anarchy.... there has to be a moral line that cannot be crossed...
Our America will fall just like Rome did.... if something like this happens...
Adulteress for.... I mean, Hillary for President '08
Immorality will spred like wildfire and one day Libralism will mean- all ways are good, do whatever you want, kill rob, there is no penalty- no that would be raccist towards our fellon comunity....
But then since Christians stand for morals, the rest of the world would hate us and call us terrorist, no wait, they all ready do....
guess it's all coming true...
God bless...

First we purely be responsive to of opportunities that could effect from stem cellular analyze. we've not any way of definitely understanding what we can be waiting to do with them, so any wild hypothesis like "curing tens of millions and tens of millions of ailments" is incomprehensible (in terms of what's going to definitely happen). For the checklist, there exchange into extra suitable than a million invoice (a minimum of three i be responsive to of at this element) and Bush purely vetoed one so a techniques, banning farming of three day previous fetus' (i ought to be incorrect). despite if, i do no longer agree along with his determination.

It's a perfect example of the damage that can be done by one man and his religious beliefs. The majority of this country is in favor of using ALREADY produced embryo stem cells that were going to be destroyed anyway, for testing. IMPEACH the lieing war monger!

It sure the hell is. Unfortuantely, there are more of those beleivers than us non-beleivers, which is what led to Dubya's reelection....so chances are we are going to have another in office after this clown leaves...
Oh no! Dont mention Galileo!!! Julia doesnt want to read about how science was ahead of the Bible. She'd rather beleive that the Bible was ahead of science...

funny I've thought the very same thing if they throw hundreds of thousands in the garbage every year why not use them for research at least they might do some good other than being just wasted just more proof not that we need it that George bush is a idiot

I agree wholeheartedly. I had an abortioun, and I would have loved it if I could have donated the tissue for science. After all, it does me no good, and the cells within it could have helped a whole lot of poeple.
