Bush veto'd the stem cell bill life protecting Democrats put together to help find cures to AIDS, Cancer, Immune Issues, even ways to help grow an organ to be transplanted in a patient thats been on a waiting list for years.
It could also help cure so many illnesses and mankind could achieve a new height in medicine . but bushs response to it was: NO. WHY you ask? because of his religious beliefs.
bush disregarded science, medicine , and many years of research to help mankind through stem cells especially embrionic stem cells.
What has the republican party come to? they say they are pro life but are against anyting that can help advance medicine.
This is disappointing.
thank god he'll be back to texas in less than 2 years.

Here is a lesson for you. First, he did not veto a stem cell bill, he vetoed an embryonic stem-cell bill. This is a common mistake for liberals who want to blur the line on what is acceptable and what is not. This technique is similar to saying "immigrant" instead of "illegal immigrant."
Second, embryonic stem-cell research has resulted in absolutely ZERO scientific or medical discoveries, yet every time a test is performed a human being at the very earliest stage of life is killed. On the other end of the spectrum, though, adult stem-cell, spinal fluid, placebo fluid, etc. have resulted in many discoveries (eg. help eliminate or lessen diabetes) without killing a human being. Why is it that liberals take such pleasure in killing babies?
Third, get your facts straight. Why do embryoes (the smallest and most innocent of humans) have to die in order to pursue purely speculative research?

After decades of research all that has been produced from embryonic stem cell research are cancerous tumors and deformities.
You liberals aren't trying to save lives. What you are really trying to do is justify the killing of human embryos so you can make abortion more attractive. It's not enough for liberals that over a million babies are murdered in abortion mills every year in America. You want more...
Proof of my correctness is the fact that I never hear liberals scream for funding for the other kinds of stem cell research that have already given us cures for many diseases. Liberals only scream for the killing of human embryos to pursue research that has caused cancer.All you really want is another way to kill unborn babies.

First of all, he isn't hateful, he just doesn't believe in using aborted fetuses.
I support stem cell research though, because, with abortion being legal, there will always be aborted fetuses, so why should the ones that were aborted already not be used?
I do not, however, think that people should get pregnant and/or have abortions solely to provide aborted fetuses. Only ones that would have been aborted anyways, and with the consent of the would be mother, plus the would be mother does not get any money or payment for the abortion. That would prevent people getting pregnant and having abortions just for money.

you make the government out as the boogy man. why should the government even be in the research buisness anyway? the government is into our lives much to far as it is. when the presidential candidates are going to spend around 100 million dollars each to try and become president i think that that mone;y could be used better on research items instead of being used to irriatate people with all the junk ads on tv and the radio. our congress people are over paid whimps so why don't they kick in some of their millions that probably they came by in some shady manner. it is time to get the govenment out of our pockets and spend it wisely. besides i haven't heard of one desease that has been erradicated in the ten plus years that this research has been going on. if you can name one desease that stem cell research has erradicated i will yeild to you.

Okay here goes...Embryonic stem cells are the same thing as stem cells taken from cord blood, or even stem cells in your body. A stem cell is simply a cell that has not gone through differentiation yet. That just means that it is not sure what type of cell that it will be when it matures. Like the cell does not know if it will be a blood cell or a liver cell, etc. So, what is the difference in getting stem cells from an embryo that you have to kill or getting them from cord blood? Cord blood is drawn from every baby born in the USA to test for disease, why not fight to have what blood is left over after testing to be sent to research labs and not kill those embryos. GWB, and all of his faults, is NOT against stem cell research but is against EMBRYONIC stem cell research.

There is no law on the books against private firms experimenting with stem cell research. Bush only opposes government funding of stem cell research.

Please get your facts somewhat straight before you start your tirade. Embryonic stem cells have not proven useful in any testing but adult stem cells have. Bush is only against embryonic stem cell testing but is in favor of the use of adult stem cells that have proven to aid in fighting such diseases as diabetes.

You make it sound more promising than it is, but I'll give you the points you make.
The only thing I'd like to dispute is that you lambast and insult Bush and then say, "What has the Republican party come to?" This is all on Bush, man. He's a lone wolf, out there all on his own. Even Republicans don't, for the most part, like him.

Learn the difference between embryonic stem cells and adult stem cells . There you will find the answer to your question. President Bush knew what he was doing.

There are enough stem cells to do necessary research. As this world embarks on the final path the last thing we need is more gene alterations. Scientist always try to gain their way by twisting facts. Lucky Bush has the guts to stand up for what is right. We all know the libs will approve anything that takes away from morality.
