Looks like all federal funding that destroys human embryos can be cut.

Sorry, no. Embryonic stem cell research is needed as an excuse for abortions. It was never about outcomes. It was always about misdirection.

[left that other site]

Embryonic Stem Cell research is a dead end. There has been nothing valuable resulting from it, but the pro-death crowd wants it to continue so that they can say that some “good” comes out of abortion.

BTW, since Roe vs Wade, over 60 MILLION lives have been snuffed out. That rivals the death count of some very nasty 20th Century Dictators, whose names I shall not mention, in order to be in compliance with “Goodwin’s Law”.

Meanwhile, Stem Cell research that is NOT from aborted babies continues quietly, saving and restoring lives.

Go Figure.

You stupid right wing nuts need to realize that there will always and forever be an overwhelming need to kill unborn babies so we can harvest their organs for other legitimate purposes.

Just as I never would have bought a lamp shade made of human skin in the 30’s I'd never want a medical treatment developed through the killing of children.I'd rather be blind or have diabetes.

Sorry, michael j fox and others. I KNEW BACK THEN that Gd would NEVER cure us with our own dead children. It was a test. THERE IS ALWAYS ANOTHER WAY.

Superman was wrong, George W Bush was right, and California wasted another $300 million.

At the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus, they have been doing this research for years. They developed a way of making adult stem cells behave like embryonic stem cell (pluripotent cells) largely b/c there was no funding for embryonic stem cell research. As it turned out, the adult stem cells are far better b/c they don't bring with them the danger of malignant tumors nor rejection. I asked Dr. Dennis Roop, director of the Charles C Gates Center for Regenerative Medicine, once why Diana DeGette (D Denver) continues to push for embryonic funding if it is inferior and he said he thought she had invested too much time/ effort in the fight to give up. He said it makes no sense to push for it.
At the CCG Center, they are working with kids with fragile skin syndrome, people with severe burns (it is possible to grow enough skin to cover your entire body from a postage stamp piece of skin in 3 weeks), and corneal transplants and more. It is wonderful science: extremely positive and none of it uses aborted babies.

Doesn’t matter to the libtards. Won’t stop them. They are not after anything that resembles the truth but rather they live to control the masses for their own selfish purposes.

[Elsiejay]

Sadly, not so. Embryonic stem cells were quickly adopted as a cause celebre by advocates of the Culture of Death, and they will not easily abandon this weapon.

[DoughtyOne]

Okay, I take it back. The Nobel Committee can get “one thing” right after all. My former comments about them not being able to get anything right, should be amended to address them very seldom getting anything right.
