Dear God, I can't believe it !! Christoher Reeve's body is hardly cold and Paul Begala, the left-wing, radical co-host of CNN's Crossfire,is dancing on his casket already. One can't say he's "dancing on his grave" because he isn't even in the ground yet. During his despicable monologue today he said that "Christopher Reeve was mentioned in Friday night's debate by HIS FRIEND, John Kerry." He then went on to say that Christopher Reeve had committed his life to lobbying for stem cell research in hopes of finding a cure for his paralysis. He did not fail to mention that George W. Bush opposes embryonic stem cell research but John Kerry and Nancy Reagan favor it.
If it wasn't for low class, this guy and the Dims would have no class at all. Hopefully, this will put a bad taste in the mouth of honorable Americans.
As an aside, if stem cell research held the promise that these liberal groups think it does, private research firms would be knocking each other down to get there first. I don't see them volunteering their capital for this research, do I?
You picked my brain! The RATS are incapable of telling the truth!
This is not meant to be a smear on Reeves, who was an inspiration given the tragedy he suffered.
John Kerry danced on Ronald Reagan's casket and TOOK PICTURES.
*jaw drop* someone actually cut off Estrich? DAMMIT I always miss all the good stuff...
Correction. Not correcting you, but Begala.
George W. Bush DOES support embryonic stem cell research along with adult and umbilical stem cell research. However, Bush does NOT support destroying any more embryos and fetuses to support stem cell research. There are already some stem cell lines from embryos who have already been destroyed and the research will be done using those lines, using adult stem cells, or using umbilical stem cells. Kerry wishes and Reeve wished to destroy further life to support research that only has a minute chance of having any real benefit.
When my wife and I heard the sad news concerning Chris Reeves I told her that the dims would be blaming Pres. Bush for his death.
All these years, Reeves has been talking about funding research for "nerve cell regeneration" which appears to be promising. Where's all the dope on him switching to stem cell research?? I can't find it.
Democrats are the most ghoulish people in the world. They try to turn every death, funeral, et cetera into a political statement. They have no couth.
When I first heard of Chris Reeve's death, I couldn't help but think that the Dem's would somehow try and use this against Bush. Looks as if I were right.
I was thinking this very thing this morning. Add to that the fact the Pres. Bush has allowed the strains that exist to be used. They can't logically argue that Pres. Bush killed Mr. Reeves.
But they will....
Crocodile tears from the Forehead of Effluvia.
Of course not.
If Begala and his group make more of this than they have, like a commercial against Bush or something, I hope it becomes this election's Wellstone moment.
Michael Reagan has challenged Kerry to a debate about stem cells - he actually works for with an Alzheimers Research group. What do you wanna bet Kerry ignores him? Of course, Ballerina Ron is on Begala's side and I'm sure will take no time to start blasting Bush. He will probably be on PMSNBC tonight.
Okay, I'll probably get hammered for this but...so? Christopher Reeves was a wealthy actor who was injured in a sport that requires alot of investment, not your Average Joe. I'm sorry he was hurt and now died. But it hasn't been proven that stem cells would have helped him. And there are many other people without his resources who suffer from diseases that need far more support. Entertainers who suddenly find something to support because it now affects them...is this the true meaning of love thy neighbor? Those average people who give their time and money to causes because they believe in them, not because it might benefit them, are truly heroes.
The media is all over this and exploiting it. They use John Kerry and talk about how Kerry wanted to help Reeve and Bush didn't.
Shame is unknown to the majority of democRats
Be-GAG-la simply had a quicker microphone. I'm sure wittle Wonnie Weagen will have some inane, snarky monlogue to deliver whenever he next curses our airwaves.
As for Susan Ostrich-mouth... I'm serious here... can you see the strings on her. I swear she is one of Henson's Muppets. How many oranges could you put in that cavernous mouth of hers?
Get ready. It's going to get nastier and more outrageous as the election approaches. The Dims (great label whoever came up with that) have lawyers spread out like cockroaches, oppressed minorities from central casting ready to act properly outraged on cue, and every elite media outlet ready to instantly transcribe whatever bogus claims they make verbatim on their pages and airwaves.
The best defense against this lunacy is a little jujitsu. Bush supporters need to do everything in their power to simply expose these folks for who and what they are. Hey, CBS... nailed. ABC... nailed. NBC... you're on the clock.
