This development will be downplayed by the Left, as its propaganda value is negligible. What good is a "cure" if it has no political import? You can't use to to demonize evil Republicans (or anyone else who don't want to sacrifice embroyos so paraplegics can wiggle their toes).

That nails it. You're on target.

Too bad John Kerry wasn't elected, then this would be happening in humans too.

BTW, what about cats? Aren't we being a bit intolerant here?

Well, I'll be damned. Whoda thunk a shot of Prestone could do that. 'Course, back in the day, I'd had stiff belts of pure West Virginia moonshine that could've made the dead walk.......and the chemical properties were probably the same, too. :-)

Wow! And no people-to-be had to die! We better hurry and spread the word before the 'choice' people squelch it. If it doesn't come from aborted 'harvested' (that's so Nazi) fetal cells, they aren't interested and don't want us to be, either. After all, they wouldn't want to reduce their bottom line.

Probably not much for those already paralyzed, but for those who will sustain spinal cord injury in the future, it could be very significant for just how much they can recover.

Soon after the dog got the chemical treatment, he began walking, although his back legs work in unison, giving him an unusual gait.

Now THAT'S funny!
