FRIST'S CALCULATIONS [Kathryn Jean Lopez]
From the NYTimes:
Mr. Frist, a heart-lung transplant surgeon who said last month that he did not back expanding financing "at this juncture," announced his decision this morning in a lengthy Senate speech.
If he spent the month polling, I'd fire the pollster.
I started looking at a LATimes story [11:04 AM PDT, July 29, 2005 Frist Breaks With Bush on Stem-Cell Research] and they had this ERRONEOUS statement attributed to Frist,
While he highlighted shortcomings in the pending bill, he said he supports it because research on embryonic stem cells is "the only type that has resulted in proven treatments for human patients."
He actually said,
"Now, to date, adult stem cell research is the only type of stem cell research that has resulted in proven treatments for human patients."
Media Bias? FRAUDcasting? Honest error? Incompetent reporter?
You decide... All I know is that when I find things like that in a "news story", it reinforces why I need to go to the source instead.
I want to make certain these FRAUDcasters aren't just trying to pull one over on us again.
