"I don't want my tax money going towards the harvesting of unborn babies. Give up YOUR tax money.

And the libs don't want their tax money to support the war or the military etc. So what? Get over it. Taxpayers never have had the option to select and pay only for government programs they agree with.

It is my right to let my voice be heard that I do not want the federal goverment involved in fetal stem cell research. Maybe this isn't a moral quandry for you but it is for me. Is it protection of the unborn something you care about? Or do you want the government in the business of harvesting human beings for research? If the answer is yes, perhaps you can fill in for a Matrix movie robot.

Yeah, well here's your and the rest of the lefts problem, the constitution gives the government that power specifically.

So what? Get over it. Taxpayers never have had the option to select and pay only for government programs they agree with.

Here's your next problem, the first amendment which acknowledges the God given right to freely exercise religion. Under that amendment, people who see utilitarian research that destroys human life as a grave sin have no obligation to be forced to pay for it.

Of course the exercise of religion is anathema to the left and to you as well I suspect.

Yes they have. Through their selection of representatives and Senators who write the laws.
