This is wonderful, and I am thrilled that this President chose to veto this bill. As has and will be pointed out numerous times, this does not stop the speculative embryonic stem cell research that is already going on, but it keeps government OUT of funding the human-harvesting business.
I just wish more money would be devoted to the much more efficacious adult stem cell and cord blood research. But the infanticide crowd wanted this one to "justify" their views on abortion. It's a big win for our side, instead.
This President has done brilliantly on the WOT, tax cuts, two spectacular Supreme Court nominees, John Bolton, getting us out of ICC and old treaties, and so many other things, this is more proof that he's headed in the right direction. Now, (rolling up sleeves), Mr. President, let's tackle the budget AND our border invasions!
That's 10 lbs of hyperbole in a 5-lb sack. I am anti-abortion and I support embryonic stem-cell research. An embryo is not a human life, it is a lump of chemicals that can be frozen for decades. When it is thawed and implanted, then it is allowed to develop into a human life.
