Research facilities that desire money from the government that they can't get from the private sector.
Truth is that this precedure is light years away from yielding a successful treatment for any life threatening disease.
"Drug companies aren't interested in funding that kind of outcome. There's no money in producing brain tumors.
Embryonic stem cell research has ALWAYS been about one thing and one thing only and that is PROTECTING THE RIGHT TO ABORTION."
UH ... Don't think there is a lot of money for the drug companies in "protecting the right to abortion" either ...
I support Michael Reagan and his indirect defense of Rush Limbaugh.
He really turned me off though in the late 90's when I used to listen to his show by calling "Limbaugh's nothing more than a Tie Salesman".
Those ties were ugly, but that petty manuver did not sit well with me. At the time, Rush was challenging my positions and as a result opening my eyes way more than Reagan could ever could.

Demagoguing the issue of ESC research obviously has proved
positively irresistible to the Dems: it seems to offer so many things all at the same time: a justificiation to continue full-throttle abortion, ( we need those embryos,folks), another opportunity to paint those opposed to it as (yes, once again) uncaring, selfish, and socially regressive, another opportunity to set up a politically-defined enclave with multiple-millions flowing into an entire pseudo-medical structure of professionals and even more unskilled associates, all of whom owe jobs and allegiance to those wonderful Democrats who funded their entirely fruitless enterprise. As always with the Dems, their is an attempt to link these things together, so it is never going to be clear whether they're even interested or willing to defend ESC on its own terms: it may just be a sub-issue put in the service of abortion rights....who knows? All I know is there seems to be a particularly desperate attempt underway to spot-weld a bunch of things together, hoping they all rise as one huge hotair balloon
with a giant "D" painted on it, rather than crash to earth , all weakened and discredited together, each "cause" a little the worse for wear. One thing is sure, when they are challenged to actually address the real details of the issue and their exploitation of it, they swerve and all they can talk about is how awful Rush Limbaugh's "mockery" of Michael J. Fox was.
I don't know if you know this but back in da day when Ronnie was still alive Nancy I think because of seeing her husband with alzheirmer fall with Stem cells from infants crowd
Michael believe in adult stem cells that hold more promise I wonder Nancy believe it but I think she egg on by Ron Prescott Reagan her son
bttt
I'd say there is room for compromise here. Any politician who wants to fund ESC research should lead the way for us and get a shot of ES cells.
People who suspect I am slyly setting pols up for brain tumors are not thinking. I said POLITICIANS. They are perfectly safe. It's people with brains who are at risk.
