And, stem cell issue which Mother Jones forgets to differentiate into the two almost diametric areas, Adult Stem Cell and Embryonic Stem Cell. Well, the lefties don't always use words for their definitions.
But beyond that stem cell issue raises other questions of life and death and of privacy that increasingly lie just below the surface of political debate. Every so often they emerge in highly charged debate that eventually draws the local, state and federal governmental agencies, the Congress and the court system into deciding whether a person should live or die, whether the state can intrude on an individual's privacy the case of Terri Schiavo providing the most recent example.

The left is frantic in hoping and dreaming to defeat us at the polls. They invoke their Terriphobia again here. May we all vote for Terri on Tuesday!
The commentator asks, "Am I blue"? I hope it expresses her mood on Wednesday.
Is there a sea change afoot? I hope so. I think so. I believe it to be. The tide nationally is turning against the Republicans and the stranglehold the Fundamentalist Christian Right has had on that party since the Reagan era. The Terry Schiavo debacle, the Mark Foley scandal, the Larry Craig outing, the mass exodus of manufacturing jobs, the erosion of civil liberties, Abu Ghraib, warrantless wiretapping, record budget deficits, and the dramatic failure of the war in Iraq – all of these are taking their toll on the party that claimed it was best able to protect us. Five years after the terrorist attacks of September 11, what do we most want protection from? Arrogant, belligerent one-party rule.
