Just four days before the House took up the issue, the journal Nature Biotechnology published a study showing that cells from amniotic fluid, collected in the course of routine amniocentesis during pregnancy, could have many of the appealing properties of embryonic stem cells, without requiring the destruction of embryos.

This is just the latest in a growing number of scientific publications showing that pluripotent cells can be produced without destroying human embryos. "Pluripotent" means they can be transformed into a wide variety of other types of cells, per the author.

The demogogues, mostly Democrat-Socialist (party name change should be pending), continue to claim that if it were not for President Bush, Alzheimer's etc. would be quickly cured. They are not interested in science, they are interested in political science (same with "global warming"). The media continue to pump out lies and distortions, playing to their dumb audience.

Won't work. We have to kill and approve of killing the unborn. The agenda is set, and nothing will change. Planned Preditors and the democratic party cannot accept scientific proof that there are alternatives to murdering the unborn.

Smithers, get me 5000 cc's of that precious amniotic fluid-with a stem cell chaser.

There's a thread here, I think it's called Planned Parenthood exposed that shows a clinic counseling a 13 year old girl who got pregnant with a 22 year old boy on how to get an abortion without getting the predator in trouble. There's a link to you tube.
