Look at these filthy theocrats - using our own science against us!

This is not good for the sacred cause of Abortion.

Scientists have made ordinary human skin cells take on the chameleon-like powers of embryonic stem cells, a startling breakthrough that might someday deliver the medical payoffs of embryo cloning without the controversy.

Ah yes, the medical payoffs of embryo cloning. What were those again?

“Damn. Now we have to come up with some other reason to murder babies. Alternative energy, maybe?”

How’s Arnold’s multimillion dollar “investment” of tax money in embryo destruction looking now? Thank God for the native born clause in the Constitution.

“...cells that were virtually indistinguishable from stem cells.”
Let’s wait until the cells are literally indistinguishable. I think there is a great difference between the two words when it involves medicine.

By the time they get these cells fine-tuned enough to be useful for treatments, they will be viable embryos. I don’t have a problem with any kind of embryonic stem research, but those who object to stopping the development of any viable embryo in order to use its cells for treatment or research shouldn’t get too excited about this. The rest of us, however, are thrilled that serious progress appears to have been made towards creating genetically matched totipotent stem cells for treatment.

"Other scientists said it's too early for the field to follow Wilmut's lead. Cloning embryos to produce stem cells remains too valuable as a research tool, Jaenisch said. "

An unborn child is just a "research tool" for these scumbags.

Nuremberg Code, anyone?

It would be interesting to see if this research was funded by the government or the public sector.

As long as there's money to be made, you bet.

And here's another victory from taking a moral stand.

Had W never stood up to the political pressure from the pro-aborts, this would never have come to pass.

Stem Cell Breakthrough Uses No Embryos

And how is this supposed to advance the abortion industry and its sponsor, the Democrat Party USA?

Either that, or they will cut off funding for this new technique since it is no longer a political wedge issue they can ride.
