Last week, the White House invited me to a signing ceremony overturning the Bush (43) executive order on stem cell research. I assume this was because I have long argued in these columns and during my five years on the President's Council on Bioethics that, contrary to the Bush policy, federal funding should be extended to research on embryonic stem cell lines derived from discarded embryos in fertility clinics.

He demonstrates perfectly why Libertarian ≠ Conservative.
No, more like the moral equivalent of an ingrown toenail.
Amazing << Hear this. Feel this, and tell me that this isn't music.
Oh, dear...
Your point’s well taken.
My only quibble - I don’t think one can easily pigeonhole Krauthammer in either the conservative or libertarian camp (he’s certainly not out there with the hard-core Randians).
But if you wanted to argue he’s more libertarian than conservative, I’d have a hard time refuting you.
Still like the guy, though.
LOL-That’s a good one.
Do the baby teeth have to be newly “lost”....or preserved in some way.....just wondering....I have some of my 38 year old son’s baby teeth....wondering if they might come in handy sometime for him???
I never wondered where Charles Krauthamer was coming from nor frome whence came Kristol and Barnes. Are you somehow naming Charles Chuckie?
Is that meant to demean? And if so say something about Barnes and Kristol because I’m starting to get the impression there is a certain secret handshake I’ve not been shown.
You are reading too much into my comments. I just find Charles to be a hypocrite after trashing McCain in all of the debates, thus undermining VERY weak support. And now, somehow this genius is just now seeing Obama as the threat he is. Pathetic. Krauthammer is a bona fide genius. His resume is breathtaking. He is a true intellectual and the .0005% of us GOP members who are attracted to the intellectual GOP (stop laughing) find him compelling. We were disappointed by his lack of enthusiasm for McCain when any simple moron could see that Obama would be a spectacular disaster. It just burns me. Reminds me of the intellectuals in Germany that thought Hitler would be a breath of fresh air for the Deutsche Volk. Some breath! AGGGUHHH!
There is other scientific talk about growing new teeth that have been removed. I think this too is using the baby teeth stem cells. Just think, no more expensive crowns and root canals. Just pull it out and grow a new one.
Krauthypocrite is a tool.
I am in my mid fifties and currently in remission for Leukemia. I cannot imagine sacrificing a human life to cook up a witches brew that once injected into me would cure my disease. It is reprehensible and in another time would be the stuff thought up by Nazi scientists.
This is nothing more than the cheapening of life caused by the casual acceptance of Abortion as a means to an end. To say the false Messiah sickens me would be much too kind.
I think one word describes them: antihuman. If you are a Christian, you would say it was the antiChrist.
will,
I think everybody misunderstood my point.
In medicine, the stem cell goal is to grow specific tissues or specific organs.
Doctors do not want to grow an entire human body and then harvest a tiny part of it for productive use.
Agriculturally, I’m thinking of a scene like this...
A greenhouse with thousands and thousands of apples, just apples, growing in, or attached to, a little dish of nutrients.
No plant, no roots, no leaves.
Just thousands and thousands of perfect apples.
