To play devil's advocate (I support the President's position because it is the President's): why is it an all or nothing proposition? Can't these life forms have less value than a developed human but more value than Baco's?

Oh, a lot of people make this argument. Of course, a lot of people make the argument that a quadrapalegic or somebody with Parkinson's is a life form with less value than a "normal" human being. Once you start assigning relative values to various kinds of human life, it does not make sense to draw a line at some arbitrary point.

Of course, people do. That doesn't make it right.

Did I make that argument? If I did, it was a typo. I was talking about frozen embryos.
