""Reagan lashed out at Bush's refusal to expand the use of embryonic cell research.
"For the federal government, for this administration, to stand in its way just to pander to people who, well-meaning as they may be, are, I think, ignorant of the facts, is just unconscionable to me," he said.
"There's no downside to this. There's no real moral problem here. We're talking about cells in a petri dish, not creatures with brains and spinal cords and fingers and toes." ""
Shame on this man for dishonoring his father's memory this way.
Those cells are human beings, with the appropriate features for that stage of development. We were all the same, except that we were not quite as vulnerable to the malignant intentions of those who deliberately created us in vulnerability.
I pray that Mr. Reagan will realize how ignorant *he* is and come back to the public arena to set the record straight.

I could only hope someone as narrowed minded as Little Ronnie could see the parallelisms. Still, my hopes will never be fulfilled with the likes of him prancing around in his underwear.
It still disturbs me though that Nancy is advocating the use of embryonic stem cells when adult stem cells continue to be available. Does she really believe only aborted lives can regenerate adult beings? Maybe Nancy should look at this cartoon as well!
