AMA Supports President's Decision to Fund Stem Cell Research

For immediate release March 9, 2009

Statement attributable to: Joseph Heyman, MD Board Chair, American Medical Association

"The American Medical Association supports President Obama's decision to lift the ban on federal funding of stem cell research. Stem cell research holds great promise to treat diseases that science has so far been unable to cure, and this change in policy will allow researchers to accelerate their efforts by applying for federal research funds.

"The AMA supports biomedical research on stem cells and has encouraged strong public support of federal funding for this research. Today's action by President Obama will help scientists realize the potential of stem cell research to benefit the many Americans living with diseases such as diabetes, Parkinson's and Alzheimer's."

Joseph Heyman, MD Board Chair, American Medical Association, is a liar. There was NO BAN ON FEDERAL FUNDING OF STEM CELL RESEARCH in the United States.

We can guess how ol' Joe voted ~ and boy is he going to be surprised when Obama and his running dog lackeys do not save him for last!

They couldn’t bring themselves to say “embryonic”. It means they are liars and they know it is immoral.

The AMA is just another lobbying group. It’s not called a “union” because that would not be professional. These socialist thugs are for anything that will make money, and medical ethics is just a cheap skirt they hide behind to give them some credibility with the unwashed masses.

"The American Medical Association supports President Obama's decision to lift the ban on federal funding of stem cell research."

The AMA are a bunch of lying quacks then. President Bush was the first President to approve of federal funding for ESC.
