VIDEO: Obama bans funding for Adult Stem Cell Research behind closed doors CONTRADICTING his own speeches! More stem cell info at http://StemCellAnswers.com.
Alas, he didn’t do it intentionally. That language appeared in funding bills on a regular basis throughout the Bush years, and because Bozo didn’t actually read the bill - and neither did anybody on his team, obviously - he didn’t know it was still in there when he signed it.
He knew.
It was all political theatre.
And a doctor on Oprah’s show surprised her by saying that embryonic stem cells can cause cancer because we have no way of controlling their growth.
These Leftists should be required to have the medical experiments using embryonic stem cells done on themselves, since they bleated the loudest that mean Pres. Bush was depriving the world of a cure for everything from athlete’s foot to Alzheimer’s.
You said, "Alas, he didnt do it intentionally"
Why would you want him to intentionally ban Adult Stem Cell Research?
That's where all the progress has been made, and it doesn't have anything to do with embryos.
I wouldn't be surprised if this is intentional, to shift all the government funding to Embryonic Stem Cell Research.
What a SOB.
Sorry, my mistake! I read the headline on the post (which did not say adult), and when I read the first line of the text, I just mentally skipped over the word “adult.” I had read earlier about the fact that he had accidentally signed a bill that actually restricted EMBRYONIC stem cell research on the same day he gave an order permitting it.
Yes, you’re right, of course, he is moving money away from ADULT stem cell research to give it to EMBRYONIC stem cell research (well, as soon as he is legally permitted to spend that money).
My apologies for not reading carefully!
Obama said it was a matter of conscience that motivated his decision. I see no reason why taxpayers should be forced to fund research into unproven technologies and using methods they may find morally repugnant, the President said. Sacrificing embryos to obtain stem cells is one thing. Sacrificing adults goes beyond what I think is tolerable for a civilized society.
The President pointed out that those who believe in adult stem cell research are still free, as were the advocates of embryonic stem cell research, to pursue private sector sources of funding. All I am doing is cutting off access to public monies for this nefarious practice. The shoe is now on the other foot. Get used to it.

He doesnt know what the hell he is doing.
Going around bowing, signing bills he hasnt bothered to read, flying all over the world, spending money like a fool,talking trash, lying his butt off, reneging on campaign promises.
They don’t want adult stem cell treatments to work. That would eliminate their excuse for killing innocent babies.
