As a scientist, I can safely say that it never was the "judgment of science" that [embryonic] stem cells hold the cure to every disease, if only we could do research on them. In fact, I could give a very detailed, science-based explanation of why I do not think that is at all true, and why "adult" stem cell research is the way to go.
Liberals have a long history of distorting science to fit their political agenda. When the science is against them, they label it as "conservative talking points" and outright reject it.
Oops. I should have mentioned that even “adult” stem cell researched is over-hyped.
