I have close friends who are quadriplegics and paraplegics, I would love to give them the opportunity to walk again. But I also realize if stem cells were so promising that private companies would be lined up doing this research.

I would love for everybody to be cured. I'd love to have the stents in my heart mysteriously disappear and my pipes be as wide open as they were when I was a 15 year old. I would love for my wife to never have had bilateral breast cancer and a brain tumor the size of a large orange. I would love to have my little brother back but I'm sure he's happy in heaven with our Mom and Dad and the Good Lord. But I wouldn't want any of that if I had to kill an unborn human being to get it.

ESR has demonstrated no efficacy for the ill and maimed. Adult stem cell research has demonstrated efficacy in many areas. The notion that the government is going to make me pay to kill what I consider human life pisses me off more than you will ever know.

Stem cell research reminds me of the Nazis using human skin to make lamp shades. Sure, it shows promise to some, but where do we draw the line? Good for Bush. Did he toss us a bone? Or is he bipolar?
