Laughable

Many of our blog readers probably know we're...uh... pretty pro life. In fact, I think in today's rhetoric we are "extremists" or "fanatics" or something - I forget. But I honestly must laugh at how little some for left's politicians actually know about issues like embryonic stem cells. Check out this comment by Bill Clinton on the Scary King Show:

“...if [embryos] are never going to be used to be fertilized, to bring a life into being, then I think making them available for medical research is the pro-life position and I honestly don't understand -- I would understand it if we were going and raiding stem cell banks, where these stem cells were going to be used to actually fertilize eggs and have babies.”

You can't fertilize an embryo - it wouldn't be an embryo if it wasn't fertilized. Sorry Clinton, that science thing can get complicated. Despite many words employed to jump around this fact - science is unanimously in agreement that once an egg is fertilized it is a unique being. Not mother or father but unique with its own DNA. The last sentence is my favorite though; using stem cells to fertilize eggs and have babies. Wow.

My unsolicited advice: stop making promises about embryonic stem cells and learn the facts. Science is amazing. This purely political move is empty and gravely immoral.
