President Bush reaches principled decision on stem cell research
MMM
On Saturday, August 11, 2001, I sent an eMail response to Republican National Committee
Deputy Chairman Jack Oliver who said:
MMM
[President George W.] Bush revealed a decision that demonstrates his fundamental
commitment to preserving the value and sanctity of human life and his desire to
promote vital medical research.
MMM
That's not what I heard. I heard the fuckin' idiot condemn thousands, perhaps millions,
of people for whom medical help might be found to lives of misery without hope of relief.
MMM
Bush was also guided by his belief that human life is a sacred gift from our Creator.
MMM
Neither his parents nor yours are mentioned in the Constitution under which I live.
He's not entitled to his own. Neither are you.
MMM
President Bush will not allow any federal funds for:
(1) the derivation or use of stem cell lines derived from newly destroyed embryos;
MMM
(2) the creation of any human embryos for research purposes;
MMM
(3) or the cloning of human embryos for any purpose.
MMM
Crimes for which the unelected asshole should be charged with malfeasance in office.
MMM
President Bush also believes that great scientific progress can be made through
aggressive federal funding of research on umbilical cord placenta, adult, and
animal stem cells that do not involve the same moral dilemma.
MMM
But scientists in the field don't thus making the superstitious election thief a a dangerous
dictator by striving to preserve ignorance. What's next? No funding for schools?
MMM
As a result, President Bush announced that this year the government will
spend $250 million on this important research.
MMM
A pittance far exceeded by drug companies who will overcharge us for
the fruits of their research.
MMM
The United States has a long record of leading the world toward advances in
science and medicine that improve human life;
MMM
That the idiot's policies will terminate! Fortunately, there are other countries with
institutions and scientists who will do the work undone in the USA.
MMM
I know all Americans are proud of the way in which the President took a
careful, thoughtful and statesmanlike approach to this decision.
MMM
How DARE you?!? I'm profoundly embarrassed by his decision and you should be, too,
as should all right-thinking homo sapiens.
MMM
The President has struck the right balance between advancing medical research to
help people suffering from grave illnesses, protecting the sanctity of human life.
MMM
Bullfuckin'shit!
MMM
I fully support the President's decision as the best course for our nation.
MMM
Then you're no smarter than he. I pray neither you nor your family become afflicted with
something that the drunk-driver's policies will have prevented the cure from coming to be.
