JDN--The truth is that there aren't enough fetuses which are miscarried to satisfy the need for stem cells; furthermore, miscarried fetuses frequently have deteriorated too much for their stem cells to be useful for research purposes, also. Bush can "hope" that miscarried fetuses are sufficient in number to properly supply researchers, and I hope that I'm gonna win the lottery tomorrow, too, but neither are very likely to happen... __________________________ Dear ecommerceman: I personally watched that speach, Bush went on to say that he believed such research was beneficial but hoped that they could use embryos from NATURALLY dying babies and not those INTENTIONALLY Aborted. I did NOT get the idea from his speech that he was assailing Fetal Cell Research, merely the means of HARVESTING The Fetal Cells. JDN
