<Obama has NOTHING to do with proposing what type of research is promising or appropriate.>> <That's simply false.> OK, now Obama is proposing research projects... keep digging. < The most important reason why it is false is that there was an executive order against certain research and he issued another order canceling the first one.> Except that isn't important in the process of proposing research. <and while I don't think for the most part, if at all, he personally selects the funding on a very specific level> Exactly. If a LOT of scientists didn't think stem cell research wasn't really promising I bet he wouldn't have ever even heard of it. <Obama is NOT responsible for the research... nor the "killing of human beings" as the piece claims. > <<Not in the most direct sense,>> Which is my point. <The old news story and the Wikipedia article I linked to where not pro-life/anti-abortion, not even vaguely.> Right, everything you've linked wasnt pertinent nor supportive to your assertions... which I pointed out. Don't know why you posted them. DAK
