If bush won't allow Stem-Cell research because it kills a human
Edited on Sat Jul-22-06 12:37 PM by Bluerthanblue
life, (albeit a non-born one) how in the world can he justify sending soldiers to Iraq,& Afghanistan fully KNOWING that his actions will bring about the killing of an unknown percentage of those soldiers?
And the killing of an unknown percentage of 'civilians'? Bystanders?

How in the world can he justify funding weaponry, that is DESIGNED to end human lives- and does not discriminate between 'innocent civilians' and 'the enemy'-?

How many war casualties are expected as a result of 'friendly fire'?- My recollection is that it is quite a large percentage.

So waging pre-emptive and revenge motivated war is 'ok'- even though it is without question something that will end the lives of unknown numbers of 'human beings'- but using a frozen embryo to grow cells which give scientists the chance to potentially save the lives of millions of 'human beings' is wrong??


What am I not getting here???- or What is HE not getting- and fooling others into NOT getting???

War stops many beating hearts-
Bombs stop a beating heart-
Collateral Damage= hearts that no longer beat

bush has stopped tens of thousands of beating hearts


(corrected for bad spelling!!)

2. They are not Pro Life, only Pro Birth
It is more about them controlling what others can do more than anything else.
His little veto was a mere token to the religious fanatics in this nation. They are the ones that need to explain how they can support an imbecile who while he claims to be pro life, he orders attacks on nations that result in thousands of deaths.
Those people who continue to support the bu$h regime have the blood of the bu$h regime on their hands as well.

(pro life + pro death)= pro birth only.

6. The Republicans are pro-slavery. Let anyone who can't
do slave work die from either old age or malnutrition. For able bodied men and women that are outside of their scope as potential slaves, kill them all, especially if their homeland is sitting on top of any valuable resources such as oil. No birth control as it cuts down on the number of potential slaves.

3. The old bait and switch. Plus, a liberal dose of pandering.
With some well seasoned not caring about life, only about getting ahead no matter who gets hurts. Which shell is democracy under?

4. "bush has stopped tens of thousands of beating hearts"
and there's no end in sight. The man, his masters, and his minions are evil. They don't care about little clusters of cells any more than they care about living breathing human beings. His infamous stem-cell research veto is simply posturing for his stupid little "base"--gotta keep those morons voting for the repugs...

I have never hated anyone as much as I hate that idiotic evil bastard.
