xaq_the_aereonThere were always two thing that confused me about President Bush...
1) Aren't the embryos that would be used in stem cell research ones that are going to simply be disposed of (or, in his own words, "where the life and death decision has already been made")?
If that's the case, wouldn't it be better and more respectful for them to serve a potentially great service to the world rather than...y'know...just going into the garbage and being forgotten?
2) Bush once said, as an argument against assisted suicide, that we should respect the right to life at all stages of it.
...Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't death also a stage of life, and by his own argument, in need of being respected?
