The Republican controlled Senate, according to the puppeteer actually has about 60 votes to pass the bill as well but the Rove controlled Bush will be using his first ever veto on it. Appointing himself a scientist as well as a puppeteer, Rove said that science gets more use from adult stem cells than embryonic ones. This new bill would expand stem cell research into embryonic cells as scientists with actual degrees in the area say it is vital to stem cell research. Bu they, what's progress, anway?

There's no reason inthe world not to let this go through, outside of some outmoded and outdated moral brain cramp Rove has that he's transferring to Bush. Bush hasn't had an original thought in decades as it is. This subject is also near and dear to my family as well. I have a blind brother who stands to regain his sight if this were to go through. Except for some incompetent office holder/puppet, who wouldn't know an embryo from a Toyota, he gets to stay blind. Real nice. November 2006 here we come.

Now come on. Is that your answer for why Bush is going to VETO this bill? Because he is small minded and can't understand science? Got it.

Bush is smart to only vote for bills he understand!!! But your argument is worse because it suggests politicians understand science. Give me a break!!!

Ask away on the boards here (over in the WDW Trip Planning area, of course), or shoot me an email! "Now come on. Is that your answer for why Bush is going to VETO this bill? Because he is small minded and can't understand science? Got it." That's the most polite way I can put it, yes. "Bush is smart to only vote for bills he understand!!!" Yeah, ok. I believe that. That's why this will be his first veto. Mmm hmm. "But your argument is worse because it suggests politicians understand science. Give me a break!!!" Good point - we know that Dr. Bill Frist doesn't understand it, especially when it comes to comatose patients.

I was tempted to post something about mustard in Lulu's '"my" dog' thread, but I refrained. I had ketchup on a hot dog once. Between the seasonings in the hot dog and the ketchup, it tasted like blood. :-(
