Stem cells Yes/No

[Torog]

what about all the other conflicts? Serbia, Albania, and countless others. Where was the USA then, when innocents were being killed for no reason by dictators, cities being bombed to the ground indescriminately. The USA wasnt there bacuase there was nothing in it for the president to help these people. Now im not saying that Saddam Hussein wasnt a terrible person, but i am saying that if bush is so keen on defending Freedom and Liberty against those who desire to crush it, then why not defend all the countries instead of just the ones that will get him financial gain?

Howdy Kid,

Gee..correct me if I'm wrong..but I thought that we did go to Bosnia/Serbia..I guess it doesn't count..when democrappers go to war..I remember reading about how Klintoon,was gittin a blow-job from Monica,when one of his field commanders called from Serbia..hmm..how quickly,the Left forgets.

Maybe you forgot-that America was attacked by muslim jihadists on 9/11/01,seems like a logical choice,to go after those responsible and focus our efforts there,instead of spreading ourselves all over the world.

As for financial gain,Bush's financial records,are public..if he's making so much money off the war on terror,you'd think that by now..the Left would have exposed such gains.

Have a good one....

im all for ADULT strem cell research.

My dad died of bone marrow cancer two years ago. They were trying to kill all his cancerous cells so they could use his own stem cells to rebuild his bone marrow (blood cell factory). This is after no family members matched his stem cells for a transplant. The treatment to kill the cancer, killed him before it got all the cancer. A matching stem cell donor or a new method might have made a difference. He was only 58 and in very good health leading up to this. Took him in less than one year. He was a good and cool guy. If they aren't killing people or animals for the research, what's the problem?

stem cells are specialized cells that have the ability to become any type human cell. Stem cells are NOT brain cells. When the sperm fertilzes the egg and the egg begins to divy up those first building blocks are stem cells. They could become any type of human tissue (maybe not red bloods cells, they're kinda differant). The idea is that if somebody has a spinal cord injury (like christopher reeve) stem cells could be transformed in to new spinal cord cells. This applies to any damaged cells a person may have that the human body can't naturally regenerate (ie: neurons in the brain). Stem cell research could bring many groundbreaking new cures to diseases. The main debate surrounding them though is that pro-life types beleive that using a fertilized egg for research is murder. I don't personally agree, but what ever to each his own I guess

Yes.

so everybody can see it>>>the sentence reads,"Stem cell research COULD bring many groundbreaking new cures to diseases.at this point,it has not.

beleive me, with enough money and resources behind it, it WILL bring those cures. By that I mean to say that what they have learned is very promising

[kevy cola]

could, should, probably will

[amsterdam]

LOL.
