MISCHIEF ABOUT EMBRYONIC STEM CELL RESEARCH.
The Administration strongly opposes House passage of H.R. 810 ... . The bill would compel all American taxpayers to pay for research that relies on the intentional destruction of human embryos for the derivation of stem cells ...
Destroying nascent human life for research raises serious ethical problems, and many millions of Americans consider the practice immoral. --Executive Office of the President, 5/24/2005
Stem cell experts bristled at President Bush's characterization of embryonic stem cell research as unethical ...
.. Bush has promised to veto any measure broadening embryonic stem cell research, saying it crosses "a critical ethical line." --Reuters wire service story, 5/25/2005
And who are the "experts" quoted by Reuters? Sean Tipton, a lobbyist for stem cell research, and Dr. Robert Lanza, a stem cell researcher in a privately owned company, who wants the taxpayer to fund such "unethical" research.
Dr. Lanza is quoted as saying, "Many people believe human life?a person?begins in a woman's uterus, in the mother's womb, not in a Petri dish ... " It is unlikely that, as a scientist, Dr. Lanza actually believes this. In fact, if in vitro fertilization (using human eggs and sperm cells) did not produce a human life in a Petri dish, Dr. Lanza would have no interest in the resulting embryo.
Reuters' favorable treatment of the embryonic stem cell research lobby?and of embryonic stem cell research in general?is typical for the media and most polling organizations.
