    Are you sure John isn't channeling there? Looks like he's speaking for someone beyond the grave...

    Duff,

    He said it at a campaign rally yesterday. I guess news travels slow when you have your head up your ass.

    Hey, take it easy on the kid... I just heard about it a couple minutes ago...

    But, hey, if this guy doesn't get elected, he could go on tour with Benny Hinn... once he buys the obligatory white suit.

    Ant it a hoot. The medicine man mentality is finally showing up.
    Believe brother and you shall be healed. If either Kerry or Edwards
    ever told the truth their ears tongue would fall off. But the scary
    thing is so many people believe their crap.

    Edwards: 'We will stop juvenile diabetes, Parkinson's, Alzheimer's and other debilitating diseases... When John Kerry is president, people like Christopher Reeve are going get up out of that wheelchair and walk again.' Edwards made the unprecedented campaign promises during 30-minute speech at Newton High School gym in Newton, Iowa...
    Pathetic.

    Simply pathetic.

    Are any of those things likely to happen without stem cell research? Saying that they will happen is a stretch. They may or may not happen. They won't happen without stem cell research.

    Other countries are going to do this, and beat us to the patents. We'll become a technology backwater, all in the name of religion. Hope that makes you happy, when you have to get in line to get the traitement du Alzheimers, all profits flowing to France or the tratamiento para Parkinsons, cash to Madrid.

    So stem cell research is not occurring? That's a new one.

    On a restricted number of cell lines (72), ALL other closed off. Yeah, lets investigate part of the cures.

    Research using stem cells had been authorized in Britain, but was initially halted in the U.S. by President George W. Bush. He decided on 2001-AUG-9 to allow research to resume in government labs, but restricted researchers to use only 72 existing lines of stem cells. By 2003-MAY, most of these lines had become useless; some of the lines are genetically identical to others; only 11 remain available for research. Research continues in U.S. private labs and in both government and private labs in the UK, Japan, France, Australia, and other countries. On 2002-SEP, Governor Davis of California signed bill SB 253 into law. It is the first law in the U.S. that permits stem cell research. Davis simultaneously signed a bill that permanently bans all human cloning in the state for reproduction purposes -- i.e. any effort to create a cloned individual.
    Following former president Ronald Reagan's death due to Alzheimer's in 2004-JUN -- a slow, lingering death that took a decade to kill him, Nancy Reagan and all of her family, except for Michael Reagan, have mounted a campaign to encourage President Bush to relax restrictions on embryo stem cell research. Fifty-eight senators, almost all Democrats, sent a letter to President Bush, urging the same action.

    That's only embryonic stem cell research, not all.

    From the same article:
    Stem cells can also be extracted from adult tissue, without harm to the subject. Unfortunately, they are difficult to remove, are severely limited in quan y, and appear to be limited in usefulness.

    So adult stem cells are ineffective.

    Pretty much. As adult cells go, they are generic, but they are more specific than embryonic stem cells, and are less useful. That's why cord blood/placental blood are more effective in bone marrow transplants than adult marrow donations. They work a higher percentage of the time because they reject less often, due to their genericness. Early embryonic cells are even more generic and effective.

    Great. Let's go rip up some embryos and get those stem cells.

    I don't believe even Superman was arguing that embryonic stem cells would lead to a miracle cure, but might have some "therapeutic" benefits.
