Yeah, that was me. Sorry, I must admit to hating when people pull entries, but I realized that I was just posting something that was going to start more 'YOU SUCK - NO, YOU SUCK' posts and I pulled it.
Well, since I got caught ( ), I suppose I have to say waht it was about, don't I? I was merely pointing out that I read an article today where George Bush states that he won't support funding stem cell research because he is opposed to the idea that you have to end life to save lives.
This coming from the Commander-in-Chief of the US Military who regularly kills in order to save lives. I'm not saying that the military is evil (far from it - I have a great respect for those in uniform) - I have nothing but bitter contempt for the Jackass GWB making a statement like I paraphrased in the above paragraph.
But I didn't actually say that because I removed it. It never happened. Please disperse. Nothing to see here.

I was going to agree with you anyways, and add a little text stating my opinion. Damn I was so looking forward to that one, its a classic argument about ethics and certain politicians's hypocrisy towards what they claim is ethical.

Sure, but the issue I raise in this topic isn't "Stem Cell Research GOOD" or "Stem Cell Research BAD". The issue is of GWB stating that he is opposed to ending life as a measure of saving lives when it's demonstrably untrue.

What does John Kerry have to do with the topic at hand? Oh yeah. Nothing. How about being straightforward for a change - it's alot more interesting than being smarmy, evasive and lame.
