My daughter’s first picture

Yes, this really is a picture of my daughter at the blastocyst stage, about 100 cells and five days after fertilization. This is what researchers will destroy, funded in part by taxpayer dollars in the future, in order to come up with a miracle cure for something even though privately funded research has come up with nothing. Adult stem cell research has shown promise, and it doesn’t destroy anything. And through that kind of research, you can potentially use your own DNA to create parts you might need one day. Way to put science first, eh?
Going against the liberal thought, PJ O’Rourke, a cancer patient, slams Obama for his justification of allowing federal funds for embryonic stem cell research. I say going against liberal thought because liberals think people always vote in their own self interests — got cancer, vote for stem cell research that might cure it; make less than $250,000, vote for the guy that will give you a tax break. However, some of us actually vote based on principles, something liberals just don’t understand.
So, take a look, Obama. That’s a picture of my daughter up there, and I would no sooner destroy that to cure my mom of diabetes than destroy her now, as an almost three-year-old, in the same vain.
