Bush's Stubborn Stance on Stem Cells to Cost Conservatives Votes in November |
Use that Veto. Bring it on!

Stem cells a vote breaker for some Americans
CINCINNATI, July 18 (Reuters) - Debi Martin is a Christian, a
Republican and opposes abortion but she is ready to vote against the
party in November if President George W. Bush and congressional
Republicans limit stem cell research.
"This is a vote breaker for me," said the Cincinnati mother. "I tell
people I'm becoming a Republi-crat at this point -- because there are
just things wrong in the Republican Party where people's voices are
not being heard anymore."
The passage on Tuesday of a Senate bill to fund embryonic stem cell
research -- and a presidential veto expected on Wednesday killing the
legislation -- hits very close to home for Martin. Her 9-year-old
daughter, Jessi, has diabetes and they both hope stem cell research
can some day find a cure.
Martin also feels strongly about the use of embryonic stem cells for
research because Jessi was conceived by in vitro fertilization -- and
Martin and her husband decided years ago to discard nine unused
embryos because she could not have another child.
"I would give anything if I could have had those nine cells to give to
have a cure for my baby now," she said. "And I think the worst sin of
all, and I am a very religious person, I am pro-life, is to look a
miracle from God in the face and throw it away."
There are few issues in America quite as emotional as this one, which
would expand federal funding for research with unused human embryos
that doctors say could lead to breakthroughs against diabetes,
Parkinson's disease and spinal cord injuries.
The debate has set Republicans like Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist,
a physician, against Bush, who has threatened to use his veto power
for the first time to reject the legislation.
The division among Republicans could have political fallout. Polls
show most Americans support the research and Democrats are hoping a
voter backlash against Republicans who oppose it will win them enough
votes to seize control of Congress at the November mid-term election.
POLITICAL LAND MINE
When Bush restricted the use of federal funds for stem cell studies in
2001, several states moved ahead with their own laws to either limit
or advance research.
Governors from Delaware, Illinois, Iowa, Michigan, New Jersey, New
Mexico, Oregon and Wisconsin sent a letter to senators on Tuesday
urging them to support the bill.
The topic is especially hot in Missouri, where Republican Gov. Matt
Blunt is backing a November ballot initiative for a constitutional
amendment to protect stem cell research.
But Republican Sen. Jim Talent, who won his seat in 2002 by just one
percentage point, opposes expanded research and could lose his seat
over the issue in November amid heavy campaigning by his Democratic
opponent in favor of stem cell studies.

Once again, the President is out of touch with the majority of
Americans -- and once again he demonstrates that he doesn't care. That
familiar arrogance will cost his party dearly in November. The coming
elections will demonstrate how far the Republican Party has strayed
from mainstream conservative issues at the expense of serving the
Religious Right. Meanwhile Democrats are eagerly anticipating the
Bush Administration's next fatal political mistake.

She's a "Christian," and she is pro-life, but she discarded her own
embryos? (Nine "lives" as conservatives like to call anything they
can't exploit or lock up.) How is that pro-life?
Another Republican hypocrite.

ES Cell, Bush is a shamefull idiot
This is a sad day for Americans. Most everyone knows by now that
embryonic stem (ES) cells are capable of becoming any type of cell in
the body - blood, eyes, muscle, nerve, brain and bone, to name a few.
Many scientists believe they hold the as yet unproven possibility of
providing treatments for many diseases, including Parkinson's,
diabetes, spinal cord injury and cancer. The term "stem cell" creates
confusion because there are many types of stem cells in the human body.
The stem cell in the bone marrow for example can become any type of
blood cell. But while adult stem cells might help with some diseases,
many leading researcher believe ES cells hold by far the greatest
promise.
Kennedy stood with Nancy Reagan, Senator Trent Lott of Mississippi, and
Senator Orrin Hatch of Utah, national Republican figures who have
embraced stem cell research.
For people suffering a variety of ailments, there is no middle ground.
Federal funding of research on a broader supply of stem cells should
proceed in earnest. We can fund abstinence, a unnecessary war; why
not medical research?
Other European countries are going to beat us on this issue.
Shalom,

Do Bush followers have a political ideology? "Now, in order to be
considered a "liberal," only one thing is required - a failure to
pledge blind loyalty to George W. Bush."Bush was warned of al-Qaeda

On the other hand, I hope the conservatives LOSE both houses of

have to start answering some very hard questions. And then maybe we
can start cleaning up the messes that Bush has been creating.

Bother me? Not in the least. I think this was the wrong bill to be
the first to veto. I think that Conservatives will have a hard time
come November.
Sounds like good news to me.
Stem cells won't generate enough votes to do diddly.

June 30, 2006:
On Tuesday, the Mexican foreign secretary went on a radio program in
Mexico City and said,
“If there is a real wave of rights abuses, if we see the National Guard
starting to directly
participate in detaining people, we would immediately start filing
lawsuits through our
consulates.”
Last night, O’Reilly fired back:
“Okay then, Mr. Secretary. Here’s a no-spin message right back to you.
If the Mexican
government files one lawsuit in the USA, one, pertaining to the National
Guard, I will call for
a total boycott of Mexican goods and no travel to your country. Now that
might sound
presumptuous and I don’t mean to be threatening, but enough’s enough. It
is your
government’s fault, sir, that there is border chaos. We in America have
a right to security
and a right to expect our immigration laws be enforced. So, once again,
any action by the
Mexican government that impacts border security in the USA will be met
with a boycott
call. And if you don’t believe me or you think it doesn’t matter, Mr.
Secretary, why don’t you
give the French ambassador a call. He’ll fill you in.”
If you do call the French ambassador, chances are he will say something
to the effect of,
“Monsieur, monsieur, le boycott d'O'Reilly est fantastique!”
You see, O’Reilly called for a boycott in 2003 in response to France’s
lack of support for the
U.S. military action in Iraq. Let’s take a look at the results:
2002: Pre-Factor Boycott
French exports to the U.S. total $28.2 billion.
2003: Factor Boycott Begins
French exports to the U.S. increase a billion dollars to $29.2 billion.
2004: Factor Boycott Year 2
French exports to the U.S. increase more than $2 billion to $31.6 billion.
2005: Factor Boycott Year 3
French exports to the U.S. again increase more than $2 billion to $33.8
billion.
Wow, from $28.2 billion to $33.8 billion. So, according to the Foreign
Trade Division of the U.S.
Census Bureau, the Factor boycott of France has enabled France to
increase its exports to the
U.S. by $5.6 billion. So foreign powers be warned: You better think long
and hard before getting
on the wrong side of one Mr. William J. O’Reilly Jr., or you’ll be faced
with an onslaught of
economic growth the likes of which you’ve never imagined. Suck on that,
Mexico.
But for the sake of argument, let’s say we did get into a pissing match
with our neighbor to the
south. As we pointed out when O’Reilly threatened Canada with a boycott,
we’re a country
that’s rather dependent on foreign oil. What O’Reilly doesn’t appear to
know, however, is that
we import more crude oil from Mexico than from Saudi Arabia. In fact,
Mexico and Canada are
the largest exporters of oil to the U.S.
So before O’Reilly starts threatening to pull out the aces in our little
house-of-cards economy,
he might want to have that crack staff do a 30-second Google search. We
need Mexico more
than we need Saudi Arabia. So let’s not ***** ‘em off too much, El
Presidente O’Reilly.
Until then, we’re anxious to see this O’Reilly boycott fail, as have all
the others that came
before it. He really is the craziest man on television.

Stem cells a vote breaker for some Americans
CINCINNATI, July 18 (Reuters) - Debi Martin is a Christian, a
Republican and opposes abortion but she is ready to vote against the
party in November if President George W. Bush and congressional
Republicans limit stem cell research.
"This is a vote breaker for me," said the Cincinnati mother. "I tell
people I'm becoming a Republi-crat at this point -- because there are
just things wrong in the Republican Party where people's voices are
not being heard anymore."
The passage on Tuesday of a Senate bill to fund embryonic stem cell
research -- and a presidential veto expected on Wednesday killing the
legislation -- hits very close to home for Martin. Her 9-year-old
daughter, Jessi, has diabetes and they both hope stem cell research
can some day find a cure.
Martin also feels strongly about the use of embryonic stem cells for
research because Jessi was conceived by in vitro fertilization -- and
Martin and her husband decided years ago to discard nine unused
embryos because she could not have another child.
"I would give anything if I could have had those nine cells to give to
have a cure for my baby now," she said. "And I think the worst sin of
all, and I am a very religious person, I am pro-life, is to look a
miracle from God in the face and throw it away."
There are few issues in America quite as emotional as this one, which
would expand federal funding for research with unused human embryos
that doctors say could lead to breakthroughs against diabetes,
Parkinson's disease and spinal cord injuries.
The debate has set Republicans like Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist,
a physician, against Bush, who has threatened to use his veto power
for the first time to reject the legislation.
The division among Republicans could have political fallout. Polls
show most Americans support the research and Democrats are hoping a
voter backlash against Republicans who oppose it will win them enough
votes to seize control of Congress at the November mid-term election.
POLITICAL LAND MINE
When Bush restricted the use of federal funds for stem cell studies in
2001, several states moved ahead with their own laws to either limit
or advance research.
Governors from Delaware, Illinois, Iowa, Michigan, New Jersey, New
Mexico, Oregon and Wisconsin sent a letter to senators on Tuesday
urging them to support the bill.
The topic is especially hot in Missouri, where Republican Gov. Matt
Blunt is backing a November ballot initiative for a constitutional
amendment to protect stem cell research.
But Republican Sen. Jim Talent, who won his seat in 2002 by just one
percentage point, opposes expanded research and could lose his seat
over the issue in November amid heavy campaigning by his Democratic
opponent in favor of stem cell studies.
http://bushisamoron2.notlong.com/
Once again, the President is out of touch with the majority of
Americans -- and once again he demonstrates that he doesn't care. That
familiar arrogance will cost his party dearly in November. The coming
elections will demonstrate how far the Republican Party has strayed
from mainstream conservative issues at the expense of serving the
Religious Right. Meanwhile Democrats are eagerly anticipating the
Bush Administration's next fatal political mistake.
Way to go Bush. You just cost your party votes in November. <thumbs up>
Ya know what... I agree.
So Clay, does it bother you that Bush makes decisions like these that
actually hurt people, based on his indebtedness to the fanatics on the far
right?
Bother me? Not in the least. I think this was the wrong bill to be
the first to veto. I think that Conservatives will have a hard time
come November. The only thing I can do is hope (and yes, pray) that we
(Conservatives) hold onto the majority in both federal chambers.

Man, if there were any TRUE conservatives left, I would
happily join them.
What are called "conservative" nowadays are a bunch of
***** fascists, trying to suppress all dissent against their

well, well, well, Easily molded Clay shows his ignorance once more.
What are your talking points today? I'm sure your brain rush gave them
to you, that is how you can speak and think, you never had a thought of
your own in your whole life. 70% of thinking americans want stem cell
research, 30% of non thinking rush listeners don't rush tells them they
don't so they don't, they did no research of their own, they just
listen to that idiot, like an easily molded piece of Clay.

Ya know what... I agree.
So Clay, does it bother you that Bush makes decisions like these that
actually hurt people, based on his indebtedness to the fanatics on the far
right?
Bother me? Not in the least. I think this was the wrong bill to be
the first to veto. I think that Conservatives will have a hard time
come November. The only thing I can do is hope (and yes, pray) that we
(Conservatives) hold onto the majority in both federal chambers.
You don't sound like Clay, the too fucking stupid clown.
I was in such a good mood, defect. Then you decided to come into this
thread wtih your mental and physical defects.
Ewwwwwww.
Too fucking funny.

well, well, well, Easily molded Clay shows his ignorance once more.
What are your talking points today? I'm sure your brain rush gave them
to you, that is how you can speak and think, you never had a thought of
your own in your whole life. 70% of thinking americans want stem cell
research, 30% of non thinking rush listeners don't rush tells them they
don't so they don't, they did no research of their own, they just
listen to that idiot, like an easily molded piece of Clay.
KOO-KOO, KOO-KOO, KOO-KOO

Once again, the President is out of touch with the majority of

familiar arrogance will cost his party dearly in November. The coming
elections will demonstrate how far the Republican Party has strayed
from mainstream conservative issues at the expense of serving the
Religious Right. Meanwhile Democrats are eagerly anticipating the
Bush Administration's next fatal political mistake.

So you agree that he cost Republicans votes. What are you going to do
about it? Are you saluting whatever blithering ***** the Republican
party runs up the flag pole, or are you going to vote with that thing
between your ears? (No, not your bald spot.)

Stem cells a vote breaker for some Americans
CINCINNATI, July 18 (Reuters) - Debi Martin is a Christian, a
Republican and opposes abortion but she is ready to vote against the
party in November if President George W. Bush and congressional
Republicans limit stem cell research.
"This is a vote breaker for me," said the Cincinnati mother. "I tell
people I'm becoming a Republi-crat at this point -- because there are
just things wrong in the Republican Party where people's voices are
not being heard anymore."
And they should be able to get a plentiful supply from Iraq and Afghanistan --
after all, they aren't human, just there to be killed by Americans.
