On Friday it was leaked by administration officials that President Obama will soon sign an executive order to reverse the ban on federal funding of embryonic stem cell research.
Response: This issue has become a political football. Pro-life supporters oppose embryonic stem cell research because embryos are destroyed and killed in the process. Also, nearly all of the real progress and breakthroughs in stem cell research have come through the use of adult stems cells which do not require the destruction of live embryos.
Meanwhile, those who support abortion rights are heavily invested in embryonic research as an issue and are demanding that the Bush executive order be overturned.
The Bush order does not restrict private embryonic research, only federally funded programs. California is already spending millions on these programs to no avail or apparent progress.
If some of these rich fat-cat liberals and Hollywood types want it so much, why don’t they drop a dime and support it? Why force millions of taxpayers who oppose the killing of embryos to contribute their hard earned tax money to support this abomination?
UPDATE: President Obama signed the executive order today, Monday March 9, 2009 *Top

As we age, the number and quality of stem cells that circulate in our body gradually decrease, leaving our body more susceptible to injury and other age-related health challenges. StemTech Health Science’s Stem Enhance is the alternative to the controversial stem cells we hear about in the news. Patented Product StemEnhance supports the natural release of stem cells to promote optimal healing and stem cell physiology.
Officials at StemTech Health Sciences were aiming for Stem Enhance sales of $100,000 in the first month. Which was a hearty goal in itself. Imagine their astonishment when the 1st month’s sales totaled over $1,000,000 and it just keeps rising.http://www.phyl247.biz office 970-985-4076
