OK, stem cell research has REALLY went too far this time.

Scientists Create Human Sperm from Stem Cells - TIME

Researchers at Newcastle University in England report they have coaxed the first human sperm cells from embryonic stem cells, in a remarkable demonstration of how quickly the field of stem-cell science is moving.

Whoa, wait a minute. Scientist have actually created a **** sperm cell?

Now what other purpose would you want to do that, if not for Eugenics?

I have no problem with stem cell research. If it can lead to never before heard of feats like making someone with a spine injury able to walk, or give someone sight and hearing back, that would rock. But creating sperm? I'm sure the creation of a baby would not be too far behind. That delves a little too close into the realm of playing ***. Not that doing so is a BAD thing IMHO. But I don't think it is something that would ever be accepted in society.

It has a potential to cure a lot of things. I'm for it. I know I know I'm pro life.

Hmmmm......I could have a few drones I suppose, just for slave labor and the occasional pickle tickle. I kill my own spiders.

July 19th, 2006 - President Bush vetoed the first bill of his presidency. Was it a massive, over inflated spending bill that he should have vetoed on numerous occasion? Was it one of Congress' yearly budgets of late that have featured runaway spending? A new program we don't need? Nope, it was all over stem cell research. Some veto. Yawn.

This is a controversy that has been raging for years and it won't be settled here. On the one side, you have the people who believe embryonic stem cell research is the key to curing multiple diseases and that the federal government should pay for that research. On the other side, you have the anti-abortion crowd. They believe using embryos for embryonic stem cell research would be taking a human life. That's the argument and the crowd Bush has aligned with.

But how about a third position. Embryonic stem cell research is all fine and dandy and should be pursued, but by the private sector. It should not be part of the role of the federal government to conduct medical research. (Go on ask me why! I'm getting a little long winded, but I can tell you that it has to do with limited government. Yawn? Ohh... wait there's more!)

If there indeed is a cure for Alzheimer's or diabetes or any of the other diseases out there, let the private sector invest the money. Imagine how many billions of dollars such a cure would be worth!

Still, it's pretty sad that this was the best President Bush could do for his first veto. He could have vetoed some of the ridiculous budgets of the past, the prescription drug program, the McCain Feingold campaign finance reform debacle, or other fiscal disasters.

Too bad about his weak veto pen!

Good points, RO. I agree.

Now quit yawning! You're making me start..... yawn .

"Yawn" is a strange word, btw. As is "thaw".
