Re:Re: Stem Cells

Didn't know we were playing the adjective game already?

Lance, I understand the ethics of embryonic stem cell research. All of which are fine points. My beef with the entire concept of this bill is more libertarian than socially conservative.

I believe that it is not the job of the federal government's job to fund science. Plain and simple. Call me crazy, but my philosophy on the federal government goes something like this.

• Have the best military on God's Earth
• Pave my roads
  
• Teach the children facts, not feelings or other NEA crap
  
• Set the rules for commerce - then get the hell out of the way.

Paying scientists to play Frankenstein isn't on that list.
