Conservatism Defined: The Chicken, The Egg, The Embryo, and Moral High Ground

"EMOTIONAL BLACKMAIL"

Bush's reasoning for his stem cell research veto is more of the same old rhetoric we've come to expect from religious zealots and far right conservatives that support this ridiculous veto.

I think Harry Moore of the Center for Stem Cell Biology at the University of Sheffield in Britain summed it up best:

"Most embryos produced by a normally fertile women will fail before implantation and not go on to a pregnancy. To call it 'murder' to use embryos donated for research is just emotional blackmail," Moore said in a statement.

That seems to be the most accurate description of what the previously mentioned zealots and conservatives use to ram their morals down the rest of our throats. Thank you Mr. Moore.
