Possible veto?
WASHINGTON - President Bush on Friday said he would veto legislation that would loosen restrictions on embryonic stem cell research and expressed deep concern about human cloning research in South Korea.
"I'm very concerned about cloning," the president said. "I worry about a world in which cloning becomes accepted."
White House deputy press secretary Trent Duffy said the work in South Korea amounted to human cloning for the sole purpose of scientific research. "The president is opposed to that," Duffy said. "That represents exactly what we're opposed to."
South Korean researchers, funded by their government, reported producing human embryos through cloning and then extracting their stem cells. It is a major advancement in the quest to grow patients' own replacement tissue to treat diseases.
The president also threatened a veto of legislation that would clear the way for taxpayer money to be spent on embryonic stem cell research.
A measure by Reps. Mike Castle, R-Del., and Diana DeGette, D-Colo., would lift Bush's 2001 ban on the use of federal dollars for research using any new embryonic stem cell lines.
"I made very clear to Congress that the use of federal money, taxpayer's money, to promote science which destroys life in order to save life _ I'm against that," Bush said. "Therefore, if the bill does that, I would veto it." [Source]
Well if it does reach him and he vetoes it this would be, I believe, his first veto since becoming President.
Known as 
Go Bush Go!
Remember that there was a teeny bit of whining from some in the pro-life camp prior to the last election? That it didn't really matter who was elected, because Bush wouldn't/couldn't do anything to stop abortion? Thank heavens John Kerry isn't president right now. He couldn't sign this bill fast enough!
We have to get the message out if it wears us thin:
ADULT stem cell research = GOOD.
embryonic stem cell research = BAD.
I learned that the body produces its own stem cells from bone marrow, which is part of the immune system. Why not do all that can be done to strengthen the body's immune system instead?
