Adult Fetus Opposes Stem Cell Bill
Tom DeLay? Very unhappy about the House's bill to expand funding for embryonic stem cell research: "An embryo is a person, a distinct internally directed, self-integrating human organism." So embryos are a lot like liberal Marin housewives, circa 1974? Neat. Not that this is actually about embryos: "The choice to protect a human embryo from federally funded destruction is not, ultimately, about the human embryo. It is about us, and our rejection of the treacherous notion that while all human lives are sacred, some are more sacred than others." At this point, hundreds of young former embryos in Iraq heartily applauded, but since many of them have no hands, they barely made a sound.— GREG BEATO
