Today's headline indicates Obama's intention to fund controversial stem-cell research.
Why is this an outrage? Because it takes tax-payer money away from people who have genuine conscientious and moral objections to such research.
What is important to note here is that Pres. Bush's executive orders and vetoes on this issue never prevented a single bit of research on stem cells. All he did was keep federal and tax payer dollars from funding it. Any institution interested in doing stem cell research could do so without any interference from the federal government.
I'm not asking Pres.-elect Obama to stop stem cell research--although this would be a good idea. I'm simply asking him not to take money from me to fund others' research. Isn't this fair thing to ask of him?
Why would any president or legislator force me to fund something which I think involves the destruction of human life?
Radical Obama. That's what we have for our new president.
