pill-popping pusher We choose to go to the moon. We choose to go to the moon in this decade and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard, because that goal will serve to organize and measure the best of our energies and skills, because that challenge is one that we are willing to accept, one we are unwilling to postpone, and one which we intend to win, and the others, too. -

Pro-life people have finally declared themselves against The Common Good. The terminally ignorant Patricia Heaton and others have joined together to fight against embryonic stem cell research, using cloning as the basis for their ignorant argument. Cardinal pitcher Jeff Suppan has lent his name and personality to the anti-pro life ad. It furthers the stereotype that athletes are dumb as dirt.
Cloning? (video) Wow, words escape me. As an aside, that he's lending his name in an ad that will run in Missouri during the World Series is equally frustrating. Is there no place in our society where politics won't intrude? It's made worse by the reality that Suppan's argument is just plain stupid.
And if you missed Rush today you missed a beauty. He talked with indignity about there being a "manipulation of medication here." Cut to commercial break. The irony was lost on the limpman. He also showed great pride in slurring Michael J. Fox, going on in a rant that never stopped. But the bottom line is that Republicans against life are simply freaked out because the Michael J. Fox ad is working.

Some of the most pioneering cures and treatments are now right at our fingertips, but because of politics they could remain beyond reach. Every day we wait, more than 3,000 Americans die from diseases that may someday be treatable because of stem-cell research. Instead of facing the facts, this Administration seems prepared to continue arguing that supporting stem cell research gives the American people false hope. Imagine if we’d told researchers studying polio that they were creating false hope. Imagine if we’d told those working to eradicate small pox that they were creating false hope. It’s unthinkable. --

This issue is here because of a Republican cover-up. And those from the Party that preaches moral values that covered this up, have no right to preach moral values any more. --

House Freedom from torture is an inalienable human right. The Convention Against Torture and Other Cruel, Inhuman or Degrading Treatment, ratified by the United States and more than 130 other countries since 1984, forbids governments from deliberately inflicting severe physical or mental pain or suffering on those within their custody or control. Yet torture continues to be practiced around the world by rogue regimes whose cruel methods match their determination to crush the human spirit. Beating, burning, rape, and electric shock are some of the grisly tools such regimes use to terrorize their own citizens. These despicable crimes cannot be tolerated by a world committed to justice.
Bush: The U.S. doesn't torture. Cheney: Oh, yes it does!GOP culture of life:
