Stem cell research looks, to experts, like the most promising route to go for a cure to Parkinson's. Experts. Not politicans or actors or pundits or even message board posters. While the rest may bicker, the opinion that matters belongs to the experts, scientists that understand Parkinson's and stem cells better than you or I or Rush. When I say that stem cells can cure something, it's meaningless. When Rush states that Michael J. Fox is this and that, it's meaninless and cruel. At the end of the day, people should learn to listen to doctors and scientists, not assholes on the radio, or people on a forum.

Actually it's not hard for me to grasp at all. From the fifth post in this thread:

I'm against abortion except in the cases of incest, there being no chance that the baby will be born alive, or maybe, MAYBE rape - but the victim better have taken that morning after pill, and if a hospital refused to give her the pill, that hospital should be promptly closed. I belive in sexual accountability, even though most other liberals disagree with me on this issue. There are other sources of stem cells, too. Did you know that the umbilical cord blood is a great source of stem cells? We've know about this for years. And babies are born almost every minute of every day. If we were able to immediatally collect all the umbilical cords (after the infant is done with it), I doubt we'd need another source for stem cells. I even just came up with a motto: Save a life, donate an umbilical cord. Or maybe: Save an embryo, donate an umbilical cord. Whatever. The point is: stem cells isn't really a devisive topic, or at least it shouldn't be. The only reason it's a deviceive issue, of course, is to distract people. It's like gay marriage or "Merry Christmas" versus "Happy Holidays". It's stupid, and I don't know why people walk right into the trap. It's another device to spread the partisan epidemic, and the longer this kinda stuff is allowed to fly, the longer it will take under democrat leadership to get back to normal.
