A Culture of Life Update
Apparently, I had it wrong. Via the Washington Post:
“President Bush does not consider stem cell research using human embryos to be murder, the White House said yesterday, reversing its description of his position just days after he vetoed legislation to lift federal funding restrictions on the hotly disputed area of study.
…
‘So the president does not regard this as murder?’ a reporter asked.
‘He would not use that term,’ [White House press secretary] Snow said.
Supporters of the research said the shift reflects White House concerns that it is alienating mainstream Republicans.”
Don’t even get me started on politicking.
