So in last nights state of the union. Bush stated
This basically implies no animals with human genes. Which forbids research like this.
Or creating embryos? Creating embryos could probably lead to some very interesting research. However, since Bush already wants extracting cells from aborted fetuses... so if we can't get embryos from children that were aborted for whatever reason (they're dead shouldn't some good come out of their death?) and we can't create new sources of embryos... I guess we're supposed to fall behind the rest of the world in medicine as well as technology...
Tonight I ask you to pass legislation to prohibit the most egregious abuses of medical research, human cloning in all its forms, creating or implanting embryos for experiments, creating human-animal hybrids, and buying, selling or patenting human embryos.
