Korean Lab Worker Forced to Donate Her Own Eggs
An anonymous reader writes "According to an article in the Wall Street Journal, Dr. Woo Suk Hwang had attained international fame by successfully cloning a human embryo, but he accomplished his feat by pressuring a lab worker into donating her own eggs. Consequently, Gerald Schatten, a cell biologist at the University of Pittsburgh, has severed his ties with Mr. Hwang and cited gross breaches of ethics."
Questionable ethics from somebody working towards human cloning?
Why doesn't this surprise me?

To put things into perspective, a columnist during the past election cycle quoted her child as having said to her 'John Kerry wants to make medicine out of babies.'
Think about it. It's not that far off from the truth, even for those who pooh-pooh the origin of 'little bits of human tissue' as being irrelevant.
And, of course, comments like that have tremendous propaganda value when quoted to polarized subsections of the public.

All I know about Bush is I had a good job when Clinton was president.
It's apparent from your tagline that that is indeed all you know about Bush.
