This is what is known as being a "compassionate conservative," which is just code for saying have your cake and eat it too.
Bush's "reasoning"
Life is sacred
Life begins at conception
Destroying a life to save lives is wrong
Embryonic Stem Cell research is promising
Embryonic Stem cell harvesting destroys life
Some lives have been destroyed already
Destroying those lives was wrong
Stem Cell Lines were derived from those lives
We can't bring back those lives
So it's ok to use those stem cell lines
If you are against destroying embryos, you should be against using these stem cells. If you support this research, you should support developing new stem cell lines.
I think this will be a successful political move on Bush's part, but it demonstrates that he is just as political as Clinton was(something Bush criticized).
For the record, I support stem cell research, using stem cells from embryos that are a by-product of fertility therapies. I think it is abhorrent to create embryos solely for stem cell research.
Sony manufactures consumer CD burners, and now they are selling a product that their burners can't copy! Doesn't this seem very wrong? It's like if the people who sold stun guns to people who wanted to protect themselves also sold countermeasures to criminals!
Copyrights have superseded human rights in U.S. policy for some time now. China nearly lost most favored nation status over its abuse of copyrights a few years ago, but its abuse of human rights still goes unpunished.
So you shouldn't really care what they say, unless you live in New Jersey. Constitutional arguments could also refer to the New Jersey constitution, which may(I'm not from Jersey) protect anonymous speech.
I'm not sure that's irony, most people refer to that as improvement!

It's called the Gentleman's C. He was never a successful oilman, he was part owner of the Rangers, and traded Sammy Sosa. The governor of Texas has no power, the real power is held by the Lieutenant Governor. I'm not sure you could call the way he became president being elected(maybe "selected" by the Supreme Court).
Certainly it would be possible to put a computer on the car which recorded each time the car went over a certain speed. This would be far more accurate than relying on GPS. Anyway, the company should also have to demonstrate that the posted speed was exceeded. (Yeah I was going 85, that was the speed limit!) Of course this raises the question, since you are responsible for ALL damage that your rental car sustains, why would they care how fast you were going(unless you were red-lining it(which you could do at 40 mph)) Sounds like someone is trying to suck all of the fun out of driving!
But besides that you need to consider what you are saying. The Christian God is all-knowing, an all-powerful. Do you think God is threatened by some showman selling immortality? You much not have much faith, or maybe you're the Antichrist sent to end the world! God spoke to Icarus??? Why would God talk to a Pagan!
I'm sure I'd make a bundle! He supports population control, yet he sells a device that makes you immortal? Unless his idea of immortality is akin to the "There can be only one" theory advanced in the movie/series Highlander, he needs to get off the pipe.
The 15" LCD, which would be comparable to a 17" CRT costs $100 more than Apple's 17" CRT. Since OSX is now shipping with all new Macs($129), consumers are actually saving money($29) on an all apple solution purchased today versus yesterday. Of course, no one has to buy an LCD if they don't want to.
Of course not, this case will obviously go all the way to the supreme court, unless the Supreme Court decides not to act. If 2600 wins, MPAA will certainly appeal!

They'll probably cost an arm and a leg.

Yes, he is that dumb!
You obviusly haven't heard his version of "Burning down the house"
It's all Greek to me
...And publishers have paid Amazon for years for prominent attention of new books (they also pay book chains for placement of new books up front.)...

It seems like it would be a lot easier/ more accurate to track your speed with an onboard computer.
The headline makes it sound like the error was intentional, this is clearly in the wrong topic as well, should have been bug!
George Senior was president, I don't remember who was AG, but I do know it wasn't Reno(who was appointed in 1993).
Just replying to undo incorrect moderation

Shameful to give him this venue BTW.
The link was the username...my bad!
Why bother, no one really has the time or inclination to monitor what you might say anyway.
At least until someone cuts off your head!
