I don't understand why people are against it. The Fetuses are already dead, so it's hardly a life to save life situation, and since most people against it for for the war in Iraq, I don't see how their opinions are relevant.
This is exactly what happens when you let either uneducated officials or the common public decide on issues that they don't understand. The results from Stem Cell research are amazing, in 10 years we could be attatching heads to new bodies, I suppose that scares people! But it could lead us down a road where nothing is truly incurable.
It's damn worth it, in my opinion. This is another example of right-wing nonsense holding back all progress for no logical reason. Some day, we may be able to synthesise Stem Cells, so it will not be a problem. But unless we research them, that will not become a reality.
If anything, it means that the death of those fetuses was not a total waste. It's a good cause.
I wonder what Marvel: Civil War is going to say about all this!
This really is ridiculous and disturbing. Haven't we already learned what happens when you take away too many civil liberties for the sake of paranoia? What's the point of fighting terrorists who want to take away your freedoms when they're managing it enough by themselves? Don't like having competition?

Trying to enforce a violent video game ban on America is a lot like trying to block out Porn in Germany.
