She seems to think embryonic stem cells will one day lower the number of people who need organ donations. Unable to find any examples of how embryonic stem cells are ever going to be used to create replacement organs, she turns to adult stem cells for a success story…
Recently, an article in British medical journal The Lancet announced that a team of international doctors performed a pioneering and successful windpipe transplant on a young Colombian woman. A donated trachea was re-engineered using the woman’s own stem cells – extracted from her bone marrow – thus eliminating the need for immuno-suppressant drugs.
This biological and transformative structure renewed hopes that manufactured organs might revolutionize the concept of traditional transplantation. Now that stem cell research will be better funded, perhaps science can succeed where human generosity has failed. Perhaps no one else will face a preventable death.
It’s really quite breathtaking to realize how little proponents of ESCR know about the research they are so fervent to support.
It would be nice if reporters took a few minutes to familiarize themselves before writing stories.
Jill Stanek is a nurse turned speaker, columnist and blogger, a national figure in the effort to protect both preborn and postborn innocent human life.
The Catholic News Agency also reports Barry wants to meet Pope Benedict when he is in Italy in July. I am speechless at the audacity. Also speechless that everyone he has wanted to appoint is pro abort. Has he no respect whatsoever for the Catholic Church and their belief on life?
Journalists with an agenda aren’t interested in reporting facts. They want to shape opinion. They and their readers are so lacking in discernment that they don’t even see the fallacies they write and read.

surely you jest!
Obama’s too busy sucking up to the Muslim world. I’m sure many American’s are very surprised to learn that the Muslim faith has contributed significantly to American history! Cuz that’s what the Commander in Chief has claimed! And this to his wonderful claim that America is not a Christian nation!
So it’s not surprising that Obama is trying very hard to impress upon the Vatican that HE will be THE one picking the ambassador. My guess is that the post will remain unfilled. Until the Vatican gives in (or Hell freezes over). Guess it’s gonna get cold in Hell.
Regarding ignorance on ESC, former President Clinton comes off the worst. In two youtube videos, one a speech before a group in Michigan and the other a CNN interview, Clinton repeatedly said “embryos that have not been fertilized”. He made numerous references to “unfertilized embryos” that would be used, and no one should have a problem with that. Then he claims to have studied this for years. However he lacks basic grade seven knowledge that an embryo is an embryo precisely because it has been fertilized.
And no one called him on this?
In the second news article in the Omaha World-Harold on the increase of abortions, did you see abortionist LeRoy Carhart was quoted? The LeRoy Carhart whose own clinic administrator reported him to the medical board for bizarre and dangerous behavior, who runs an abortion clinic in a delapidated building which shares a vehicle maintainance garage, the same LeRoy Carhart preforming abortions after the clinic fire in dangerous conditions, without an city occupancy permit and using a portable generator (in the back of a trashy pick-up truck) connected to the clinic by an extention cord!

Mods, I have a post in moderation for links, in regards to abortionist LeRoy Carhart in one of the above mentioned articles.
Rachael and Mods,
I’m not seeing the comment in the spam folder or the pending comments. Can you either post it again, Rachael, or maybe another mod could check on this to see if they can find it?
Bobby, I’m checking it right now…I don’t seem to see it either. Wonder if it got lost in cyberspace? Rachael, would it be too much of an inconvenience to post it again? I’m going to continue looking.
Never mind… I found it! :)
Oh good! Where was it??
Bobby, it was WAYYY down in the Spam folder. I think she had accidentally posted as Anonymous so Moveable Type must have automatically spammed her post because it had links in it.
Huh, that’s weird… I thought the spam was in order of newest spam to oldest spam, so I didn’t browse down at all. Good to know :)
Oh, I post anonymously when I’m on a public computer or a friends computer so it doesn’t save my info in the form
But I’ll try to remember that when I post anonymously, my posts with links will probably go into the spam folder.
