Pelosi: Stem Cells to Treat Crow’s Feet
(WASHINGTON) — As the creator of Dolly, the world’s first cloned sheep, announced he had abandoned cloning to pursue more promising ways of tapping the potential of stem cells, Democrats in Congress will introduce legislation this week to fund research “to find other good reasons to create and destroy embryos.”
Prof. Ian Wilmut’s choice to turn his back on the highly-inefficient and ethically-controversial “therapeutic cloning,” in favor of procedures that would use a patient’s own cells to spawn stem cells, may send shock waves through the scientific world, but House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said it doesn’t discourage Democrats.
“There’s no reason to give up on the search for miracles,” said Rep. Pelosi, “Now is the time to redouble our efforts to increase the value of human life by spurring a vibrant after-market for embryonic byproducts. America should lead the world in this growth industry.”
Rep. Pelosi, said the world still suffers many problems that need miraculous solutions which may come only through embryonic stem cells.
“Science must now look to embryos,” she said, “to meet the global needs for cheap, reliable sources of energy, protein, and cosmetic enhancement procedures that keep one’s skin looking young and supple.” – Nancy Pelosi — as reported by satirest Scott Ott / ScrappleFace
…and certainly of all people she should know.
