Remember when Edwards said that, if Kerry was elected, people like George Reeves would get out of that chair and walk again? I’m betting that he’s cursing this woman now.

No! You can’t walk now! You have to wait until after Bush is gone!

It’s interesting that I’ve heard people condemning Bush over this (“See? She’s walking again! Bush wants to ban the research that did this!”) Unfortunately for those people, they’ve missed the distinction that Bush wants to avoid funding (not ban) the research using stem cells that are obtained by killing viable babies. This woman, on the other hand, was healed using umbilical stem cells.

So, we’ve had some success with adult stem cells, and now umbilical ones. We’ve had no success thus far, as I understand it, with embryonic stem cells. Since Bush doesn’t want to fund the one that’s failed so far, he’s evil… huh?
