Jerry Falwell Decries Any Stem Cell Research As Unethical

With initial reports that stem cells can be obtained without the need to harvest unwanted embryos, the Reverend Jerry Falwell claims that even this is unethical.

But here's the deal. I forget when but sometime in the last year or so Falwell was very, very ill. There was even some speculation he would die. But medical research pulled through and gave this hateful, rotten, miserable piece of pork a second chance.

Likewise, a GOP politician from California, one of the far right wingers, recently lost his fight with cancer or some other fatal illness after being kept alive for several more years because of medical research and yes, stem cell treatments. The gasbag didn't want YOU to benefit from stem cells, but he was very, very happy to accept the treatment for himself.

This nauseating, hateful double standard is at the heart of just about everything the far right does: laws are for you but not for me, I should be rich but you should not, I should have this treatment but you should not.
