True, it may be factually accurate that Bush is the first president to provide federal funding for this type of research. I can’t help but suspect, however, that the pool of contenders for the title is relatively small. I’m sure Taft or Lincoln would have enjoyed that kind of street cred and mad props, but when it came to the scientific induction of pluripotent stem cells from adult human fibroblasts, I guess they just couldn’t tear themselves away from getting stuck in bathtubs and freeing slaves (respectively) to log enough hours...

...minutes, just imagine a few John Harvard mascots having a race. It might even shape up to be a fun betting game.Why stop the entertainment there when the Crimson could shower its fans with free food, t-shirts, and other random memorabilia?

...Stem cells generated by this method are ideal not just because they are free of political and moral baggage. They can also be coaxed into becoming any type of tissue, and then be transplanted back into the donor with little risk of rejection. Still, these cells are far from ready for medical use. The viruses used to ferry the genes that manipulate the cells can introduce genetic mutations and cancer. And with myriad ways to reprogram a cell, sorting out the best ones will take time - meaning that stem cells from embryos will remain useful (and controversial) for a while...

Your article was hardly neutral, what with a picture of a crying baby, another showing a banner that read STOP INFANT CIRCUMCISION, and a quote in large boldface type from a member of an anticircumcision group who claims he "always felt something was missing." He should get his head examined, not the body part in question...
