From Wesley J. Smith's Blog. Arlen Spector preys on the hopes and fears of American sufferers while practicing political science. Something's wrong with your case when you make these kinds of comments. Here's the text from Smith's blog.
"Senator Arlen Specter has managed to top Edwards in sheer hyperbole and advocacy spin. At a press conference today, he said: "It is scandalous that eight years have passed since we have known about stem cell research and the potential to conquer all known maladies, and federal funds have not been available for the research."
"All known maladies? Every single one? The common cold? Herpes? Tooth decay?
"And as for "no federal funds" being available to fund ESCR: In 2005 the Feds put out about $50 million for human ESCR, using the Bush approved lines. But I guess to a senator, that is the same as no money at all.
"Two whoppers in one sentence: Perhaps a new record."
