Sorry Superman and Michael J Fox

Remember the campaign? Poor Michael J Fox promoting embryonic stem cell research and all those liberals blaming Bush. Even saying that Superman would have been able to walk if it wasnt for Bush. Oh well, add it to the list of things he was right about.


From today;s INVESTOR'S BISS. DAILY

Five years after a budget-busting $3 billion was allocated to embryonic stem cell research [through Prop 71], there have been no cures, no therapies and little progress....

Supporters of the California Stem Cell Research and Cures Initiative, passed in 2004, held out hopes of imminent medical miracles that were being held up only by President Bush's policy of not allowing federal funding of embryonic stem cell research (ESCR) beyond existing stem cell lines and which involved the destruction of embryos created for that purpose.

Five years later, ESCR has failed to deliver and backers of Prop 71 are admitting failure. The California Institute for Regenerative Medicine, the state agency created to, as some have put it, restore science to its rightful place, is diverting funds from ESCR to research that has produced actual therapies and treatments: adult stem cell research. It not only has treated real people with real results; it also does not come with the moral baggage ESCR does.

Will Tiger come back as a slug?

We all know about the famous golfer's moral failures this year. One interesting point is that he is a Buddhist and there is no real place for grace and forgiveness in their doctrine. So if Karma is real, Tiger is in trouble.

Fox News Correspondent Brit Hume offered a different and wonderful suggestion:
Maybe Tiger should consider Jesus.

You can see the video here:

If you are too lazy to copy the link, here is the transcript:


"Tiger Woods will recover as a golfer. Whether he can recover as a person I think is a very open question, and it's a tragic situation with him. I think he's lost his family. It's not clear to me that -- whether he'll be able to have a relationship with his children.

But the Tiger Woods that emerges once the news value dies out of this scandal -- the extent to which he can recover seems to me depends on his faith. He's said to be a Buddhist. I don't think that faith offers the kind of forgiveness and redemption that is offered by the Christian faith.

So my message to Tiger would be, "Tiger, turn your faith -- turn to the Christian faith and you can make a total recovery and be a great example to the world."


****UPDATE****

Brit does not back down! Here he is on O'Reilly defending and expanding what he said!
