Cloning

Jan 30, 2009 - IMO, some people on this earth just shouldn't be given large amounts of money. I heard on FOX this morning that a couple in FL paid $155k to have their dearly-beloved, but dead, dog cloned. I find this so alarming! - 32 Comments

Obama Czar: Human Embryos should be cloned

Sep 15, 2009 - CZAR WARSWorldNetDaily ExclusiveObama chief: Embryos are 'just a handful of cells' Argues cloning ban 'silly,' scoffed at those who find it morally repugnant Posted: September 14, 20098:59 pm Eastern By Aaron Klein© 2009 WorldNetDaily   TEL AVIV – There is no moral concern regarding cloning human beings since human embryos, which develop into a baby, are "only a handful of cells," argued President Obama's newly confirmed regulatory czar, Cass Sunstein. "If scientists will be using and cloning embryos only at a very early stage when they are just a handful of cells (say, before they are four days old), there is no good reason for a ban (on cloning)," wrote Sunstein, who was confirmed by the Senate last week as administrator of the White House Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs. "It is silly to think that 'potential' is enough for moral concern. - 9 Comments

Are Men Obsolete?

Sep 21, 2009 - By Robin of Berkeley July 22, 2009 http://www.americanthinker.com/2009/07/are_men_obsolete.html   When I snapped out of my left wing trance last year, I was lost in space.  I had no conservative friends and was clueless about web sites and books.     I had heard something vaguely about Talk Radio.  So I scanned my AM dial and found Michael Savage.  (It took several months, and a chat with a rather bemused new friend, before I even realized there were other hosts as well.)     Being a lifelong liberal, I'd never heard anybody like Savage in my life.  He yelled;  he called people "vermin."  He was unbridled masculinity, not the touchy feeling kind I was used to.  And he totally accepted himself:  his moods, passion, temper.     But what shocked me the most was his saying that men have become "feminized."  I'd never been so offended.  "Well, what's wrong with men being more feminine?"  I shouted back at my radio.  "Is there something wrong with femininity?"   Men being way more in touch with their yin and less with their yang sounded good to me. - 21 Comments
