The American College of Pediatrics calls for support of adult stem cell research and an end to embryonic stem cell research. This is my favorite quote from the news release from a fellow from the ACP:

Not only does embryonic research require taking the life of human embryos, it also prolongs needless suffering by delaying the development of more promising adult stem cell treatments and cures

Oh no, she did NOT just say that!! ESC research prolongs suffering? She must be grossly misinformed because I’ve always been told that research on days old embryos is our only hope of relieving needless suffering. Someone needs to get her the latest media story about stem cell research quick so that she can get her facts straight!

Thank you, ACP, for your support for only ethical (not to mention effective) medical science!
