It is no surprise that Bush is vetoing the latest stem cell research bill. He is playing to what little base he has left, and he and the GOP cannot afford to alienate their last vestiges of support. The problem is in how he states his opposition. According to a spokesperson the President supports stem cell research “as long as it does not involve creating, harming or destroying embryos”. He objects to forcing the American Taxpayer to support the destruction of life.
Of course all that goes out the window once a baby is born. Cut child welfare, no problem. Support using taxpayers money to kill Iraqi’s, no problem. Using taxpayer money to execute human beings with capital punishment, no problem.
Bush is really good at talking from both sides of his mouth, now if he would just use both halves of his brain we might not be in such a mess. He wants everything his way, regardless of who it hurts, kills or impoverishes. He is a spoiled brat who has bumbled his way into the White House and now he throws tantrums when he can’t do anything he wants.
Maybe it’s time he got a time out? Like for the rest of his presidency in the form of impeachment!
