Which would you rath…
Which would you rather experiment on to advance medical science; monkeys or babies? First note that many liberals want to push ahead with using embryonic stem cells in research, but also ally with PETA to keep animals from being used in research. Now, that’s a generalization to be sure, but it’s generally true. The Democrats put Ron Reagan on the stand to defend embryonic stem cell research, but I wonder what their position is on this:

A worldwide shortage of laboratory apes and monkeys could be holding back research into new drug treatments and genetics, it has been claimed.

The problem, highlighted in the first global audit of primate studies, is said to threaten advances aimed at tackling HIV and neurological diseases.

So if you believe that George W. Bush is personally holding back a cure for Parkinson’s disease, do you also believe that PETA is keeping the world from a cure for AIDS?

Hmmm?
