Funny thing Nader, as you know I just moved out here to middle America.
I was reading up on on senate candidates, and one of them stated they were against abortion, yet for stem cell research.
This had me a bit confused since from what I know about stem cells, they are obtained from an aborted fetus, and the umbilicus.
Stem Cell FAQ
Where do stem cells come from?
Pluripotent stem cells are isolated from human embryos that are a few days old. Cells from these embryos can be used to create pluripotent stem cell "lines" ?cell cultures that can be grown indefinitely in the laboratory. Pluripotent stem cell lines have also been developed from fetal tissue obtained from fetal tissue (older than 8 weeks of development).
