Science is King

It should surprise no one that Obama will lift the limits on embryonic stem-cell research, continuing his assault on protection for the unborn. Obama will, according to USA Today, "Restore scientific integrity" to white house decision making. Good job Obama. This erdudite sentiment was reflected by other scientists:

"Public policy must be guided by sound scientific advice." -Nobel Prize winner Harold Varmus

"What really is important is that ideology will not drive science." -Bioethicist Jonathan Moreno

"Hallelujah, this marks the end of a long and repressive chapter in scientific history," said stem cell researcher Robert Lanza of Advanced Cell Technology in Worcester, Mass. "It's the stem-cell Emancipation Proclamation."

I'm assuming Nazi scientists would have rejoiced with them.
