Stem Cell Research... Duh.

Ok, so today my best friend, Barack Obama, approved federal funding for Stem Cell Research!!
Whoo-Hoo!! Finally, someone with half a brain is allowed to make decisions. The Republicans are dicks. I'm so sorry but please. I have sort of a lot to say about them, obviously, but this whole situation with Rush Limbaugh is ridiculous. They are letting this overblown, nonsense spewer run their party. What? He is wrong on so many levels but even entitled to his opinion he is still a jackass. He is so far right it's unbearable and if the Republicans want to have a shot at the next election, they better cut the cord from that fat noisemaker. I understand his rhetoric though, believe it or not, I can see why he's so scared. I would be too if I opposed sensibility. How scary that must be. In any case, stem cell research, exciting. The moral issues that surround this research is understandable but questionable. The folks that are all about God's wishes seem to think that God wishes we'd be stupid and not try to cure the diseases that are killing us. I think when Ronald Reagan was diagnosed with Alzheimer's it changed some people's minds. At least I hope that's the case. The limits that the Bush administration put on stem cell research were sad and unfair. They made us look stupid and naive (us being America). Now, science can move forward, science can be productive and help mankind. I do, however, understand the pro-lifers who think that embryonic stem cell research is murder, I don't agree with them, but I understand them. As a person with a 50/50 chance of getting Alzheimer's, I need that research, I want that funding, I am thankful for it.
Other thoughts: Rhianna and Chris Brown: leave that stupid fuck. What man is allowed to hit a woman? Martha Stewart's dog got blown up at the kennel: That is so sad and I feel for her. Octomom: Leave that sad, sad woman alone, she has enough to worry about. Some would say she's crazy... ya think? She needs some damn diapers, not death threats. And finally, Jessica Simpson just had on ugly ass pants and a weird belt, she's not fat. Until I write again... I hope we don't fail... I know we won't.
