This especially infuriates me:

"This bill would support the taking of innocent human life in the hope of finding medical benefits for others," Bush said...

Yes, idiot...Potentially Life saving, life enhancing benefits...Like for those soilders returning paralyzed from the war you started in Iraq..THEY could benefit...or for an unending number of diseases and conditions - many of which also affect CHILDREN.
It just kills me that he uses the excuse/reasoning that using the embryos is the taking of innocent human life when he started a war that has taken something like 2000 American lives now, and killed countless people in Iraq.

I do not ignore the big picture that is the debate of "What is the definition of human life/when is it that a human life begins"....this is something that I believe we studied AND debated in one of my college courses. Personally, I feel that it is better to save and enhance many many many lives through researching the possibilities that stem cells provide, rather than letting the frozen embryo's waste away. If he is so concerned by the miniscule fraction of people who have 'adopted' embryo's, then there can be ones set aside for that - but they aren't going to adopt ALL the embryo's. Besides - I feel there are REAL PEOPLE to adopt, children who have been BIRTHED already. That would be more important in my book then people satisfying their own selfish needs and desires to go through pregnancy.

He is an idiot. Anyone who has an entire book of stupid comments they have made, in speeches - let alone in PUBLIC - should not be the ruler of what is considered (used to be considered?) the most powerful nation in the world.

(For the record - I do disagree with 'fetal farming' - that just sounds gross and immoral and to me seems like it could be compared to inbreeding of dogs...when you mess with that you end up getting defective items)
