Mike Huckabee Applauds Presidential Veto of Federally-Funded Embryonic Stem Cell Research Legislation

Little Rock , Ark – Former Gov. Mike Huckabee (AR) said Wednesday that he applauds a veto by President George W. Bush of legislation to loosen restrictions on federally-funded embryonic stem cell research.

“Without the President’s veto, this controversial legislation, which is wrong on moral grounds and based on inconclusive scientific research, would have become law. I commend the President for his strong stand in support of life,” said Huckabee.

Huckabee said he also supports an executive order by President Bush to direct the Health and Human Services Department to promote additional research into cells that might regenerate into different types of cells that could potentially be used to battle human disease.

“Vital scientific research can and is being conducted without the destruction of life,” said Huckabee.

I wish I could get the Scarborough video working right. Right before the interview, Scarborough went on a tirade against Bush for this, talking about his son who has diabetes.

He ask's Huckabee about it and Huckabee takes him on full speed and told him off with detailed knowledge of the legislation.

We know he can tame the angry conservative. The question I want to find out is if he can tame the angry liberal.

If Hillary has to play nice, she's going to come off as the most unauthentic candidate since Dukakis!
