Obama & Stem Cell Research

It is so great to finally have a President that isn’t so anti-science in office. It was great to hear Obama lift the ban on stem cell research. Why anyone would want to ban any kind of research boggles my mind. There is so much we don’t know yet. Scientists are discovering new stuff everyday. Why would you want to prevent that? Knowledge and learning can never be a bad thing.

Obama gave a great speech before signing the executive order to lift the ban. He showed his commitment to science, which is a really cool thing. You can see a video of it here. It also personally cool seeing a fellow lefty as President, but I still find it weird using all the different pens.
