Bush Vetoes Stem Cell Bill
Andy Battaglia:
Sajid,
It has to be more than half the planet. More like 90%.

This is a joke and I am happy to delete it if it offends anyone
The Code:
After numerous rounds of "We don't even know if Osama is still alive," Osama himself decided to send George Bush a letter in his own handwriting to let him know he was still in the game.
President Bush opened the letter and it appeared to contain a single line of coded message:
370H-SSV-0773H.
Bush was baffled, so he e-mailed it to Condoleezza Rice. Condi and her aides had not a clue either, so they sent it to the FBI. No one could solve it at the FBI so it sent to the CIA, then to NASA. Eventually they asked Britain's MI-6 for help. Within a minute MI-6 cabled the White House with this reply: "Tell the President he's holding the message upside down."

Morals or political expediency?

--- Quote ---WASHINGTON - A Colorado congresswoman said Saturday that
President Bush was motivated by "cold, calculated, cynical political gain" when he vetoed a bill that would expand federal funding for embryonic stem cell research."The president's veto had nothing to do with morals," Rep. Diana DeGette, D-Colo., said in the Democrats' weekly radio address, but instead "the kind of politics that snuffs out the candle of hope and that condemns the disabled and the sick."...DeGette said the embryos used would not be those that would have been for in-vitro fertilization but those that would be considered medical waste. "It makes more sense to allow them to be donated to give life and health to people in need," she said.

Tens of thousands of embryos are discarded annualy. These could instead be used for research into cures for a multitude of illnesses and genetic disorders. How is tossing them in the trash preferrable, Mr Bush?
