When Senator Joe Biden launched his attack today implying that those who are against stem cell research are against disabled children, I don't think he understood the fire he would meet.  What an outrageous comment to make off the cuff.

SBA List President, Marjorie Dannenfelser had this to say:

“Today Senator Biden outrageously implied that Americans who refuse to sacrifice innocent human life in the name of unproven, desperate attempts to cure our nation’s ills through embryo-destructive research somehow don’t really care about children.  I am a mother of five children, one with a mental disability.  The fact that Joe Biden questioned the compassion of parents like me – Governor Sarah Palin, among them – makes me sputter in disbelief.

 

Compassion can never be built upon callous disregard for human life."
