Obama pushing the creation and harvesting of human embryos for research

Some may characterize the guidelines issued last week as narrowly crafted, since NIH will not initially fund research involving human embryos who were created specifically to be used in research. This seeming restraint is part of an incremental strategy intended to desensitize the public to the concept of killing human embryos for research purposes. Even today, NIH officials assert that they can go much further when they choose to. NIH today badly understates the scope of the longstanding law that actually prohibits funding of research that creates or harms human embryos, including all creation of human embryos by cloning.
