A Republican Plan for Left-Over Embryos

As you certainly already know, Bush used his first veto to block a bill to fund embryonic stem cell research on embryos that are left over from fertility clinics.

Since we can't fund research on these embryos, what should be done with them? If they really are "human life" as Republicans claim, then it is immoral to discard them. That is why the funding that would have been used for stem cell research needs to be immediately diverted to a massive federal program to grow all of these embryos into fully developed human infants. Of course, Republicans don't believe in federal programs to support these infants after they crawl out of their test tubes and inherit original sin, so at this point, they must all be immediately released onto the street. If they starve to death, well, that's just because they are too lazy to go out and get a job. Undoubtedly, many of these infants will turn to crime, and so it will certainly be necessary to lower the minimum age that a person can be executed to 10 months. If these infants can't learn to live in society without committing crimes by the age of 10 months, well, they are just bad eggs, and don't deserve to live.
