White House lashes House bill on stem cells

Quote from White House cited in article:
"Whatever one's view of the ethical issues or the state of the research, the future of this field does not require a policy of federal subsidies offensive to the moral principles of millions of Americans."


However, apparently invading a sovereign country for questionable reasons resulting in the deaths of thousands of people is insufficiently offensive.

Oh, wait, I get it -- there aren't enough private parties engaging in war, so "the future of this field" does "require a policy of federal subsidies offensive to the moral principles of millions of Americans."

Of course.
