Apologies if this has been posted already, but I saw this headline and started laughing:
Nancy Reagan Calls for Stem Cell Research
It gets better:
BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. (Reuters) - Former First Lady Nancy Reagan made an impassioned call for taking controversial stem cell research out of the political arena, saying it could help cure illnesses like Alzheimer's which so sorely afflicts her husband.
With the Bush administration and anti-abortion groups strongly opposing stem cell research, Mrs. Reagan at a celebrity-packed dinner in Beverly Hills on Saturday night lent a powerful conservative Republican voice to the debate.
Nancy seems to have a knack recently for doing exactly what the St. Ronald Society of Apocalyptic Sycophants doesn't want her to do, from nixing the idea of Reagan University to blocking the miniseries. Now this. Follow the link to read about actors and actresses reading letters from other former Presidents who support stem-cell research. Must be a bad time to be a wingnut these days, eh? Do we need to put Ollie North and Annie Coulter on a suicide watch?
