Well this was totally expected - after his meeting with Pope Benedict - now I wonder what his stand is on some thorny issues which of couse conflict with the Catholic Church and which he was in favour of when he was Prime Minister.
Good point. If you hear anything keep us posted.
Peace and Love,

Well I know that Blair was for stem cell research and really if you are using the placenta or the umbilical cord after delivery so what if it prevents some horrific health problem or fixes it. I really do not see what is so wrong with trying to make medical strides. Bush of course is against stem cell research. If this research can fix the heart or grow a new healthy kidney or bladder or liver for those waiting for transplants can this be such a bad thing.
Today is the anniversary of the massacre at Wounded Knee, which took place in the army camp in South Dakota, 1891. The band of Indians had been fleeing through the cold when they were ordered into Wounded Knee. The next morning federal soldiers began confiscating their weapons, and a scuffle broke out between a soldier and an Indian warrior. The federal soldiers opened fire, killing 290 men, women, and children. The gunfire was so haphazard that the soldiers killed more than 25 of their own men in the crossfire. Even though it wasn't really a battle, the massacre at Wounded Knee is considered the final battle of the Indian Wars, which had lasted 350 years.
