Yeah, it's a Drudge link, so sue me.

In a new stem cell development we see the commies in China (grain of salt warning) claim a breakthrough in stem cells.

For the first time, they were able to produce live mice from stem cells that were coaxed from skin tissue of adult mice and then reprogrammed. And while there were abnormalities and unusual deaths with some of the first generation of mice, one team produced enough normal mice this way to create hundreds of second and third generation mice.

And notice, they were not embryonic stem cells.

I'm philosophically against using embryonic stem cells. Not for religious purposes (obviously, I don't believe), but because I don't like the slippery slope of creating humans to experiment on them. Of course, the commies are using non-embryonic stem cells to create life to experiment on it, but that's one example of why I hate commies. Even as they're doing something good, they have to do evil.

I always check every stem cell article I can find and, while they often try to confuse the issue, I have yet to see any major breakthrough come from embryonic stem cells, it's always different stem cells.
