More Shameless Hype from ESCR Booster Politician
Some politicians have no shame, and methinks we have to now include Senator Frank R. Lautenberg, D-N.J., to that list. Reacting to a story about high levels of autism in NJ, the good Senator said. "This report only strengthens my resolve to get federal funding for embryonic stem cell research, which scientists believe could someday help find a cure or treatment for autism."
We don't even know what causes autism. To claim that ESCRs will provide a cure is utterly irresponsible.

This annoys me - two of my nephews are autistic. Claiming that you can cure something which looks like a wiring difference in the brian is idiotic. You can't "cure" the way a brain processes information.
And the media don't call these bozos to account.
