Just so people aren't misled these were fetal neural stem cells and not embryonic. The fetal-derived cells bypasses the ethical arguments. So this can't be used to attack people who are against embryonic stem cells.

However, it seems pretty clear to me that this can be used to debunk Limbaugh.

EDIT:

Man I just read the Fumento article limbaugh sourced. These guys are hacks. Fumento references a article in science he accuses of fraud. At the same time he refuses to name the title, date, page, pretty much anything other than it had "three ESC advocates" as authors. Well he goes on to greatly misrepresent the article in science.

Gee, I wonder why he didn't source the article:

http://www.sciencemag.org/cgi/conten.../313/5786/439b

It's not an advocate of ESC's but a critique of ASC statistics put out by right wing think tanks.

It's sad these guys are key players.
