John Edwards in Newton, Iowa on Kerry's Stem Cell Vision: "We will stop juvenile diabetes, Parkinson's, Alzheimer's and other debilitating diseases... When John Kerry is president, people like Christopher Reeve are going to get up out of that wheelchair and walk again."
Well, Lordy, Lordy!! It's an absolute miracle! Praise the Lord...er...John Kerry!! Our sufferings are over! John Kerry is the Light. Not only will he cure our social ills & economic woes in four years & garner us world wide respect, but he now has the power to heal our dreaded aliments. Bless you, John, bless you. You want to get up out of the wheelchair & walk again? You want your Parkinson's gone or your Alzheimer's gone? Prayer is not the answer. Vote for Kerry & walk!
What Edwards said is sickening. Kerry & Edwards will say or do anything to get votes. They have hit a new low. Is this a campaign promise, that the cripple shall walk again? This is pure pandering from a duo of dope demagogues. Just maybe some will believe Edwards & some will be given the false hope that they will walk again or be cured if only Kerry is elected. This is right out of the revivalist tent meetings of long ago, only this time it is Preacher John who is spewing forth the claims for a cure. They have no shame. They are just two pathetic politicians using the stem cell research issue in an ignoble way so that they can get elected, while their flock remain saddled to wheelchairs & still suffering the likes of Parkinson's, long forgotten by the faith healers who took their money & ran.
Memo to John Edwards - knock off the demagoguery.
