Mr. Bush, you are a nitwit and a jackass

Fund research that has the potential to save millions of lives and drastically increase the quality of life for so many more? Eradicate disease and problems like spinal cord damage, Parkinson's disease, Alzheimers, cancer, diabetes? Make it so that, rather than die as they wait years for a kidney, heart, liver, or other organ transplant, we can grow natural organs?

Doing so would apparently infringe upon the sanctity of life, or something.

I honestly don't have the words to talk about this. It's selfish and idiotic. Why? Because THOSE STEM CELLS ALREADY EXIST! The embryos have already been created, and are extremely literally going to be thrown away! We're not playing god and creating life, we're not creating anything solely for research purposes. In denying funding for this research Bush isn't defending anything beyond an archaic and simple-minded fear of scientific advancement; instead he's effectively mandating that extra embryos created in the course of IVF treatments are nothing more than biological waste to be disposed of.

This is arrogance of the highest level. I personally would love to see Bush go up to my grandmother (a cancer survivor) and tell her that yes, we could probably find ways to alleviate the suffering she went through for future generations, but we're not going to. Then I'd like to see him go up to a number of my friends and relatives who all have diabetes, and say that, yes, we could be doing research that would cure you from this disease that interferes with your life, constantly threatens your health, and cuts your life expectency short, but I don't think that's the right thing to do. Then he can go up to a friend of mine who's suffered from a serious spinal injury and say that, as President, he refuses to support the research that could cure him.

I can't bring myself to truly wish grievous harm on anyone, as everyone has some form of family, people who care about them and would also be hurt. But if I could do so, I really wouldn't hesitate to wish for Bush to, say, fall and break his neck. Let's see where your moral boundries fall then, you sanctimonious dick.
