Bush Hypocrisy: Stem Cells vs Death Penalty

Slate has an article with a side-by-side comparison of Bush’s statements on stem cells versus his statements on the death penalty. The contradiction is impressive. Here’s an example:

versus

“The president supports the death penalty for those people who commit violent, heinous crimes, because he believes that it saves lives.”
