Senator Bill Frist, the Senate Majority Leader, has come out in favor of H.R. 810, a bill which would expand the federal funding of embryonic stem cell research even though President Bush has threatened to veto this legislation. The decision has led to an outcry by numerous pro-life individuals, organizations and politicians.
Sen. Rick Santorum, R-Penn., openly criticized Frist on Sunday for dropping his opposition to increased federal funding for embryonic stem cell research.
"I disagree with Senator Frist," NewsMax reports Santorum told ABC's "This Week." "I think that you cannot take a utilitarian approach to human life - and this is an innocent human life. You're destroying this human life for the purpose of research that has questionable value."
