It is my understanding that what these guidelines do is send our tax dollars to experiment on stem cells taken from human embryos that supposedly are "leftover" from in vitro fertilization. Instead of promoting the adoption of these human embryos, these draft guidelines would require their death. Why would our government allow the destruction of embryos that could be donated for adoption to couples that are unable to conceive naturally and cannot afford expensive alternatives? Our government should be helping it's citizens, not destroying life!
