I've never been to Yale Law School. I don't even think I could ever have been accepted into such a school if I had tried. But former President Clinton has. Can someone so smart emerge from such a great education being so woefully uninformed about the facts of life?

In a CNN interview, Clinton defended President Obama's decision to lift federal funding restrictions on embryonic stem cell research, speculating on its continued "divisiveness."

"If it's obvious that we're not taking embryos that can – that under any conceivable scenario would be used for a process that would allow them to be fertilized and become little babies ... then I think the American people will support this."

As if that wasn't enough, he went on:

"I don't know that I have any reservations, but I was – he has apparently decided to leave to the relevant professional committees the definition of which frozen embryos are basically going to be discarded, because they're not going to be fertilized. I think the American people believe it's a pro-life decision to use an embryo that's frozen that's never going to be fertilized for embryonic stem cell research. …"

Would someone please tell Mr. Clinton -- and Mr. Obama, too -- that a human embryo is already fertilized! The facts of science are that a human embryo is a human being at the earliest stage of development. The creation of embryonic stem cell lines necessitate the destruction of human life, and that's why it's wrong.

In the interview, Clinton suggested he would oppose stem cell experimentation if there were any chance that an embryo – a fertilized egg with DNA of two parents – could become a human being. How can he be so woefully mistaken? It already IS a human being! How can he not know that?

If Clinton and Obama are not ignorant of the facts on this issue, then I could only conclude that they are liars on the worst order. Truth is, they'd rather allow the destruction of human life for the sake of liberals' pet theories than take a moral stand on any issue that could recognize infinite objective value of real unborn human life.
