So when the Siren of Enchantment crooked her finger last week at Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist, he strolled to the Senate floor and urged American taxpayers to underwrite embryonic stem cell research, promising that the shift would "define us as a civilized and ethical society forever in the eyes of history."
