5 blastulas or 1 baby?

A fascinating war room post over on Salon. A little background for you. A liberal called into a conservative talk radio show and asked the host if he was trapped in a burning building, which would he save 5 blastulas, or one 2 year-old. The question makes the obvious point that if you truly believe that the life of an unborn child is equal to that of one that has been born, then logicially 5 blastulas are more valuable than one 2 year-old.

The radio show host refused to answer the hypothetical question, but it's interesting to see him try to flail around the logical fallacy of his position.
