I don't remember if he actually used "embryonic" stem cell research. You can used just stem cells that are not "embryonic". Maybe that's what Michael was referring to? Or not. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.
Can't researchers use whatever stem cells they want? I thought it was just the groups dragging on the gov. teet that cannot use embryonic cells.
You're wrong.
Michael J. Fox never said the word "embryonic", but he was referring to existing and proposed restrictions on embryonic stem cell research. His did not use the term because he is trying to obscure the issue, and the Democrats know that if the word "embryonic" is used, they lose a lot of votes. But if he is not talking about embryonic stem cell research, then his statements make no sense at all.

Non-embryonic stem cell research is not controversial and receives a lot of federal funding. Michael J. Fox is talking specifically about fetal stem cell research, whether he uses the word or not.
Liberals like to confuse the two so they can wrap conservatives objections to fetal stem cell research (which has produced not a single treatment for anything) with the perfectly acceptable (and currently productive) use of adult stem cells for treatment.
