Patricia Heaton — who won an Emmy for her work on "Everyone Loves Raymond" — is taking sides in the stem-cell research debate.

She’s put herself on the opposite side of Michael J. Fox, the much-beloved actor who’s been battling Parkinson’s disease since 1991 and is a firm supporter of embryonic stem-cell research.

Heaton is now appearing in a commercial intended to persuade Missouri voters to vote against Amendment 2 on their ballot.

Fox, in his own commercial, urges voters to support the measure and Democrat Claire McCaskill, who is running for U.S. Senate against the incumbent, Jim Tenant, a Republican who opposes embryonic stem-cell research.

Wow...you're tough! Remind me never to have an opinion that is different than yours. I shudder to think of the abuse that might be heaped on me.

I call it like I see it. If I were an attorney, I would be the prosecuter who gets the really bad guys on cross-exam.

...has any disease been cured with Stem Cell research? I don't believe so. Diseases can be cured with natural and herbalistic means but thier is no money in it for the Big Pharmecutical Industries...

As someone who has studied and trained in herbalism for sixteen years I sympathize with that thought. "Cure" is an awful big word though that doesn't apply to the vast majority of herbal therapies.

But getting back to SC research ... here is an excellent post with links which outlines many of the 72 viable therapies developed with Adult Stem Cells. It is, however, true that Embryonic Stem Cell research has been a complete bust in spite of some six billion dollars spent.
