Harry said that they would be voting on S. 5 at 5:30 EDT tonight..and then S. 30, after that.
S. 5...is the BOO,HISS one...S. 30 is the Coleman/Isaakson one that Pres. Bush said he would go along with.
That one would use embryonic stem cells that would be determined to NOT be able to produce a viable fetus.
Sen. Coburn explained it yesterday..and he made it sound so simple...
Of course then Harkin got up and complained that Pres. Bush is trying to be the moral determiner...not, noting that they are also doing that..but at least Prs. Bush isn’t asking taxpayers to pay for the killing of babies.
PING

As usual, Hatch argues his case well, although I don't agree with him on this one.
