Thanks for a reasoned response. My point was that President Bush's presidency didn't prevent this research from taking place, and President Obama's didn't result in the announcement of the research.

It would have happened no matter who was president.

I'm saddened that FR has become proudly anti-science and proudly knee-jerk, it seems. It truly hurts our cause to display such irrationality. I hope that some people will stop and think and get informed instead of just screaming.

Sometimes some of us act much more like emotional liberals than like rational conservatives...

So you actually believe this .. that it was just a coincidence that the FDA suddenly proclaimed this total departure from Pres. Bush's standards .......... 3 days after the Jan. 20th inauguration ?

"Geron (who will now get our taxpayer millions/billions) and FDA officials told The Wall Street Journal that it was a coincidence that the announcement came just three days after George Bush left the White House. Bush restricted federal funding of embryonic stem cell research."

You’re exactly right.
