Which bill was there that he signed other than what he stated he authorized? It looks as if to me its still sitting in the Senate where Republican Senators like Hatch and Specter support it...

The FY 2002 Labor, Health and Human Services, and Education Appropriations bill (H.R. 3061) still contains the Dickey Amendment but includes report language authorizing President Bush’s decision, permitting federally-funded research on embryonic stem cell lines created before August 9. Senator Arlen Specter (R-PA) plans to push legislation (likely S. 723) in February or March that will go beyond the President’s guidelines.

H.R. 3061 was signed by Pres. Bush, allowing funding for SCR. This is a bill allowing for Federal Funding towards experiments on Stem Cells gleaned from fetuses that had been killed.

But you keep right on shoveling sand on that pile there in the cat box, maybe it will stop stinking.
