Aren't stem cells kind of a moot issue at this point? The states (true blue, I might add) have taken up the slack for the Feds. California and Mass. see their economic futures tied to biotech. They are using state funds to foster stem cell research independently. The question isn't about whether or not the research will happen but who will win the prize. Will it be USA companies or will it be Korean, Japanese and the EU companies that walk away from the table with all the winnings?
All the fundies will have their rightousness intact while others fly home in their new Lear Jets.
