You have on occasion claimed to be one who is not divorced from
science,
yet
have constantly supported the ban on stem-cell research.

There is no ban on stem cell research. You want to take some kind of
high
road argument, at least get the facts straight.

I never took you for such a pedantic individual.

Sorry, the lack of honesty in the campaigns on this issue has caused it to
be a sore point.

Excuse me, the federal
funding ban on stem-cell research.

Still not correct. The federal funding for creation of additional embryonic
lines is banned.
There are arguments wether these lines are viable and sufficient and
uncontaminated etc but from what I've read they are more than sufficient to
support all qualified research projects.


I am sure that with policy that is based on rigors of science such as
this,
America will continue be the dominant science and technology leader for
many
years to come.

If it was so promising the private sector would fund it.
