Here's whats really funny. Nobody's outlawing stem cell research, we just aren't simply funding it. Now, I'm all for the government funding it, but we sometimes forget just how much government $$$ we actually spend on health research. As far as univeristies are concerned, I would estimate its several times the amnt we spend on all other research combined.

Just think about it. Wouldn't you yourself like to vote on what type of research projects should get money? We should be able to directly vote on issues like this, money would be allocated by propoertional numbers of votes. Then republicans wouldn't have to vote to fund stem cell research, but it would still get funding.
