: Dispatches from the Culture WarsObama to Reverse Bush Stem Cell Policy
By Ed Brayton
Politico reports:
President Obama told House Democrats Thursday that he will sign an executive order withdrawing limitations on federal funding ...... for stem cell research. "I guarantee you that we will sign an executive order for stem cells," Obama said in response to a question from Rep. Jim Langevin (D-R.I.). Obama added, though, that he wants to work with the House and Senate to make the order solid, according to the pool report.
The remarks were made during a private question-and-answer session with members and confirmed by two sources.
Good. That policy was nothing more than a bone thrown to the religious right and it is about time it was reversed. It's one thing to argue against federal funding for research; it's another thing to favor it for everything but this one type of research solely because a bunch of ignorant people think it has something to do with abortion.
