This is perhaps the single most intelligent response to the critique of the Bush administration's handling of the stem cell dossier.
(Note that I still consider this off topic as pertains to the article, but never the less...)
I too was shocked when I first heard that Bush would dare end stem cell research. I mean, come on folks, it's a question of survival for those of us that are already living, right?!
Then I sat back and informed myself a little. Okay, he has only stopped government financing of the research.
Where is the problem? Contrary to popular belief, not all "geeks" believe that we need the crutch of the government to generate innovation.
