She obviously has a political bent on the issue and has not bothered to do her homework or does not care to thinking we are all ignorant on this subject. Bush was 100% for stem cell research. What he opposed, as well as myself and many others, is embryonic stem cell research which destroys a human embryo. There is a huge difference. Embryonic stem cell research and has not cured or made better one thing! Not one. On the other hand, stem cell research uses bone marrow, nasal tissue, fat, blood, brain tissue, amniotic fluid and umbilical cord blood and have been used to cure and/or help in 100's of diseases and injuries. Leukemia being just one. Adult stem cell research is growing in leaps and bounds because there has been so much success. I would encourage everyone to study this for themselves. It is important we know the difference and make sure our tax dollars are not being spent on misguided information such as Ms. Schildt's. I recall Arnold Schwarzenegger announcing the state of California was going to spend one billion dollars on embryonic stem cell research. What a moron. Now his state is bankrupt, not just because of this but for stupid stuff like this. Embryonic stem cells have not had one cure! Adult stem cells are the only way to go.
