The level of idiocy -- or intellecutal dishonesty stemming from political persuasion -- from embryonic stem cell research proponents is enormous on this point.

Scientists were forced in a good way to find other , maybe even better research with stem cells because the federal government didnt pay for embryonic research. Just because the federal government didnt pay for the research doesnt mean that there wasnt any happening , it just meant that instead of tax dollars paying for it , it was most ikely privately funded.
