What does surprise me is that he just exercised his first Presidential veto, after 6 years of being a Congressional rubber stamp, to veto federally funded stem cell research. Not that this stops other countries from doing it mind you, but this is an area that the US could be a very big player with all the brain power and bucks there, bringing the fruits of this international research effort to bear that much sooner now.

Nor does it stop private industry from working with stem cells.
New Orleans; couldn't evacuate its people,
U.S. couldn't evacuate its people from Lebenon.
The lesson seems to be do not let Gov't do things tha private industry can do better ala Halibutron, MicroSoft, US Steel, General Motors, the Mom and Pop down the road.
