Michael J. Fox ad...truth or lies?

You decide...Michael J. Fox is either ill-informed, or he's a liar. Sympathies for his current condition aside, the debate as he frames it is not accurate. Stem cell research is not in danger of being outlawed. The only thing the Republicans are wanting to do is end Federal funding of the research. Considering that a private university somewhere will rake in millions in profit from whatever the research yeilds, I see no reason for my private money to be used as part of their research. What IS in danger of being outlawed is human embryonic cloning. There are plenty of other reasons to not vote Republican without resorting to lies & misleading statements. (more)
