Why am I not surprised. I'm going to have a heart attack and die from not 
surprised.

Stem Cells, The White House And Rankled Researchers

Monday, January 22, 2007; A17

Harvard University researchers Kevin Eggan, Chad Cowan and Douglas A. Melton 
wrote members of Congress earlier this month to complain that the White House 
domestic policy office's report "Advancing Stem Cell Science Without Destroying 
Human Life" was a "misuse and misunderstanding" of their research. Excerpts:

"We are surprised to see our work on reprogramming adult stem cells used to 
support arguments that research involving human embryonic stem cells is 
unnecessary. On the contrary, we assert that human embryonic stem cells hold 
great promise to find new treatments and cures for diseases. . . .

"The work that we performed and that was cited in the White House policy report 
is precisely the type of research that is currently being harmed by the 
President's arbitrary limitation on federal funding for human embryonic stem 
cell research. . . .

"We feel that the President's restrictive policy has directly impeded research 
that provides a hope for cures for millions of Americans. . . .

"The White House has clearly gotten it wrong. The overwhelming consensus in the 
scientific and medical community is that embryonic stem cell research holds the 
greatest potential to cure diseases and end the suffering of millions."
