Spending his first veto on this certainly has questionable aspects. But somehow the EneMedia seems not to deem little items like this worthy of more than a buried lede. Though certainly consistent with their unrelenting effort to bury the real history of Nazism and their Arab allies:

"European countries have widely differing national laws, with Britain actively encouraging stem-cell research. Germany, with an aversion to genetic experimentation rooted partly in the legacy of Nazi abuses, effectively bans it.

Stem-cell research would receive only a small fraction of the EU science budget of some 51 billion euros ($64.3 billion) in 2007-13 but Germany is hoping to rally a coalition of mainly Roman Catholic countries to block it.

A draft ministerial decision proposed by Finland, which holds the 25-nation bloc's rotating presidency, would rule out EU funding for research on human reproductive cloning, genetic modification of human beings and artificial creation of human embryos solely for research purposes.

But it would allow funding for research on human stem cells."

And remember, the EneMedia keeps wanting you to believe that W McChimpy is banning all embryonic stem cell research. Horsepucky. Private companies can research it all they want. W just won't let FedGov fund them to do it. The libs are steaming probably more because of the anti-socialist nature of what W is doing than anything else. They won't tell you that though because, well, you know, you're knuckle-dragging stupid...
