". . . that way someone in Europe or Canada will develop say a cure for Parkinson's, using stem cell research and the US FDA won't allow it into the country. . . ."

Clinton's right. And when that happens, just like abortions, only rich Americans, able to hop on a plane and go somewhere else, will be able to afford it.

As I mentioned on another thread, if a couple of months from now, the Swiss announced that their stem-cell researchers had come up with a cure for various conditions including Parkinson's Disease, and shortly thereafter George noticed he was having balancing difficulties and began developing an uncontrollable tremor in his hands—I wonder how long it would be before he booked a trip to Switzerland. And would he, perhaps, board Air Force One and fly to Switzerland at the taxpayers' expense?
