Story here.

  1. If he does veto it – will the votes be there to override the veto?

  2. Should this bill become law or not?

It suddenly all makes sense: NASA and Human Rights groups are predicting that in 10 years illegal immigrants, as part of a Concert of Powers, will use private firearms found in William Jefferson’s freezer to prevent Iran from supplying embryonic stem cells to the Taliban.

You crack me up John.

Seriously, I’m glad (for once) to be on the side of a majority of the American populace in supporting a moral/domestic issue! Embryonic stem cell research is important, cannot yet be supplanted by adult stem cell or de-differentiated stem cell research (although that day may certainly come), and I abhor restrictions on scienctific funding. This bill should become law, but won’t, because its proponents are not going to be able to find the votes to override.
