• http://thehuma nfuture.blogsp ot.com/2008/11 /stem-cells-10 1-adult-embryo nic-and.html: With the recent coverage of President-elec t Obama's intent on reversing President Bush's executive order that limited the majority of embryonic stem cell research from receiving federal tax dollars, I thought it was a good time to review the political history, discuss the terminology and basic information regarding stem cells. In terms of a bit of history, President Clinton was the first president who could have permitted federal funding on embryonic stem cell research, but he did not. President Bush was the first to allow federal funds to be used on a limited amount of embryos for embryonic stem cell research,embry os which had already been destroyed and stem cell lines created from those embryos.
