I supported it for a minute ...

An Xoff correspondent sent this from Saturday's Journal Sentinel, with a comment:

"Republican gubernatorial candidate Mark Green on Friday continued to try to defuse stem cell research as a campaign issue, saying he supports 'all the research that's taking place in Madison - all of it.'

"Later, however, Green said he wasn't aware of new, privately funded research in Madison that destroys human embryos, and said he doesn't support that."

This is a stunning admission on Green's part -- he took a position before he had made ANY inquiry on the scope of the activity being undertaken by UW professors and researchers!

Maybe he should be auditioning for Saturday Night Live -- "What's all this I hear about stem cell research? Oh -- never mind!"
