From what little I've heard about Nancy Reagan wanting stem cell research to go forward against GWBush's religious' beliefs, it'll be interesting to see how Georgie boy handles this one.
I believe they've had words about it. The fact that he was invited to speak at the funeral suggests they've made their peace.
I think the government, organized religion and right wing fundie Presidents like GWBush should keep their noses out of the stem cell issue. Leave it to the scientists and doctors to do their thing and make life better for all of mankind.
Nancy Reagan surely wants stem cell funded and be allowed to continue. Now that Ronnie is dead, I think she will be a thorn in W's side. As beloved and respected as the Reagans are, I don't think W will oppose Nancy's wishes all that much...if at all.
doglover, Your reading of why Bush was invited to speak is spot on!
