re: stem cell research had absolutely no chance of passing, so Coleman is working on his own bill that would allow about 200 more stem cell lines to be used for research.

Please don't think I am in agreement with Coleman on anything. I'm simply repeating the conversation.

I pointed out that Republicans put profits before people, and he was quite offended by that and said it isn't true of Coleman. When I pointed out that it is true of BushCo and that Coleman always supports him, the aide cited Coleman's recent "tin ear" criticism of the administration.

This guy was a very passionate supporter of his boss. But, I will give him credit for taking the time to have a debate with me on these issues.
