Kay Votes For Stem Cells
Sincere, non-snarky credit where credit is due: Sen. Hutchison was one of the 17 Republicans who broke ranks to pass legislation to ease the Bush administration's stem cell limits, with a final roll call vote of 63-34.
Note that Cornyn voted against that bill, though both of them voted for the "other" bill, Republican-sponsored and not veto-threatened legislation that also passed, with a vote of 70-28. When Cornyn tells everyone next year that he "voted for stem cell legislation", please remember it was this limited "sham" alternative.
