Taking the gloves off in the stem cell research battle is a good thing. But how is that Patti's political stance gets immediate attention, while Ron Jr.'s eulogy to his father goes relatively unnoticed by the mainstream press.

Now of course he doesn't mention Bush by name, but you know to whom he's referring here:

"Dad was also a deeply, unabashedly religious man. But he never made the fatal mistake of so many politicians wearing his faith on his sleeve to gain political advantage.

True, after he was shot and nearly killed early in his presidency, he came to believe that God had spared him in order that he might do good. But he accepted that as a responsibility, not a mandate. And there is a profound difference.
"

Ron - from your mouth to God's hears, as my grandmother would say.
