I’m not in any way

August 10, 2001 by Michael Boyle

a fan of George W Bush, but tonight’s speech on stem cell research was fascinating. Just as only Nixon could go to China (which is doubtful, in fact, but that’s the common wisdom), only a rightie like Bush could squeeze up the middle like he did. I venture that if Gore or Clinton had made the exact same speech either one would have been crucified by the right. I think W could get a pass on it, though – even though he very clearly left his adminstration open to the possibility of making much more radical moves in the future.
