What is "our position on fetal tissue research?" Do we have one? Do we
need one? Who are "we"?
If "we" are advocates of the Udall Parkinson's bill, and the Udall bill
does not propose to support fetal tissue research, why do we need to
have and defend a position on fetal tissue research? It is not relevant
to the Udall bill. In fact I recommend that our position be just that,
"It is irrelevant!"
