Funding for research has very little to do with who is in office.  Just 
cause he put a stop to stem cell research doesn't mean that is why they 
didn't get funding for parkinsons research.  My brother is doing 
research on nano-sensors for medical use, and in the last 6 months has 
received close to $2million in grants.  The animal sanctuary where I am 
director of engineering lost its primary funding 5 years ago for 
conducting heart disease research with bears.  But we just got a grant 
to study how different animals react to the monotone sound from TV's.

I found out this weekend the SBA and some other govt agency is holding 
some kind of interviews with people looking to start their own 
business.  And they will be awarding 20 people in the Fort Myers, FL 
area with grants for $125k.  Why the hell would Bush and his boys want 
to give that much money away to people that need it?  They should take 
it as a pay raise or use it to drill for oil in the everglades and arctic.
