All-Positive Week continues: DeGette kicking butt

The Denver Post reports that Denver Democratic representative Diana DeGette's stem-cell research bill will probably finally clear the Senate. But President Bush has threatened to veto it. Now DeGette is asking Bush to tell her personally why he would oppose research that could save millions of lives:

"All I request is that he sit down face to face with me and let me try to explain the impact this bill will have on the millions of people who suffer from these diseases," DeGette said in a phone call last week from London, where she traveled to learn about the United Kingdom's stem-cell research.

In May 2005, DeGette helped assemble an unlikely bipartisan coalition to pass a stem-cell bill in the House over the objections of GOP House leaders, Bush and social conservatives.


Tell me right now, how much butt does Diana DeGette kick? Lots. That's how much.
