Er, Tom...

....has yer boy Arlen slipped a gear...? No, no shtick because of the party
switcheroo, but because of comments like Kemp being alive if the GOP had allowed
more funding of cancer research, and this lack of funding is one of the reasons
he switched. I saw a report that said that gov't funding of cancer research
went from 2 to 3 bil under Clinton and from 3 to almost 5 under Bush (close
enough to about the same rate of increase, with Bush's tenture getting a slight
nod), but IAC, certainly no lack of funding under Bush. Apparently, he's making
this a (big?) part of his 2010 campaign, but ??? It's a worthy cause, but is it
really all that big an issue _for his re-election?
