Henninger said: "Basically, the controversy is over. And I think, in retrospect, we should say something on behalf of, say, [President] George Bush, who vetoed that stem-cell bill." However, the senior American scientist wrote in a Washington Post op-ed that the new developments "[f]ar from vindicat[e]" the Bush administration's policy "of withholding federal funds from many of those working to develop potentially lifesaving embryonic stem cells." http://mediamatters.org/items/200712100004 Mon, 10 Dec 2007 15:52:07 EST Media figures warned incoming Democratic majority against aggressive oversight http://mediamatters.org/items/200701030002 http://mediamatters.org/items/200701030002 Tue, 2 Jan 2007 19:17:54 EST Echoing Drudge and Savage, Dobson and Henninger claimed Foley scandal is "sort of a joke" and a "prank[ ]" by pages http://mediamatters.org/items/200610060004 James Dobson and Daniel Henninger both echoed a claim previously made by Matt Drudge and Michael Savage that the sexually explicit communications that Rep.
