I don't think they do.

I think there are fairly bold majorities that support federal funding of stem cell research.

I think you can be libertarian but still support federally funded science, especially for science that doesn't necessarily fall into the capitalist system (not viagra).  Science improves business and stuff.

Huh?  It was a ban on federal research dollars.

Did it even go so far as to ban companies receiving federal dollars to have no part in stem cell research?  Because, if so, this is a bigger deal.  It reminds me of the refusal to give any money to international health agencies that also give family planning advice*
