Jerry Lewis on Stem Cell reserch and Bush "he did a lot of...harm."
Question: How does the organization feel about stem cells?

Jerry: Oh, that's my dream to get stem cell. Jesus Christ. ... It would probably help my kids more than anything else right now, stem cell. And it's a shame that it's been blocked. Blocked for what? Don't get me started on who I know blocked it. The Congress as far as I'm concerned, the goddamn idiots.

Question: I think Bush was the one that blocked it after Congress wanted it, right?

Jerry: Bush blocked it good. Oh yeah, Bush is one of my favorite forget-about-its. He didn't make a lot of friends. ... He got in the way of something that could help children and adults; rather than dying on us, they live a fruitful life. He's got to feel like a jerk.

Question: And it's almost eight years of progress it has stopped.

Jerry: Absolutely. And I think it's unfair to attack him. He's done a lot of things that did a lot of harm. I can't tell you too many things he did that did a lot of good. But it's a tough job, and stuff passes you that you pass on, that you have no idea the extension and how far-reaching that decision goes.

Question: Have you cried a lot?

Jerry: Me? On the hour. Sure. As strong as you get, there are certain parts of you that don't change. ...
