Sadly, Issa was the subject of unflattering commentary on
californiastemcellreport.

Klein would be little more than another Darrell Issa if he were not the chair of CIRM's Oversight Committee. “Darrell who?” you might ask. Issa, like Klein, played a major role into a ballot measure that has had an enormous impact on California. In Issa's case, he financed, with $1.7 million of his own money, the effort that placed the gubernatorial recall on the 2003 ballot and sent Arnold Schwarzenegger to the state house. Issa was widely believed to be considering a run for governor. But today he remains an obscure California congressman.

IPBiz notes that Issa may be doing more to advance innovation than Klein is.

One other point about the blog. Californiastemcellreport apparently thinks a chimera is the mythological beast composed of more than one animal. Wikipedia notes in zoology, a chimera is an animal that has two or more different populations of genetically distinct cells that originated in different zygotes; if the different cells emerged from the same zygote, it is called a mosaicism.
