Actually, Jolie, cord cells are not the same. Embryonic stem cells come from an egg that has been fertilized and allowed to age up to 7 days. Adult stem cells are different as well.
The debate only concerns stem cells because of the erroneous belief of the Religious Right who believes you have to abort fetuses to get them.

Stem cells can also be "harvested" from the cord blood after child birth, no ethical or moral crisis involved ...
