I have read the bill several times now. Funny thing: Even though the title of the bill is “The Human Cloning Ban and Stem Cell Protection Act of 2007,” the bill never even mentions stem cell research except in the title. The bill legalizes human cloning and paying women to procure eggs for use in cloning. It is not at all about stem cell research. It is thus a thoroughly dishonest piece of legislating. No wonder people are losing faith in honest governance.
