But they had lied about what voters would be sanctioning with this vote. The statement is true, in the sense it implies deceit was going to pass easily without voters being aware they were writing cloning into their state constitution as a right.

John Danforth, former Missouri Senator, ordained Episcopal minister, the man who officiated at Ronald Reagan's funeral, and someone I have a tremendous amount of respect for, has come out in favor of Amendment 2. I cannot imagine a man of Danforth's integrity favoring it if it allowed for human cloning.

Imagine it. It is in there. The amendment "specifically" bans cloning. Clinton parsing here, it defines specifically that cloning involves implanting fertilized eggs into a womb. By rewriting the definition of what cloning is, anything done outside the womb isn't cloning. Even if it IS.
