Washington, DC (LifeNews.com) -- Members of the House of Representatives are debating a human cloning ban today that doesn't really ban human cloning. The measure prohibits the practice for reproductive purposes but allows human cloning to create embryos for the sole purpose of their destruction and President Bush would likely veto the bill.

The Bush administration today released a statement to Congress of what the White House policy would likely be on the legislation.

"The President unequivocally opposes all forms of human cloning," it said.

"The Administration is strongly opposed to any legislation that would prohibit human cloning for reproductive purposes but permit the creation of cloned embryos or development of human embryo farms for research, which would require the destruction of nascent human life," the statement added.

Thank God for a real pro-life President.

Life issues (abortion and such) used to be the #1 issue for religious conservatives. I feel they are somewhat taking life issues for granted now that we have a pro-life stalwart in the WH. Every day I think about what horrible shape this country would be in on life issues with Kerry as President and give thanks for President Bush.

“The President unequivocally opposes all forms of human cloning,” .... we won’t need any humans cloned because we’ll have enough humans from Mexico.....Thanks anyway Bush for your support.
