Excellent, no more cloning liberals.
We haven’t controlled the house and senate here in over 40 some-odd years. The real shame is that Mark Dayton somehow was elected to be the blockade to some real change in MN.
Given that it’s Minnesota, that’s probably a good idea.
Where you from, NOOB?
Uranus.
Nice....
I believe you are right...Federal law says no!!
I was hoping they would succeed in bringing back Peter Graves so we wouldn’t need to use Tom Cruise for the next Impossible Mission.

I hate to pop your bubble, but the bill would ban *human* cloning.
Sounds like Franken-slime wouldn’t be covered.
“Bill Would Ban Human Cloning In Minnesota

They have enough “Ya, you betcha’s” already. They figure more cloning of these would be reverse affirmative action.
I mean, if there is a federal law against it, don’t they have a lot more important crap to take care of in my former state?
I’d start with Wisconsin but that’s just me I guess.
