What I Want from My Clone

Some scientists in Beaverton, Oregon have declared that they have cloned a monkey. Just what the world needs...more monkeys. Of course, we know what is coming next...human clones! These will be duplicated people. The U.N . has established a human rights commission to insure that clones have basic human rights. Other, more clandestine issues remain unresolved.

Should gays be allowed to clone themselves? The implications are stupifying. Imagine a world of cloned gay people suddenly in the ruling majority...if you are scared of the illegal aliens, what if illegally cloned aliens are taking your job or legally cloned gays are suddenly infiltrating our government, working as disgruntled post office employees,...or, making matters worse, what if you are taking your job away from you. Think about that can of worms.

Are we to see the day when naturally made humans are considered "inferior" beings to clones...and the clones will have all kinds of special rights to protect them while we have to settle for ordinary legal civilian rights. I want to put my foot down (while it is still my own foot I'm using). Body parts for clones may become a demand industry...My thinking goes like this..."Why see a good clone ruined just because they have a bad part which could easily be replaced with a human one?"...Frankenstein biology is already a big buck industry serving up eyeballs and lungs to those who can afford them...and there's no way to tell whether you're getting high quality parts or clone rejects...it's a nightmare which leaves me wondering who's Dr. Jeckyll and who is Mister Hyde?

We will be lulled into accepting clones as "people" just like a frog is slowly boiled in the warming water.Before you know it, clones will be living next door to you, virtually indistinguishable from real humans...and then comes legalizing marriage between clones and people. You can see it already...the bleeding hearts will demand marriage rights for clones. Job security for clones. Retirement benefits. One entitlement program after another, all to benefit cloned beings who look just like you and me, think just like you and me, eat the same foods we eat, and finally, they will be the masters and we the slaves.

Are we ready for a cloned President? Or clones on the Supreme Court? Wake up, there is no "clone clause" in the constitution forbidding a cloned George Bush from seeking eight years after the original George Bush has served his limit of two terms...or perhaps we might see a cloned JFK resurrected from the grave and a cloned Richard Nixon go at it again... would we have to suffer through another sweaty Dick Nixon on TV or a flamboyant playboy chasing women and smoking pot in the White House?

Scientists and researchers are quick to argue that cloned people would not be "carbon copies" of their doner human counterparts. All the mental, emotional, psychological and personality aspects of a clone would be their own...just the same as any other person. I, for one (or two or three), want real clones or no clones at all.

Don't be fooled by the clone-loving rhetoric of clone-loving liberals...who will think nothing of spending our taxes on any amount of copycat legislation...all to benefit their own re-elections with a network of duplicated supporters. Be warned against such "cloney-ism."

Once a copy, always a copy! The Islamo-crypto-fascist Muslim clones will be the same terrorists we know are operating now in our country...only there will be more of them.

And don't be fooled by "clones-in-the-sky" promises of more beautiful women (albeit clones) to date, or meet on-line. What you can be sure of is that there will be more people guzzling gas and riding around in their SUV's, there will be longer lines at the supermarket checkout, harder to get reservations for dinner at all the popular restaurants, and the hospitals will be full of sick clones and the prisons overcrowded with clone criminals...
