PRESIDENT'S STATE OF THE UNION ADDRESSES ABORTION AND CLONING

WASHINGTON, January 29, 2003 (LifeSiteNews.com) - While the major portion of U.S. President Bush's State of the Union address yesterday concerned economic issues and the U.S. response to terrorism, the President did manage to insert his hopes for pro-life legislation.

"We are building a more welcoming society -- a culture that values every life," he said. "And in this work we must not overlook the weakest among us. I ask you to protect infants at the very hour of their birth and end the practice of partial-birth abortion." The President also asked for the banning of both reproductive and therapeutic cloning saying: "And because no human life should be started or ended as the object of an experiment, I ask you to set a high standard for humanity, and pass a law against all human cloning."
