Script of the latest South Dakota radio commercial produced by National Right to Life Committee.
 
Does Tim Johnson Favor Harvesting Human Clones?
National Right to Life 60-second radio ad
NARRATOR: A message from South Dakota Right to Life.

MAN: Honey, when I read about what the biotech industry wants to do with human cloning, it makes me sick. They want to clone thousands of human embryos, and then kill them for their parts.

WOMAN: It’s terrible! That’s why President Bush urged the Senate to pass the Brownback bill, to ban the cloning of human embryos. The House already passed it, with Congressman Thune’s support. But Senator Daschle is opposed, so it might not pass.

MAN: Daschle wants human cloning?!

WOMAN: He SAYS not, but really he’d allow biotech firms to clone all the human embryos they want -- if they make sure every embryo dies while they’re still small!

MAN: Clone them just to kill them? That’s awful. What about Tim Johnson?

WOMAN: That Johnson! He recently cosponsored a really weird bill that could allow human clones to be grown for months before being killed to harvest their parts.

MAN: What next! Don’t these guys understand that humans are more than just animals?

NARRATOR: President Bush, Congressman Thune, and 95% of the state legislature support a ban on the cloning of human embryos. Urge Senators Johnson and Daschle to listen and to support the ONLY bill that REALLY bans human cloning -- the Brownback bill.
