Oklahoma Republican seeks to ban use of aborted fetuses in food products
by Kaili Joy GrayFollow .

Well, it's good to know that lawmakers are finally cracking down on this problem:

A bill introduced in the Oklahoma Legislature has some folks scratching their heads, as it prohibits "the manufacture or sale of food or products which use aborted human fetuses."

The bill states:

No person or entity shall manufacture or knowingly sell food or any other product intended for human consumption which contains aborted human fetuses in the ingredients or which used aborted human fetuses in the research or development of any of the ingredients.

1. As someone living in OK, I am so thankful!

These brave lawmakers are so busy protecting us from eating dead babies and the 15 Muslims in the state who, of course, want to rule us with Sharia Law and keeping homosexuals out of the National Guard, despite the leftist, commie Federal government's reversing DADT! They are such brave, patriotic souls!



Sometimes, I really wish stupidity was painful to the stupid!

2. Now see that's odd...

But yet ya know, if I was in the Oklahoma Legislature, I'd vote for it.

3. Paranoia taken to extremes

Who is putting aborted foetuses in the food?!

With all the real problems that exist concerning food safety and environmental pollutants - why focus on this non-existent one?

There is something rather scary in the Right's obsession with abortion; usually combined with a total lack of concern with what happens to you after you're born, if you don't happen to be rich and healthy.

4. That is not happening....

ever. That man is obviously a writer from Faux News......He must of been watching a chain saw cut'em up -grind'em up horror movie on Foxx 45 chiller theater or something....You see, this falls under the catagory of canabalism....causes "Mad Cow Disease"...this aint happenening....

5. What the Dems should do is try to attach an amendment to it, to get something good done,

like an actual food safety regulation, or fund a school lunch program. Then no one could vote against it because in the next election they could be accused of supporting fetuses in food.

They could do that in congress too. They could introduce a bill in the Senate to ban human meat and add a 5% tax increase for billionaires. No one could vote against it unless they want to support cannibalism.

6. Great idea!

7. Dems should attach a rider that bans Monsanto seeds and hormones given to cattle, pork, and poultry.

8. Dude it was a movie....

I know you saw Charlton Heston and thought it was some kind of ad from the NRA. But it was only a fictional movie!

Solyent Green isn't made out of people and certainly not human fetuses!

[JoePhilly]

13. YUP .... the idiot is confusing a bunch of Charlton Heston movies and his NRA role ....

I get the sense the idiot is combining ....

The Ten Commandments, Solyent Green, The Omega man ... and there might even be some Planet of the Apes elements involved in his delusion as well.

9. They should pass a law prohibiting Republicans from eating any form of fetuses.

Human or otherwise.

10. While they're at it, why don't they ban chicken nipples in food products?

There are just as many of those as there are fetuses.

11. Now you know why Gingrich could win Oklahoma in the

General Election. He and his fruity ideas would fit in really well with the Oklahoma State Legislature.

12. This sounds like the anti-semite's "Blood libel".

Bigoted stories of Jews killing Christian babies and using their blood in making matso.
