...jobs? The Bush Administration seems to think so. Case in point: Ernie Fitzgerald, the Air Force cost analyst who in 1969 told Congress about $2 billion in cost overruns on the C-5 cargo plane, prompting President Nixon to tell officials to "get rid of that son of a bitch."

Once you have inserted the DNA you want to clone and tricked the eggs into becoming embryos, moreover, you can't just implant them at will in a surrogate bitch. Cows, goats and sheep can be thrown into estrus--readiness for pregnancy--by giving them a hormone shot. Not dogs.
