No tax exemption for aborted babies....so this proves the pro abortion logic??

Back  from Tanzania and onto a couple of days of jet lag......but the silliness abounds from people over at abortion gang as in this post.
Why the IRS is pro choice.......
Every time I prepare a tax return I find myself shaking my head over the strangeness of the war over abortion. Did you know that a child, as defined by the Internal Revenue Code is one that is born alive? There is no exemption provided for a stillborn baby, or for a fetus as of December 31.

Duh! An exemption is for someone you  support or intend to support....... not take out....as in ending a life....as in abortion...but that got me to wondering....do the people who have "live birth abortions"  have the audacity of claiming a dependent because the baby lived for some minutes and/or hours after birth....probably not!  Hard to explain to others what happened.....would our esteemed POTUS who supported live birth abortions , argued and defended them while in the IL State Senate....vote PRESENT on such a bill allowing for an exemption for children butchered under theses circumstances??

At the Abortion Gang blog, Shayna attempts to argue that pro-lifers know fetuses aren't the same as children because they haven't (to the best of her knowledge) pushed for tax exemptions for unborn children and stillborns. The argument is obviously logically flawed for a number of reasons but Shayna is also unaware that pro-lifers in at least one state have successfully passed legislation to give families who experience a stillbirth after 20 weeks a one-time tax exemption. The legislation passed unanimously.

Open mouth, insert foot....
