How to tell Republicans are serious about the unborn.

I am an individual that endorses choice. I believe that everyone should have the ability to make their own decisions regarding their health. Republicans will tell you that they are for choice, but that they are speaking for the unborn.

So, it occurred to me that Republicans want to establish the unborn as citizens. Back it up, I say. When the Republicans get around to giving tax credits for the unborn, I will believe that they are serious.

To follow their logic, it costs money to raise children. Thus a credit/deduction for children on state/federal taxes. It also costs money to prepare for the birth of a child. At tax time, give the families a credit for an unborn child if the birth will be in the next year.

Then I will know that Republicans take this life thing seriously.
