Someone Call the IRS

Cranky Liberal, seeing the glorious light of the divine Jesus as explained by one Tom DeLay, is proposing some tax code changes.

He’s right. Even though those leftover embryos will NEVER become more than what they are, they are real humans. Just because they are no longer dividing and organizing into distinct life forms, they are real human beings. I say we pass a bill right now that recognizes them as such.

I think that each fertilized egg in a clinic should have full status as an American citizen, protected forever from harm. The parents of course should be able to claim each and every fertilized egg as dependents on their taxes. They are, after all, human life. I think I’ll talk to my wife tonight about setting up 7 or 8 in-vitro Americans. Maybe then I could afford to fill the tank up in my Jeep every week.

...why stop there? Let's pass a bill confirming that - hey, Catholic brothers and sisters - every sperm really is sacred, and a human being to boot!

I can see my revised 2005 W-4 already - total number of allowances? 400,000,000,000,000 - give or take a few hundred million.

I'm gonna be rich!
