Cabela's...

Somebody posted a thread about handgun ammo being sold out at Cabela's, and it reminded me of one of the RW viral emails going around.

It seems that Cabela's was charging the "medical device tax" for items, and of course, the RWnuts jumped on it as an example of what Obamacare will cost.

It was a mistake... and debunked.. http://www.snopes.com/politics/taxes/medicaldevice.asp
...but of course the RW still is bleating about it... and emailing it to their idiot friends. They want sooo badly to believe anything bad about Obamacare.

My question: Anybody have any inkling about whether it was an honest - if incredibly stupid - mistake on the part of Cabela's, or was it something Cabela's did as a protest about Obamacare.

Was it a stupid error or a political statement?

If a 12 week old fetus...

... or any fetus is determined to be - in some states - a person with rights.....

Can they be claimed as a dependent on Federal income tax returns?

Never mind all that shit about claiming a kid for his birth year onward. Claim the kid from conception!

Let the IRS sort it all out. Those people are nuthin' but understanding.
