If the Republicans had wanted to prevent abortions, they would have…

• Funded a thorough and mandatory sex education initiative from the earliest grades in all schools and combined it with the distribution of free contraceptives in all high schools, public and private (religious schools included)
• Legislated generous family leave for both mothers and fathers
• Provided federally funded day care as a national priority
• Expanded adoption services, including encouraging gay parents to adopt children, and they would have encouraged gay couples to marry and adopt
• Provided a generous tax incentive to have children and direct financial assistance and educational opportunities for all families, including single parents
• Raised taxes to pay for these programs
• Never have equated stem cell research with abortion, much less with murder, thereby making the anti-abortion position patently ridiculous
• Above all, they would have addressed the injustice of the growing gap between the superrich and everyone else and fought to raise the living standards of poor people. (Forty percent of all women seeking abortion live on $10,000 a year or less.)

No no, all of this is SOCIALISM. We can only prevent abortions by misinforming young people and taking away any access to birth control!

Kidding. Seriously, everything on this list, if it were enacted, would drastically decrease the abortion rate. But hey, like Colbert once said, the truth has a liberal bias.
