Title: Ryan & Akin co-sponsored an anti-abortion bill
Post by: 240 is Back on August 20, 2012, 02:44:40 PM
Earlier today, Missouri U.S. Senate candidate Rep. Todd Akin (R-MO) claimed that “legitimate rape” does not often lead to pregnancy because “the female body has ways to try to shut that whole thing down.” This is not the first time the biologically challenged senate candidate tried to minimize the impact of rape. Last year, Akin joined with GOP vice presidential candidate Rep. Paul Ryan (R-WI) as two of the original co-sponsors of the “No Taxpayer Funding for Abortion Act,” a bill which, among other things, introduced the country to the bizarre term “forcible rape.”

Why should tax payer money go to fund abortions?

Why should tax payer money go to fund abortions?

it doesn't but Ryan and Akin are ideological siamese twins when it comes to abortion

neither one believes it should be legal for any reason although something tells me if one of Ryans daughters was raped he'd find a way to make an exception
