Rep Ted Franks Republican-Pregnancy from rape and incest Low

Ted Franks Republican-Pregnancy from rape Low

“The incidents of rape resulting in pregnancy are very low,” Franks, R-Ariz., said during a Judiciary committee markup of his legislation today as he expressed his opposition to a Democratic amendment to allow exceptions for rape and incest.

“When you make that exception, there’s usually a requirement to report the rape within 48 hours and, in this case, that’s impossible because this is in the sixth month of gestation and that’s what completely negates and vitiates the purpose of such an amendment.”

House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio), who's apparently grown a little sensitive to talk about the, Republican war on women threw a bit of a tantrum on the House floor during the legislative debate.

Who is Errol Flynn?

After the death of her charming rogue of a husband, Patrice Wymore returned to Hollywood for a brief revival of her career during which time she appeared in "Ocean's Eleven" with Frank Sinatra. In 1967 she came back to Jamaica for good and soon became known for her skills at cattle farming, once even winning the title of Champion Farmer. Today she continues to operate Errol Flynn Estates breeding beef cattle and growing coconuts.

In a recent interview she confided that she's still here because, "the Jamaica I fell in love with as a young bride still exists in many ways (certainly not all), and it is the pull of the peace and tranquility that keeps me here."

Patrice Wymore Flynn still lives in Castle Comfort Portland Jamaica, she continues to manage her 19000 acre Errol Flynn Estates where she runs her cattle ranch. Mrs Flynn has never integrated in the local community where she lives, she continues after over 50 years isolated and is not well known. Her public appearances are limited to national events especially those honoring the legacy of her late husband.
