Republicans For Rape?

Missouri Republican Senate candidate Rep. Todd Akin, “If it’s a legitimate rape, the female body has ways to try to shut that whole thing down.”

Republicans for Legitimate Rape

Republican Rep Paul Ryan, "Ryan co-sponsored legislation with Todd Akin to limit federal funding for abortion to victims of ‘forcible rape’ - as if there is any other kind of rape?"

Wisniewski is correct that Ryan and Akin co-sponsored legislation in July 2010 and January 2011 that, as originally written, limited federal funding for abortions to pregnancies resulting from "forcible rape" and certain other circumstances.

Rape is a type of sexual assault usually involving sexual intercourse, which is initiated by one or more persons against another person without that person's consent.

The Republicans have a serious problem with respect for women and the rights of women, since the result of the 2010 Elections the Republicans have established, "a War on Women and the rights of Women" this will result in part of the President winning the Election on November 6th 2012 with a vast majority of the women's vote.

I used to get alarmed when Republican Politicians say derogatory and dangerous things about women.Then Republicans create policies, supporting the Private sector denying women equal rights in the work place and table Laws that deny women the right to Birth control, cancer screening the right to make an independent informed decision in the case of Rape or incest.

Republicans for Forcible Rape 

Paul Ryan the former Republican Vice President Nominee co-sponsored a Bill in Congress re-defining Rape as "forcible Rape" that means a woman rejecting sexual contact by saying, No! is no longer enough if the man forces himself on her. If a man forces himself on her against her will, she would have to prove her un-approval in Court of Law.

Who are the Victims? RAPE, Abuse and INCEST

Presidential Candidate Rick Santorum

When a 12 year old  girl is the subject of rape or incest, shouldn't the parent of this child have the right to seek the medical assistance necessary to ensure that the child who may become pregnant does not bear a child whom she would not be ready for?. Under the Person-hood bill supported by Congressman Paul Ryan and Presidential Candidate Rick Santorum and passed by the Republican Congress would make it a crime a crime to seek the medical care necessary to prevent that pregnancy.

While Mitt Romney did not support Person-hood in 2007 his expressed this thought on meet the press, Romney’s “Political Perspective” In 2007: Life Begins At Conception. Romney: “I believe from a … political perspective that life begins at conception…. I don't pretend to know, if you will, from a theological standpoint when life begins.”

As Mitt Romney evolve as a candidate for President Mr Romney's views continue to shift to the far right in order to gain their support,  Romney was asked if he would support of a dangerous proposal, commonly called a “person-hood amendment,” that could potentially ban common forms of contraception like the birth control pill, as well as prevent a pregnant woman experiencing complications that threaten her life or health to obtain safe abortion care. Said Romney, “absolutely.” [Concord Monitor, 11/9/11]

1 out of every 6 American women has been the victim of an attempted or completed rape in her lifetime (14.8% completed rape; 2.8% attempted rape).

7% of girls in grades 5-8 and 12% of girls in grades 9-12 said they had been sexually abused.

Republican and Tea Party support person-hood

PERSON-HOOD BILL

“A ballot measure going before voters in Mississippi on Nov. 8 would define :- 

The term ‘person’ in the State Constitution to include, "fertilized human eggs" and grant to fertilized eggs the, "legal rights and protections that apply to people". 

• Besides outlawing all abortions with no exceptions for, rape or incest or when a woman's life is in danger, 
• banning any contraception that may prevent implantation of a fertilized egg, including birth control pills, the amendment carries many implications,
•  It could curtail medical research involving embryos, shutter fertility clinics and put doctors in legal jeopardy for providing needed medical care that might endanger a pregnancy. 
• Pregnant women also could become subject to criminal prosecution. 
• A fertilized egg might be eligible to inherit money or be counted when drawing voting districts by population. 
• Numerous laws use the terms '’person’' or ’'people,’' there would be no shortage of unintended consequences… 

This extreme measure would protect zygotes at the expense of all women while creating a legal quagmire -- at least until the courts rule it unconstitutional, as they should.” [New York Times, 10/28/11]

Republican war on women, Legitimate Rape!

"This is not Politics, this is part of the the systematic March by Republicans Party to piece by piece Take away the rights of women returning them to the dark corners of Southern Society and wreck the pro choice movement".

Rep Paul Ryan and Rep Tod Aiken tied by Forcible  Rape!

"If it's a legitimate rape, the female body has ways to try to shut that whole thing down. But let's assume that maybe that didn't work or something. I think there should be some punishment, but the punishment ought to be on the rapist and not attacking the child."

Rep. Todd Akin (R-Mo.), a U.S. Senate candidate, Someone really saying what the Republicans believe. This was one of the very narrow points discussed by Paul Ryan, Todd Aiken and the other 222 republicans who passed the Law redefining Rape.

The intentions of Republicans is to take away the voices of women overturn Roe v wade apply so much pressure that they become fearful and return to the days of second class Citizens Barefooted and pregnant in front of a wooden stove. This is not fear mongering, since the 2010 Elections Republicans in State Houses and in Congress have introduced over 500 pieces of legislation from restricting the right of women to make Family choices from denying them Birth control and Cancer screening to prenatal Care.

What Rep Todd Akin said is part of the discussion of how we got here, these were anecdotes from meetings around the restrictions of, women's rights by kinning pro choice. The Republicans cannot separate themselves from Todd Aiken, Paul Ryan will still be the Republican Vice Presidential Nominee Paul Ryan will still be the symbol of re-defining Rape or re-classifications of Rape as Forcible Rape. If Paul Ryan's Forcible Rape Law were to be adopted, a woman who is a victim of Rape would be a victim twice, once by her attacker and then before a court of law defending whether her attack was forcible or not. Which woman would want to suffer that indignity Twice?.
