"To advance the pro-life cause, we need to work with people who consider themselves pro-choice -- because our task isnt to purge our ranks. It's to grow them," the Wisconsin congressman said at the Susan B. Anthony List gala in Washington, D.C., a group that backs candidates that will work to try and outlaw abortion.
The former GOP vice presidential nominee and current House Budget Chairman told the audience they need to "expand our horizon," but urged them to "stay vigilant" and to work "with patience" and "with good cheer."
"We dont want a country where abortion is simply outlawed," Ryan said. "We want a country where it isnt even considered."
Ryan, who headlined the event, told the group they need to "show the pro-life cause isn't just the cause of the unborn," but a "deep affirmation of human rights."

Abortion causes and human rights do not go hand in hand - they are the antithesis of each other.

Asshole.
There is no way to give "human rights" to a zygote without taking away some rights of the very real human being in which it resides.
