(3,251 posts)77. "Rape is just another Method of Contraception".. Paul Lyin Ryan 8/24/12
This is the kind of thing that gets us in trouble. Ryan did not say that rape is just another method of contraception. He said the following. I also don't like the "Rape fans" sign. I think it's a hit below the belt, and not true of the vast majority of Republicans. I say we are better than this ... much better.
Im very proud of my pro-life record, and Ive always adopted the idea that, the position that the method of conception doesnt change the definition of life, Ryan explained. But lets remember, Im joining the Romney-Ryan ticket. And the president makes policy.
And the president, in this case the future President Mitt Romney, has exceptions for rape, incest, and life of the mother, which is a vast improvement of where we are right now.

Yeah, it was bad phrasing. I don't think they're "rape fans" either - just clueless on the issue.

"People who think rape doesn't cause conception and oppose abortion in cases of rape" didn't fit.

I'm too new to post my own thread so, here. I think many of them change names about every 3-4 days.
