JOBS #1 ! , Get your tea party on!
There are those new Heathers in Washington, DC, and they are getting down to the business of Main Street... LASER beamed focused on the too-slow-to-recover US economy. I mean, that is all Speaker Boehner and his band of Robins have said for the last year. " When we are in, your JOB will be job one, the new GOP and all..."Not so fast there, true belivers...
Same song different Congress
From Mother Jones : "Rape is only really rape if it involves force. So says the new House Republican majority as it now moves to change abortion law.
For years, federal laws restricting the use of government funds to pay for abortions have included exemptions for pregnancies resulting from rape or incest. (Another exemption covers pregnancies that could endanger the life of the woman.) But the "No Taxpayer Funding for Abortion Act," a bill with 173 mostly Republican co-sponsors that House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) has dubbed a top priority in the new Congress, contains a provision that would rewrite the rules to limit drastically the definition of rape and incest in these cases.With this legislation, which was introduced last week by Rep. Chris Smith (R-N.J.), Republicans propose that the rape exemption be limited to "forcible rape." This would rule out federal assistance for abortions in many rape cases, including instances of statutory rape, many of which are non-forcible. For example: If a 13-year-old girl is impregnated by a 24-year-old adult, she would no longer qualify to have Medicaid pay for an abortion. ( THE REST )
Get raped ( which I am sure you were asking for, anyway...) get pregnant by your rapist ? You better by God be able to show Paul Ryan some bruises.. and some serious ones at that, tramp......
The gays are not out of the woods either, the SMALLER GOVERNMENT, Get the federal government out of local affairs GOP is starting there attack to get the marriage equality law overturned in Washington , DC. .....
