The Devil Inside Paul Ryan and Todd Akin’s Redefinition of Rape

----------------------------

You have to wonder why Ryan and Akin et al aren’t chasing men down to force them to stop running away from their born children with no repercussions. But then, the ever-present threat of abandonment and financial ruin is a great way to keep women in line. Force her to have her rapists baby, branding her as someone who must have wanted it or she wouldn’t be pregnant ‘cuz the female body kills sperm she doesn’t want, and then leave her financially destitute, while cutting social safety net programs for children as Ryan has voted to do consistently.

Paul Ryan lost me at hello. I don’t understand his idea of morality and I don’t see him as someone honest enough to find compromise or workable solutions. Instead, I see someone inflicting his emotional damage onto the population at large, and cherry picking his church doctrine to do it. It’s no different than Sharia Law to me.

And I’m not alone in this, for Priests and Nuns have admonished him for what they call his “immoral budget”. This is not a man who cares about our children, so he can’t try to redefine rape under the guise of caring about our babies.

The devil inside Paul Ryan has a louder voice than the angel. Dark forces and unresolved trauma dictate his policy on women and children. He knows what it’s like to be vulnerable; Ryan used Social Security benefits to his own betterment and security as a teenager and young man. But now, in what appears to be projected self-loathing (another common trait of authoritarian conservatism is the hatred of the weak), he viscerally despises anyone who needs protection, and goes out of his way to strip those protections away from them, finding new ways to brand them as unworthy of saving.

There will be no honest discussion about how to best reduce abortions with Paul Ryan, because the issue is not really about abortion. The issue is a pervasive sickness of mind and heart that makes him need to subjugate and belittle the vulnerable. Yesterday, I tweeted that having Republicans like Todd Akin in charge of anything is “legitimate rape”. The same goes for Paul Ryan.

And no, I won’t be retracting this opinion, until or unless Paul Ryan proves through legislative action that he cares about the family, the unwed mothers, the starving children and the vulnerable among us. If he presumes to have the right to dictate what rape is and who is worthy of protection in our society, then I presume to have the right to expose the devil behind his moral inconsistencies.

Paul Ryan stood proudly with Todd Akin when the eyes of the nation were not upon him. Now he is trying to run away from his record, and yet, his record is exactly why Mitt Romney picked him – to appease the conservative base.
