We all know what happened.

Legislation was working its way through the house regarding what Medicaid would fund. The legislation read that Medicaid funds would cover abortions if the woman was raped.

THEN, several Republicans--INCLUDING PAUL RYAN--co-sponsored a bill that changed the wording of the aforementioned bill.

The only change was that "rape" was now changed to "forcible rape."

Ok mother fuckers (and I don't say mother fuckers very often), what did you mean by "forcible rape." You obviously see a very clear difference between rape and "forcible rape" because you authored, introduced and co-sponsored legislation that ONLY made that specific change.

And Paul Ryan--you sniveling piece of shit. A soundbyte isn't going to get out out of this.

We demand answers!

These people cannot continue to behave like psychopathic brutes and redefine rape behind closed doors. You SERVE US!

Paul Ryan should be held to account and he should be asked to define "forcible rape" and explain how it differs from rape--EVERY DAMN DAY until he answers.

Oh so NOW he doesn't want to parse the meaning.... riderinthestorm Aug 2012 #1
