Well technically I suppose it is, but this stance is rather gross..

"Paul Ryan Said Something That Should Force Him Off the Ticket, But You Probably Didn't Hear About It

Last week, Paul Ryan gave an interview in which, defending his position that there should be no excuses for abortion, he referred to rape as a "method of conception."

Wow, right? Talk about a benign euphemism. Rape -- RAPE! -- is now a "method of conception." You know, like love-making, just without the love.

There could be no greater testament to the utter abdication of responsibility by what passes for a "news" media in America in 2012 than that, despite the grotesquerie of this cavalierly callous comment, chances are better than good that this is the first you're hearing of it.

Here, watch it -- and try to figure out why this has gotten NO MAINSTREAM MEDIA play (not even here at the Huffington Post) despite it being, to my mind, a far more offensive remark than Todd Akin's imbecilic blurt of last weekend. What, are we tired of stupid remarks about rape now, so Ryan gets a free pass?
Given the demands for Akin's resignation from a mere Senate race when his musings on "legitimate rape" were publicized, what do you imagine the reaction would be if people were as familiar with VP wannabe Ryan's stunning statement? Might there be a cacophony of outrage? Might there be calls for his resignation from the ticket? Might there be a focus on how fundamentally oblivious these people who would make our laws are to not just women's but humans' rights and dignity? Sure, there might, but then of course people would have to have heard about it.

According to the man who would be the proverbial heartbeat away from the White House, and who in any event would -- given Romney's utter hollowness -- have an inordinate influence on the judicial appointments that will determine how much freedom our children get to live under, RAPE = "METHOD OF CONCEPTION." And yet, unless you're a frequenter of one of a dozen or so lefty blogs -- or my friend on Facebook -- you probably knew nothing about it.
I truly despair for the country my 14-year-old daughter is inheriting. That a remark this intensely revealing of the danger posed by this ticket can go basically unreported is as nauseating to me as the quote itself.

If he got raped in the asshole I would call it gay love by mis-adventure.

Sick bastard. What an awful, vulgar statement to make. I'd love to set a load of rape victims on him

Yeah, what about male rape??? What's his definition of that?

He calls male rape "practice conception"

What he said is this -- "The method of conception doesn't change the definition of life."

By the way -- what's with his haircut. It looks better on boys and teens than on a grown man. Makes me want to run my sheep shearing razor through it.

That's the attitude at the base of the Republican party.

Anything happens to Romney as President, and this guy would take over!

Watching US news and shows makes me aware of just how many total fuck-wits there are in positions of authority in the USA.

How the fuck did this country ever get to be a world superpower with so many cretins at the helm?

Just listen to the moronic kindergarten level insults and rhetoric they come out with on 'discussion' programs and you'll see what I mean.
