When is rape, not rape? I was completely appalled when I came across this story while reading today. Please read below...
Rape is Rape: Denounce Republicans' Extremist Anti-Choice Legislation
"House Republicans are proposing to drastically narrow the definition of rape that qualifies for health care coverage. H.R. 3 would redefine rape in these cases to only include "forcible rape," a definition that rules out a woman being drugged, children who are victims of statutory rape, and many date rape scenarios."

WOW! That's just insane!
They can just go for it and rename the rape of a prostitute to be called (in-law terms) "Shoplifting" WTF?
I have seen many blogs in google search and I am thinking to create a blog for me also. I just have read the article in some sites to create such thing but in vain. I am not getting it easily. Going to ask one of my friends :)
I don't understand why redefine is needed? btw, thank for sharing.
I am disgusted by this waste of resources and tax payer dollars to push this legislation. Boehner should focus on jobs and improving our economic health.
I think this post is suitable for eveyone who is interested in valuable resources, thanks for sharing, keep up the good work.
Kinda disgusting. I cannot believe this is where our money goes. Very upsetting and I have sent this to several of my friends. Thank you for the info.
I am not sure Jesus would accept this legislation, th Republicans don't think, they react. Women should not be forced to live with their rapist for all their life. It is their body, so they have to make their own choices. Good luck to all women. Your blog is awesome, keep it up.
Come on a rape is a rape....if its non consensual then it is rape. Are the republicans wanting to drug and rape someone or what?
What kind of hillbillies can propose this? I am sure this wont pass in congress.
We need to review our morals. Rape is increasing because of moral breakdown.
This is really crazy and absolutly sad.
I certainly agree to this interesting post. So glad to have come across on reading this informative reviews.
I do agree that this is pretty disgusting. Rape is rape, and there is no other way around it. I can't believe that they would do this.
Thanks for the post. I do agree as well. Thanks for sharing the info!
Oh God...its so ugly.
Amazing blog and very interesting stuff you got here! I definitely learned a lot from reading through some of your earlier posts as well and decided to drop a comment on this one!
One of the most difficult crimes to prosecute and now they want to make it harder. If it were men getting raped, you can bet there would be much stronger legislation in place
How can they redefine rape.. rape is rape, and period .. what's the idea ?
I cant believe this. Rape is rape no matter what way you look at it. Obviously the republicans arnt thinking about how a female feels the rest of her life after she has been violated. Thanks for the article
Great post! I am actually getting ready to across this information, is very helpful my friend. Also great blog here with all of the valuable information you have. Keep up the good work you are doing here.
