Paul Ryan: Ban some birth control pills


* Did you know that Paul Ryan was a cosponsor of a bill that would force women to undergo a vaginal ultrasound before they could have an abortion?   MSNBC's Rachel Maddow explained Paul Ryan's far right, bizarre, conservative views and actions regarding women's health: http://tinyurl.com/9lcv3dg (h/t RH Reality Check)  

Paul Ryan is against abortion, even in incidents of rape and incest, and has pushed the idea of banning some birth control pills (LINK).

* Wasn't it amazing that when Mitt Romney came to Ohio yesterday, the Ohio Republican Party could only gather up their regular, rich white men to speak?  These fat cat male Republicans support --- tax cuts for the wealthy, restricting women's rights, blocking your right to vote, giving tax breaks to companies that are their pals, keeping most of their tax returns secret (Romney and Kasich), throwing the poor into the street, de-funding public education, letting corporations run charter schools and make money off of the education of children, cutting the SNAP program (food stamps for poor) taking Grandma's Medicare and Social Security, blaming teachers/firefighters/police/nurses/state employees for the country's economic problems, cutting college grants, etc.

Republicans are pushing an economic plan to raise middle class taxes and give millionaires more tax cuts?  How can any sane person support this?

(Romney and Kasich have a lot in common. Romney ran Bain Capital, and Kasich was a vice President at Lehman Brothers.)

* Does anyone else think that John Sununu is full of something?
