Paul Ryan, the presumptive Republican vice presidential candidate under Romney, has taken a sharply conservative view on abortion in the past, saying he opposes it in all circumstances except to save the life of the mother — a position that would outlaw abortion even in cases of rape or incest.



Asked about an abortion bill he cosponsored along with Rep. Todd Akin (R-Mo.), Ryan said he was among 251 supporters of the bill.

I believe the other 250 morons voted for the bill once the word 'forcible' was removed.
 
Ryan is surely aching to talk about something other than Akin.


But the outrage set off by the Republicans’ Senate nominee in Missouri has consumed the political world.


It has been particularly harmful to Ryan, who has served for more than a decade with Akin, recently hailing him as “a great asset” on Ryan’s budget committee and an example of “exactly the kind of leadership America needs.”


More problematic in this situation: Ryan has the same antiabortion position as Akin — no exceptions — and some of the nearly 40 abortion bills he has co-sponsored have provided no exemption for rape victims.
