Obama 'Redefined Rape' in January 2012


Posted: Aug 23, 2012

Ryan is being falsely accused of this, but any blame goes to Obama: http://www.nytimes.com/2012/01/07/us/politics/federal-crime-statistics-to-expand-rape-definition.html http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Government/2012/08/23/Actually-It-Was-Obama-Who-Redefined-Rape;

Laughing so hard, - I can barely peck out this post.

Somehow, I don't think broadening the def to include scores of new victim groups customarily excluded from arcane GOP myopic concepts is going to be the smoking gun that's gonna help Ryan of his pickle, or his party, who has just recently enshrined the Akin Amendment in the party platform.

After adding a fourth ring to the Tampa circus venue next week to accommodate Trump's gigantic ego and his very, very important role, I think they should consider a fifth. It should be dedicated to contortionists and folks jumping through hoops trying to hang this thing on the president.

neither link supported the OPs thesis - (thanks for asking)...sm

The OP suggests that Obama redefined rape in the same way Todd Akin did. This couldn't be farther from the truth. Obama broadened a narrow definition of rape to include forms of sexual assault other than female vaginal penetration.

I personally think that 1) willful misuse of information is weak, and 2) lack of comprehension is a shame. Not sure which was more at play here for the OP.

President Obama took credit in 2012 for withdrawing all troops from Iraq. Today he said something different.
