Another Milepost On The Road To Oblivion

If you look up the term "projection" in the dictionary, you'll find this statement from GOP Rep. Paul Ryan.

“What we’re getting from the White House on this conscience issue, it’s not an issue about contraception, it’s an issue that reveals a political philosophy the president is showing that basically treats our constitutional rights as if they were revocable privileges from our government, not inalienable rights from our creator.” said Ryan on NBC’s Meet the Press.


We’re seeing this new government activism, paternalistic, arrogant, political philosophy that puts new government-granted rights in the way of our constitutional rights.”

“That’s really not about contraception,” said Ryan of the mandate. “It’s about violating our first amendment rights to religious freedom and conscience.”

It would be hysterical if anyone in the Village would call Paul Ryan out on such complete nonsense, especially since Ryan's party thinks forcing women to go through trans-vaginal ultrasound procedures is completely okay, not to mention the whole "Obama is arrogant" dog whistle again.  Sadly, Fluffy here remains silent.

The arrogance is of course is Paul Ryan deciding what tens of millions of American women can and cannot do with their bodies.  The Republicans are just foul.
