Republican 2012 Platform: No Exception for Rape
The Republican platform committee approved an "abortion plank" that rejects exemptions for rape, incest or even to save the life of the mother.

Let's hope we see that happen. The Republicans have shown themselves to be hostile to women's rights on too many fronts.
