Why? (Caution--another Republican idiot talks about rape)

Why can't Republican politicians stop talking about rape? It's just so fucking creepy and wrong.

"The Weekly Standard posted a video of that comment back in December, just days after Black said he was considering a congressional bid. Black sent out an email in response, claiming that he “was not taking a position for or against marital rape," according to Loudoun Progress, a progressive blog."

HE WAS NOT TAKING A POSITION FOR OR AGAINST MARITAL RAPE? Um, numb nuts, how about just saying you're against it? He must be a Neanderthal who thinks that wives are chattel and therefore have no rights.

I am actually nauseated.
