i am pissed, not at the OP, but just that as a country in 2012, we have these fuckers with the audacity to tell me about forcible, legitimate, honest rape.

it is just enough.

The Republicans want to take us back to the '50s, when the women were tucked into the kitchen while the men talked about the weighty issues, like women's health issues (ie hysteria), or how most of the time 'girls' who get raped are 'asking for it.'

Where are they finding these idiots?

Is Akin (perhaps) trying to clear his conscience for something in his past? He sure makes, "Thou protesteth too much!" come to mind.

In fact, all these Republican men that are attacking women's rights seem to be unable to think of anything else. I think they all need some time on the couch with a "legitimate" psychiatrist.

It surely seems that way. We need to keep this posted in bold-face on bill-boards far and wide. Along with Shit Romneys tax evasion problems. Keep beating these fuckers into the ground.

who will not be changing their vote regardless of his absurd statement(s). It will not surprise me to see him take his place among the other right-wing folks in the Senate. I say that because I live in this growing conservative place called Missouri. He also has called for the end of free school lunches for poor kids, the abolition of Medicare and SS, and compared college student loans to "stage 3 cancer". He is wildly popular amongst evangelicals.
