TN state senator: rape just isn’t what it used to be.Last week, after a debate on amending the Tennessee constitution to say that it doesn’t guarantee the right to abortion, state Sen. Doug Henry (D) stood up and reflected on

Rape, ladies and gentlemen, is not today what rape was. Rape, when I was learning these things, was the violation of a chaste woman, against her will, by some party not her spouse. Today it’s simply, "Let’s don’t go forward with this act."

What the hell is this? How do these people seriously get elected to represent the people.

1. Kind of makes ya wish the good senator could experience what millions of women have suffered.
What an ignorant bastard.

3. In other words, you can't "rape" a "whore" or your wife as forcing a sex act on either

4. I used to think the Iraq War was the biggest waste of money ever
but now, unfortunately, I'm keenly aware of the medical procedures that keep this sack of shit breathing.
