RE: Missouri Republican claims 'legitimate rape' rarely results in pregnancy
There is no way a baby that is that far along has that much room in the womb either... just sayin'.
All 3 of my kids were out of room by that point, and they were each 7lbs 4 oz... not exactly big babies.

It was Mach.... Not Max..............
and that baby has the DNA of her attacker. Some people actually believe alot of your behavior is genetically predetermined. You might think that way. You might not. You might make one choice. Others may make a different CHOICE!
This is an ABSOLUTE CANDIDATE KILLER but thankfully it shows what some believe.
Akin didn't mis speak here folks. He thinks a child concieved in rape should have the chance at life. Others disagree. he wants to take that choice away.
The disgusting part to me is the "legitimate" part. If she was "really" raped she wouldn't of gotten knocked up. It's LOONEY TUNES CIRCUSVILLE TIME.

Some people who are "legitly" raped would want to end that pregnancy way way before that picture BIE.

RE: Missouri Republican claims 'legitimate rape' rarely results in pregnancy
Todd Akin: "No, you!"
http://2012.talkingpointsmemo.com/2012/0...ut.php?m=1
Quote:Akin Camp To Claire McCaskill: Why Don’t You Drop Out?
Todd Akin’s campaign advised Democrats on Thursday that their best hope of beating him would be to demand Sen. Claire McCaskill (D-MO) step down as a candidate.
His comments came after pollster Rasmussen released a survey showing him trailing McCaskill 48 percent to 38 percent in Missouri’s Senate race, a stunning implosion, if accurate, given that he led all polls before his “legitimate rape” remarks led GOP leaders to disown his campaign. Akin’s campaign, however, believes the poll is encouraging news.
“The fact that Claire McCaskill is only polling at 48 percent after 72 hours of constant negative attacks on Todd Akin shows just how weak she is,” Perry Akin, the congressman’s campaign manager and son, said in a statement Thursday. “If she can’t break 50 percent after a week like this, Democrats should ask Claire to step down. Todd is in this race to win; we will close this gap and win in November with the support of the grassroots in Missouri and across America.”
McCaskill, whose seat would be on much, much shakier ground if Akin were to drop out now, dismissed the Rasmussen poll’s significance and even implied the pollster was deliberately inflating her numbers to pressure Akin.
“Rasmussen poll made me laugh out loud,” she said on Twitter. “If anyone believes that, I just turned 29. Sneaky stuff.”

BIE...... Do you understand the predicament you put others in? or is it more of a principled stand with you. Are you a one issue voter? I know good people who vote on this issue alone. Do you ever feel used by the GOP? Many on the right "LOVE" this wedge issue thinking it never has a chance at seeing the light of day. Those are the guy's who are pissed right now.
What a dynamic.

I don't care what your position on the issue is, this was a mind-numbingly stupid thing to say. And I don't want mind-numbingly stupid people representing me in Washington, regardless of whether I agree with them on the issues or not.

Isn't there a morning after pill? They are almost free. C'mon, women know how to take care of themselves. They have been doing it for thousands and thousands of years. The dims don't give women enough credit. Dims think women are the submissive little unintelligent beings that need help for everything. Well that is insulting to most women. They know what the f*uck is up.

To be fair, the far left treats men the same way.
None of us can be trusted not to hurt ourselves.

First of all calling it a one issue voter is like saying that if *any one* has a deal breaker issue they are a one issue voter..
Quote:Bob: Sure I agree with candidate A on 99% of the issues but he wants to re-institute slavery... I just cant vote for that
Tom: You're such a one issue voter..
And, mister clueless, I'm not even voting GOP in this election but seriously thanks for playing. The irony that someone who's voting for a guy that is running on "hate the white, rich, and powerful" talking about wedge issues is not lost on me..

If his hubris lets him stay in the race, McCaskill will kill him.
Shame, too. This was a winnable seat. Obama should go by a lottery ticket.
Smaug is quickly becoming one of my favorite posters. Level-headed, reasonable, able to articulate his point of view without saying "you're an idiot". Smaug, I'm gonna buy you a beer after UAB loses to UCF this year.

As of now they are available. With people like Ryan and Akin get their way, they would be off the market as would birth control.
