Bullshit. Look at the laws they are trying to pass. Quit lying.

Point to a law being passed that has to do with women secreting anti-baby sauce when they get raped.

Add a couple more:

EVen if it were a couple thousand it wouldn't be "widespread".

Seems like at least 4 thousand agree with him in some way: http://www.akin.org/still-standing

Still not really "widespread" considering how many republicans there are in this country but still pretty sad that even that many support him.

They don't necessarily agree with his ridiculous assertion, but that they stand behind him because he is pro-life.

Sorry, but even Hannity-Limbaugh-Coulter have called for this buffoon to drop out. It's astounding that 4000+ people took their time to support this idiot.

Also, Here's a republican who wonders whether women know what rape even is

I guess this is going to be a daily thing.

Sorry about your repugnant party bro. We don't have to interview the millions of shitty republicans to know that your party is dog crap.

Who f'in cares? Why is this such a big friggin deal?

We had a Russian submarine floating around the Gulf of Mexico for weeks with no response from Obama or much from the media. Now a Republican Senator flaps his gums and all hell breaks loose.

Do you see Liberals making whacked comments like Republicans?

No

It's because Democrats believe in Science, Religious Republicans do not.

Do we need to bring out the comments liberal politicians have made comparing certain republicans to Hitler? Or do you not consider that whacked comments? wait, don't answer that, I think I already know your answer.

Rape victims? And the people that support/care for them? Edit: actually women in general and hopefully men as well.

The very fact that you are asking this really shows how far the GOP has fallen.

yeah, you could make that argument. I'm just trying to put things in perspective.

"Guys it's only a terrible opinion that the GOP shares about rape which is reflected in their legislative efforts, why make a big deal about it you whiny liberals?!!?!?" - CPA

Why does a rape victim care what some dimwitted Senator has to say? It's not like he was saying that they deserved it. I don't agree with the Senator, but to make it this big of deal, then lump us all in is just plain stupid. There are bigger things to be worrying about right now, don't you think?

Because his stupid opinions (which many republicans share) gets translated into legislative actions.

I'm waiting for xJohnx to come in and continue to defend the GOP in light of the conversation i'm having with CPA right now and with more conservatives coming out and inserting their foot in their mouths over this issue.

The existence of your party is indefensible.

Are you really not bright enough to see her point?

Men usually go to war willingly. Women are the innocent victims. Many times they are simply the junk left over from war that too many people don't want to bother with.

You need to buy a ticket to the real world.

When you're one of 100 people who have the ability to propose laws and gets to vote on changes to laws, I think it can be a big deal what you say and believe. You or I saying or doing something stupid has little overall impact on this country. At worst we piss off some friends or embarrass our families. When a Senator holds a remarkably stupid view ... that man can slip clauses into laws!

Now to say this moron's views are widespread is exaggeration (I hope). But the point is correct that his views aren't unique within the GOP. They're not a majority opinion, but they're not exclusive to him either.

you are nuts to think that this would turn into legislative action anytime soon. You are talking about a slippery slope that isn't even on the horizon, and I think that fact that almost all Republican politicians have come out against him, many asking him to step out of the race is indicative of that.

Step back from the ledge Phokus.

Sure, I agree and understand that, but that's not the take of the OP and that is what frustrates me the most. We could easily find similar nonsense on the other side and sometimes it gets posted. The reaction is similar and similarly stupid.

I get what the crazy guy said now. He doesn't believe woman are people. So when he says its impossible to get pregnant from rape, that means men who are raped can't get pregnant. Which is true.

(This is a joke. I do not share my personal believes or truths with this joke. This is just for laugh purposes.)

WTF :rolleyes:. Never heard of the draft huh. Seems to me you didn't learn about the Vietnam war.

Most men go to war, because their leaders decide for them to go to war.

Just be honest you dont care if men get their heads blown off

EDIT: and the reason they are the "junk" left over is that the men are dead.

Uhm, have you seen the anti-abortion bills that republicans have put forth?

Please don't go full retard on us.

I volunteered and got out in '71 asshole. Where were you? I lost friends in that war. How dare you say I don't care. You must be working on a degree as a professional asshole. Your claptrap disgusts me.

You mention 1 war with draftees. Thousands of wars have been fought without them. Go buy a history book.

Probably all Dems hoping he stays in the race, seeing that he likes to sink his own ship and should be easy pickings come November.
