For blowing any chance of winning the Missouri senate seat over Clair McCaskill aND likely delivering Missouri into Obama's hand. Four more years of Obama coming up....

I am ashamed of the republicans for limiting my freedoms. I am ashamed of the democrats making me pay for it.

This is not about my beliefs about abortion.

I am not going to be dragged into this issue. This is a minor issue if all the great things in America are working. BUT THEY ARE NOT WORKING. People are hurting big time. I won't even blame Obama. It has been a slow erosion.

American values have become so skewed, that this is more important than helping our country into the next century.

We have very few leaders with the vision to remember our history. :(

This post is intended to make you think, not just react. This guy really put his own personal values way ahead of mine..... FREEDOM!!!!. :evil:

"I feel sorry for those who were illegitimately raped.. no love for them"

Is that what he actually said and meant? Some are not legitimately raped. They lie and press charges anyway. Is that what Akin meant?

His comment about women's bodies stopping pregnancy by internal factors is an unproven concept. Akin is not the first person to mention it.

If a Democrat said something like this the MSM would not even cover it, or give him a total pass if they did cover it. HOW many women came forward to accuse Clinton of everything from sexual harrassment to rape, and HOW much did the MSM dig in to investigate?

Akin is not the brightest bulb in the closet for sure, but this is just a desperate attempt by the Obamamedia to control the news cycle and take focus off Obama's train wreck presidency.

After all, Biden is VP. Shall we make a list of the completely ignorant things that man has stated in his whole career in politics?

Really? That's how you defend someone who makes a stupid mistake? Biden said this or Clinton did that? Man up; the media did not make up this story, it came from Akin himself. There is no such thing as Obamamedia or liberal press; they're just people bringing you the news. Women are under attack by the Republicans and believe me there will be backlash and a price to pay for this nonsense.

I really was just trying to poke fun with a political thread, but in all frankness, I wasn't poking fun at rape, I was poking fun at how some idiot categorizes different levels of rape.

I've dealt first-hand with the after-effects of rape (a loved one), and it's DEVASTATING to that person, and often times their closest loved ones, as we end up dealing with the PTSD and other mental ailments that result.

This culture of blaming the victim and categorizing different "legitimacy" of rape is appalling. It's been pretty obvious that some politicians are dead-set on reversing women's rights. If you've looked at the transcripts from rape cases in the last 10 years, you will find overwhelmingly that the rape victims often get accused of "asking for it" by proxy and end up spending more time proving they weren't asking for it than proving the rape itself..

I usually am the first person to bitch about women.. but I will defend them to the bitter end when it comes to them being victimized.

Yeah, people like mike tyson, bill clinton, they do attract the psycho fake-victim, but that's more the exception- I don't know what to say to that except that maybe people in the spotlight should be more careful about who they bang.. get a consent form first or something .. there's an idea.. get that sh*t notarized too.

I beg to differ about liberal media. In this nation the media is biased when it comes to Obamma. They are even reporting trumped statistics as to who is in the lead. The Obamma media and liberals are the one making the big deal out of this "one mans statement"! You liberals want america and the poor to believe the Republican party is against them! That is the REALITY I see going with the press! This is going to be the MUDDIEST election in a LONG time because Obamma can't run on his record!

Once Again, you prove yourself to be completely ignorant. Its a FACT that Washington controls the major press. Wherever they cannot regulate press release in keeping with freedom of speech, they make up for by paying exorbitant amounts of money to press entities to play down or play up events. Duh! This happens every day... So YEAH it happens to be call Obamamedia today. Tomorrow it'll be called Romney Media

maybe everybody will realize all Republicans have the same mindset of AKIN to some degree.. AKIN wants to abolish student loans too, said they are a cancer on society.. AKIN is not restricted to just one dumb idea, but many dumb and unfair/unpractical ideas.. I see the anti-AKIN commercials on tv daily telling the facts about the guy..

It's a fact? Show me the link that backs up this "fact". If that were true, why is there a Fox News? Wouldn't they just shut those morons down? Why is the right so paranoid when it comes to the news? Could it be that you just don't like what is reported? Talk about ignorant, you wear the crown. Or should I say dunce cap?

I don't know what you're objecting to, that article looks fair and balanced.
