They shriveled like raisins under the magnification of liberal media memes. Spineless, gutless, unprincipled chickens, intellectually lazy, unwilling to pause and study the meaning and intent of Akins' remarks. How Malkin and Levin et al are counted among them is beyond me. Rove and his ilk, not so much. We do not deserve to live in a free country if we indulge ignorant, lemming-like behavior when it comes to protecting and defending the lives of innocent unborn citizens. Akin's got more principle than the bulk of the population. He ought to be counted as one of the best conservative candidates possible. [He's already planning jails and execution chambers for all those raped women who abort their children! /s]
Mark switched over and got with the program on his Facebook site yesterday, citing DeMint, Santorum, and Gingrich. Palin (at least her C4P site) still won't quit bagging on Akin though.
