The news media use abortion like a sledge hammer.

Male Republican candidates sometimes fail to properly express themselves and then they’re dumped on by party members, which is doubly STUPID and self defeating.

There is nothing wrong with Mourdocks beliefs. Whts important to note is that he was emotional when answering the question during the debate. That influenced his answer and choice of words. He clarified his personal beliefs the following day. His statements were consistent to wht he has believed all along.

The left jumped all over this and shows who they are and what they believe. A fetus can’t vote for them neither can it donate money therefore it is worthless to them. The dems are showing how ghoulish they really are.

What he said:

“I struggled with it myself for a long time,” he said, “but I came to realize that life is that gift from God. And I think even when life begins in that horrible situation of rape, that it is something that God intended to happen.”

What he meant to say: (and everyone knows he meant)

“I struggled with it myself for a long time,” he said, “but I came to realize that life is that gift from God. And I think even when life begins in that horrible situation of rape, that it is something that God intended to happen the life is still a gift from God."

Sounds like good Catholic thought. But where are is the support from those Bishops who have been quick to the political front this year?

Democrats think all babies who result from rape should be executed. Having known two people who began life in this tragic way, but who have become wonderful human beings, I know that God can grant his blessing to those whose mothers did not kill them for someone else’s crime.

Quinn brings up a good point and addresses it towards pro-lifers but fails to similarly address it to pro-choicers. She said that if life is sacred from conception then allowing a fetus to be killed because of the way in which it was conceived is no different than allowing a 2-year-old to be killed because of the way in which it was conceived.

She needs to bring up the same point to pro-choicers and ask them if they support a woman’s right to kill a 2-year-old because of the way that child was conceived.

Quinn’s whole point seems to be that in order to get the vote of women, you have to approve child-killing. And it’s a valid point which the women of this country need to answer. To get the women’s vote, does a politician have to condone child-killing?

If so, that is a very sad indictment of women. Period.

I support Mourdock like I did for Todd Akin.

I do wonder, why a lot of the PhonyCons who tried to force out Akin....have no problems with supporting Mourdock? Is it the Akin was a super-solid conservative...and Mourdock really is not? Being more conservative than Dick Lugar is not exactly an Earth-shattering development

Just sent him ANOTHER $100

This is pretty remarkable. First we have the Post publishing this column; An appeal to America’s heart by Richard Gerson that pretty much says the Mahdi is showing himself to be a small minded and petty jerk as opposed to Romney's calm, competent presidential posture. Now Ben Bradlee’s wife basically says that the unspeakable truth, pro-choice means pro-infanticide and that many woman who are the biological source of life have embraced a death cult. Pigs must be circling the Capitol building in squadron formation today.

Not only is this going to loom over mourdock’s head until election day, it also legitimizes the media whores reopening akin’s chapter on rape.

Maybe there is a lurking Bradley effect that will let them squeak by, but good money is on them paying for their stupidity.

The whole notion that anything good can come from rape is going to be lost on the mealy middle and most women voters. Parsing words and amplifying what they “really meant” will not unscrew their own screwing.

These two knuckle heads may have to learn the hard way.
