What sickening disgusting disgraceful comments I’m seeing on this thread from supposedly God fearing Christian Conservatives who apparently do not value all human life at all. God bless Rep Steve King, for firmly standing up against the murder of all human life and for standing up for their God given Unalienable rights and liberties.

‘No … pearl-clutching “FReepers” worried about “optics” will whine and cry and piss themselves …’

ignoring ‘optics’ is what loses you an election...re Hilary Clinton and the ‘optics’ of dismissing potential voters as deplorables...

This is what happens when people go off-message. Never, ever speak of rape as anything but an evil act that should draw the maximum punishment... period.

That is a new way to view the necessity of rape and incest.

The Catholic lawmaker argued that the circumstances of a baby’s conception does not negate their right to life.


That’s right, but it doesn’t normalize rape.

The correct response is “red herring”.

I’m really beginning to wonder about this guy. Is he an aspiring Joe Biden?

OMG why is our side like this? We have no idea how to articulate anything properly.

Why? Because The New York Times misquoted me?

Steve, if the New York Times misquoted your mangled "white supremacist" comments last January, you should have said so LOUDLY at the time. Why didn't you? While I doubt you were misquoted, you certainly should have recorded the NYT interview to protect yourself. You did not. What can one say about a conservative who trusts in the fairnesss and honesty of the New York Times? Your failure to record the interview was political malpractice.

You complained that your words were taken out of context, but that was not an adequate response. You never explained why you used those specific miserable words.

You might have recovered some of your reputation had you forcefully retracted your reported interview comments and released a correction. That did not happen.

And to think that there was a time when I wanted for you to run for president!

They keep omitting his next statement, conveniently:

“Considering all the wars and all the rapes and pillages that happened throughout all these different nations, I know that I can't say that I was not a part of a product of that."

Which shows that the headline should be "Steve King wonders if HE would exist without rape and incest among his ancestors"

It's a weird question, but NOT offensive at all really. Hundreds of millions of women were raped by conquering armies throughout history.

The key point is: if a woman is raped, does the CHILD deserve the death penalty?

Liberals don't want to debate the RIGHT TO LIFE inherent in all people...so they pretend "King defends rape!!!"

He is somewhat right in the sense that many of our ancestors did disturbing things which led to us, but what kind if an idiotic politician would discuss this?

I (and 8 other people) would not have been born if not for a rapist who impregnated one of my grannies.

Maybe so. And I don’t really know why anyone would say this, but, whether we like it or not, we all have rapists in our family tree. Mathematics and all. Doesn’t justify, excuse or exonerate the act in ANY way.

Steve, you are not helping the situation. Let the experts handle this.

King missed a excellent opportunity to shut up.
