I find it amazing that I've posted literally dozens of statements from doctors, even Christian-based doctors, stating how wrong Akin was and people are still pulling out random articles that don't apply or quack doctors like Willke who have no credibility in medical science.

Either that or "well its that liberal science and liberal doctors." Funny me, when going through college majoring in biology, my science classes were the most straightforward and least-politicized.

I really hope these people don't go to "those liberal doctors" when they have a stroke, after all that would be hypocrisy, forgetting for a moment just how many conservatives there are in the healthcare field.

these people are hopeless. They are just digging a deeper hole. They want to move on and forget what Akin said, and they then come up with pseudo science to then BACK UP what he said

You mean a leader of the prolife movement whose endorsement Romney sought and received for his 2008 run.

<>I find it amazing that I’ve posted literally dozens of statements from doctors<>

Perhaps these doctor are not speaking from personal experience but were influenced to make those statements by a flawed study.

After all it all depends upon the meaning of the word “rare” and where a certain 32,100 rape/pregnancy figure came from, doesn’t it???

Perhaps the poster below can set you and these physicians straight on the matter:

“This study suffers from a number of flaws. It is based on telephonic surveys, not medical or police records. The n of 34 is an extremely small sample size on which to be basing any kind of conclusions. The description that most of the victims were adolescents who knew their attackers suggests to me that many of them were involved in statutory rape (in which case it may have been consensual, but was rape under legal definition)...”
