Excuse me, but I am a Physician ,and what you and Bryan Fischer say is wrong. Care to compare our credentials ?
You and Akin should think before you speak.

If you will GOOGLE Search and also check the Todd Akin threads on FR

You will discover that this crapola is also an old NAZI propaganda claim

What we really need is to be tied to that -

Incidentally - FNC just announced that Todd Akin says he is staying in the race - even after talking to former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee

Ice the hemlock cocktails kids -

Obama got a bargain at only $2,000,000 for a Senate seat.....

You have no support for your conjecture.
“Extremely rare” event

“In Mecklenburg’s original article, he wrote that pregnancy resulting from rape “is extremely rare” and cited as an example the city of Buffalo, N.Y., which had not seen “a pregnancy from confirmed rape in over 30 years.” Other cities — Chicago, Washington, St. Paul — also had experienced lengthy spells without a rape-caused pregnancy, Mecklenburg wrote.

The reasons were numerous: Not all rapes result in “a completed act of intercourse,” Mecklenburg wrote, adding it was “improbable” a rape would occur “on the 1-2 days of the month in which the woman would be fertile.”

Mecklenburg’s third reason seems to have been picked up by Akin. A woman exposed to the trauma of rape, Mecklenburg wrote, “will not ovulate even if she is ‘scheduled’ to.”

Now there where is your source. Where is your data. I think you are a pro abortion person seeking rationalization for the killing of the unborn. That is what this is about—RIGHT?

I honestly don’t even think you know what you’re arguing here.

Nobody denies that pregnancy as a result of rape is rare, heck regular pregnancy isn’t even all that easy as some couples have to really go at it for awhile to be successful. What people took issue with is Akin’s claim of “legitimate rape”, and his weird kooky mention of “woman’s bodies have a way to shut that whole thing down”, which was absolutely beyond idiotic.

As far as studies, the most comprehensive study on rape victims and pregnancy was done in 1996.

“A 1996 study in the Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, which looked at 4,000 American women over three years, found that “rape-related pregnancy occurs with significant frequency.”

Specifically, the researchers found that among sexual assault victims between the age of 12 and 45, there was a 5 percent chance of pregnancy each time they were raped.

This means that “among adult women, an estimated 32,101 pregnancies result from rape each year,” they wrote.

“Akins premise on rape pregnancy is a scientific fact”

Where did you learn biology? No one gets pregnant before ovulation.

With respect. Please show me the scientific data to support you anecdotal justification for the killing of an unborn innocent baby because the mother was “raped”. How many of you Republicrats are pro abortion. Akin stays put. Thank GOD!!

Well, Polls this morning indicated he is still 11 points on Claire.

FALSE. He's up +1 in a poll that over-sampled Republicans by 9. Correcting for that, he's down 7-10 points now.

Akin is ROADKILL.

“Everyone on Free Republic that claims Todd Akin should still run - and that he will still win....

Should now promise to drink a gallon of anti-freeze if Akins runs - and loses”

No have them come on here and explain why not taking the senate is not that important, and that repealing Obamacare isn’t that important either and it was all worth the effort of standing up for so called conservative values (as they define them).

And that poll oversampled Republicans by 9. It's from PPP, the Democrat polling outfit which is why they used a model that makes it seem like he's not toast.

When you use prior turn out numbers or just even split, Aiken is behind McCaskill 7-10 points now.

Like the old saying....”If the facts are on your side, argue the facts, if the law is on your side, argue the law, if neither the facts nor the law are on your side, pound the table.”

Mary, you my dear are pounding the table awfully loud and making quite a spectacle of yourself.

Can you point me to a poll that was taken since Sunday that supports what you’re saying?

Its all on the table, in plain sight. Some just refuse to look. The seat was all ours to take, and now it is gone because of one egotistical politician.
