Okay, I didn't see that Oprah episode (I'm don't watch afternoon talk shows, period) but of course I heard about Diaz's comment. Maybe I'm dense, but I don't understand what she means? Unless she's saying that Bush would literally undo rape laws, can anyone clue me in?
"Unless she's saying that Bush would literally undo rape laws, can anyone clue me in?"
I think, and I could be wrong, that if you see the full quote from Diaz it becomes clear (through her murky liberal thinking) that she is equating a hypothetical inabiltiy to get an abortion with rape. I think she said something like: if Bush wins women will lose their right to their own bodies, therefore if you support Bush you support rape.
I know, I know, it STILL doesn't make sense, but it makes about as much sense as anything any of these other dopes said.
