I don’t care what his party is, he’s too stupid to have any political position with the possible exception of VP in a Democrat Administration.
Well, there goes MO. Those who find Obama acceptable over Romney and believe there will be 67 votes to convict in an impeachment trial may have just lost one. Yeah, as if the GOP would get 67 Senators.
“Legitimate rape” is an oxymoron, like something Joe Biden would say.
Is it OK to ask what “legitimate rape” is ???
Legitimate rape?
Sometimes I think the GOP just deserves to lose. This is one of those sometimes.
Wow what a dips__t.
Remember Palin wanted Steelman. The Huckabee faction wanted Aiken. Enough said.
This will be all over the news, all week.
Republicans claim rape victims don’t get pregnant. Republicans claim some rape is legitimate?
This guy just blew it all.
He should ask Whoopie Goldberg. She knows the difference between rape and rape-rape.
Dosing a 13 yo with Quaalude and champagne then penetrating her multiple times and places is not rape-rape.
Stupid comment, probably means liberal stooge Claire McCaskill retains her seat.
Is this really the best we could do in Missouri?
Aikin’s been a busy guy shooting himself in the foot. He came out against subsidized school lunches and also called student loans a cancer. McCaskell said she wanted to run against him and it’s obvious why she did. Aikin is about the only person out there who can make Joe Biden look good in the public speaking arena.
The words “legitimate” and “rape” do not belong together. There is s3x (legitimate) and rape, which is NEVER legitimate. What was that dufus thinking? Unless he/she was misquoted he/she deserves to lose.
How very unPC of him! Hang him form the nearest tree.
Unelectable.
Who’s on deck?
A little Googling finds “the adult pregnancy rate associated with rape is estimated to be 4.7%.” Another study by an M.D. suggests that the physical trauma associated with rape would make conception less likely.
In terms of what “legitimate rape” means, only Todd Can explain that. I’m sure he would agree it was not the best choice of words since it is confusing. He could be comparing to statutory rape (which is not necessarily a physically violent act) or to a false accusation of rape. What he most likely meant to say was “violent rape” because that is the kind that would result in direct emotional and physical trauma that some doctors seem to say impedes the hormonal balance that helps cause a pregnancy.
I don’t believe in attacking Todd for one gaffe when he qualified his statement, did not say it was an absolute fact 100% of the time, and his ultimate point was a truthful, spiritual one. The child resulting from a rape is innocent and should not be punished with the termination of his or her life.
More stuff from the left. They don’t think like the rest of us.
The man makes several good points in that short clip.
Too bad we FReepers are too smart to hear them.
Why, oh WHY do these people get off message and say such stupid sh*t?????
“Legitimate rape???”
Akin just killed the GOP`s chances of taking that seat from McCaskill.. and very likely with it, any hope of taking the Senate majority back from the dems. There are many fine Americans with backing from the Tea Party, but THIS is what voters will remember in less than three months.
What a moron
Oh, even though this guy apparently has NO clue just how stupid his words are, I will still vote for him over the nursing home queen. Claire is as ruthless as the reader of that teleprompter in the oval office.
I did NOT vote for him in the primary, but, I want Clarie to go back to tending her nursing home empire.
If he said this, he deserves to lose!
