So then you're going to have Akin imply that all women who claim that they became pregnant through rape are lying?

No. Norma McCorvey would be the person to bring perspective to this issue. She admitted the rape story was a lie that she was induced to tell by Sarah Weddington and the other radical Leftists who used McCorvey to radically change American law. (Sound familiar?)

And of course McCorvey would not be "implying" that all women who claimed pregnancy as a result of rape were lying.

But it may take a tiny dose of logic to understand that "some claims are lies" ≠ "all claims are lies."

Actually you made me realize why he would say “legitimate rape”. Still a stupid thing to say, but if you enact exceptions that allow abortion, many people will lie and claim the exception just to get an abortion. So yeah, probably a lot of women would just report a rape so they qualify. Thereby creating a situation where suddenly it appears a lot of women get pregnant after a rape.

No one wants to discuss reality though because we perpetuate the myth of the average woman being like a young Mary Tyler Moore in the Dick Van Dyke show. We have some damn disreputable people in this society, of all genders, etc.

I promise I'll try and find the logic in your proposal.
