Snatching defeat from the jaws of victory.. a longstanding GoP tradition rears its ugly head .. or just so much kabibble over words.. which according to the DEms and complicit media, doesn’t really matter when they say stupid things.
Get rid of Akin and put the Tea Party guy who lost the primary in.
Akin is just the sort of target we don’t need to give to the Dems.
Cut the guy loose.
I still have no doubt the GOP will win back the Senate but things like this doesn't help. The Rats are almost guaranteed to overplay their hand on this one.
Yeah - cause Obama’s sock puppet McCaskill has never said anything stupid or offensive.
Well,at least he’s not a witch!
Does the Party have any ability to remove the winner of the primary if he does not resign?
How could he not have had a clear, rehearsed answer for this question?
He’s an idiot.
“Akins opponent, incumbent Democratic Sen. Claire McCaskill “
Just a coincidence, I assure you.
Can folks please call and urge him to drop out?
I called the Republican Senatorial committee, the RNC, the MO GOP Party, Akins DC office (the local offices aren’t answering or taking messages). I also call the two co-chairs of the MO Republican Committee (different from the party and the ones who would actually chose a replacement).
This has the potential to hurt the ticket from top to bottom, it could be “maccacca” x infinity.
Malkin is right, the guy is not ready for prime time. He could have said he was opposed to abortion in all cases except life of the mother, he could have said that in a dignified way. But no, he uses the word “legitimate” and “rape” in the same sentence and acts like no woman ever got pregnant from being raped. Well, I guess he doesn’t go to too many pro-life rallies, because there are always women like that there, telling their courageous stories. Somehow this dolt managed to insult them too.
PLEASE CALL AND TELL HIM TO GET OUT! TODAY!
Thank you!
yet Elizabeth “Biggie HaHa” Warren, continues to be in her race......
It's not just that he's a complete and ignorant fool, he has betrayed his party and his country by handing a senate seat to the dark side.
Akin, listen up. There is no coming back from this.
Am-scray!
Now.
.
You have to wonder how many other republicans are in politics who are this stupid.
the female body has ways to try to shut that whole thing down.
That is without doubt the most stupid statement I ever heard, why didn’t the stupid basket just tell women to get out a coat hanger.,
He needs to get out of the way and let someone else run.
It’s another Macaca Moment - meaningless in itself, but with relentless media massaging it becomes a Tipping Point for making the GOP candidate Unacceptable.
Is Akin a RINO?
Obama made a surprise visit to WH press room(on now). First question from the presstitutes asked him if he thought all republicans thought like Akin. I just shook my head. Akin needs to go now.
Akin stepped into a trap here and I'll even go so far as to say he should quit for the sake of the GOP winning this election.
But he was not wrong. The 5% pregnant conclusion for rape-related pregnancies is total BS.
The most efficient way to achieve pregnancy is for the woman to lie on her back, buttocks elevated by pillows or rolled towels, legs spread wide apart. Her man enters from the top with gentle but repeated thrusting. This position is efficient for a number of reasons including the following:
My wife and I discovered this as our preferred position many years ago. Totally wonder and ecstatic for you younger people who haven't tried it. Definitely, give it a try as this country could use a lot more baby Freepers.
If we are at the national average for married couples who have intercourse roughly twice a week (and it was way closer to twice a day during our early years of marriage), this means we've had intercourse at least 3,000 times, most of it in the preferred position described.
This means Mrs. Vigilanteman should have been pregnant 3000 x 5% or 150 times. The actual result: three times or 0.1%. This is using the most efficient position most of the time with consensual and relaxed sexual intercourse.
The details may be different for other couples, but I doubt that the actual results are all that different. Do we really want to start a survey thread to check this math?
Akin has made a gaffe that no Republican candidate can ever recover from. Yes, if he was a Democrat he would get a pass. A Democrat can say just about anything and the lamestream media will provide cover. It isn’t fair, but life isn’t fair.
It doesn’t matter how good of a candidate Akin might have been. He is now toast. If he does not step down, then the Democrat will win the seat.
Plus, Akin will pull down conservative candidates all over the country. Every Democrat running for any office in the U.S. will be running ads with Akin as the poster child for the conservative “war on women.”
