Todd Akin's Sinking Ship (inside info -- the real reason he MUST GO)
wall street journal ^ | 8-2012 | (comments by DFU)

Posted on 08/20/2012 6:44:29 PM PDT by doug from upland

THE ARTICLE

COMMENTS: Here is the real problem. My own investigation reveals the following:

1 - one night he was drunk and partying with young women; he drove off a bridge, ran away like a coward, did not get help for 8 hours, and let the young woman die in an air pocket in 6 feet of water

2 - at a conference, he brutally bit and raped a nursing home operator and told her to put ice on it

3 - in his office, he assaulted a woman pleading for a job whose husband had just died

4 - on Easter Sunday, he showed off his Bible for photo ops in the morning, then got a BJ from an intern in his office right after church

5 - he exposed himself to a woman brought to his hotel room by troopers and told her to kiss it

6 - he gave government jobs in exchange for sex

7 - he had thugs slash a woman's tires, kill her cat, and threaten the lives of her children if she testified in a sexual harassment case

8 - he and his brother had sex and cocaine parties with underage girls

9 - behind the scenes, his evil satanic wife threatened women who might come forward and cause him grief

Given the nationwide witch hunt, there must be some explanation.

It’s always useful to point out the hypocrisy of democRats and the media.

Sounds reasonable. The plan for the rats to use the “war on women” has been in the works for a long time. This guy is right out of that meme typecast.

It’s just about all they have going for them. They thing that if they can get enough single women to vote, 0bama wins in a landslide (especially when you add in the voter fraud). If he stays in the race, the “war on women” will be the first, and only thing you hear on the alphabet networks, night after night until the election. Ryan will be the scary “Catholic”, Rommney the scary “Mormon” with crazy beliefs that wants women barefoot and pregnant in the kitchen.

The best thing the Republicans can do is ditch this guy and run a women in his place.

The real reason is that he’s an idiot. Granted, he would have a lot of company in Congress, but we’re trying to get rid of the idiots, not add to them.

His rational was that woman resisting would build a natural immunity to rape, so obviously he wasn't talking about statutory rape, but someone lying about rape.

I think you misspoke there. His rationale was NOT "that woman resisting would build a natural immunity to rape."

Cordially,

Uncle Chip, rarely have I read such a pile of you know what as in your Post #110.

Then you mustn't read your own posts.

The polling out of Missouri has already shown a decline in Akin’s numbers.

Please cite that poll -- oh that's right there aren't any.

As much as you go on and on about the elitist’s “choice”

Oh so then it will be another primary election where the people get to decide??? Get real.

The so-called “moderates” and elitists” didn’t do this to Todd Akin. He did it to himself.

What??? Express the standard prolife position in the state of Missouri that every voter, right and left, knows to be that position???

If Akin had kept his mouth shut, there wouldn’t have been a problem.

So then, just like the unborn whose cause he champions, his voice must be silenced. We hear you loud and clear. We can only wonder who will be next???

OK.....what IS legitimate rape and what is illegitimate rape?

I would be willing to bet that you have looked at enough of these Akin threads to have seen posts of dictionary citations of the various senses of the word "legitimate".

It is obvious from the way Todd used the word that he intended it in the sense of "actual" or "established (not spurious)".

Cordially,

Since you’ve already decided that I am a “mental midget”, I won’t bore someone with a superior mind such as yourself with a response.

A legitimate rape is a rape, as opposed the claim of rape made by nearly 30,000/yr so that they can have their abortions paid for by Medicaid.

“Palin often says, despite the press, she’s not going to keep sit back and her mouth shut.”

Speaking one’s mind and shooting off one’s mouth are two separate things.

Palin does the former. Akin does the latter.

What a ridiculous claim to spout here.

Trent Lott had a lifetime ACU rating of 92

Higher than Santorum who was loved here

Bill Clinton more conservative is an absurd notion

The third one is his assessment that woman's body somehow has a built-in mechanism that prevents pregnancy from rape.

That's the really damaging one, because it carries the obvious and offensive subtext "if you got pregnant from rape, you were asking for it".

Got another one for ya...And this one has hardly made a dent in the national spotlight...Considering the political nature of this “lower-than-dog-crap-in-a-hole-asshat”...

I feel compelled to point this out to the Choir...

BTW, I do not have a lot of warm and fuzzies about Hannity anymore, it is almost like a broken record listening to him anymore...I still get better analysis and commentary coupled with great discussions on this website alone, than anywhere else...Honest...

And LG, do NOT send me the the Dry Cleaning bill again!!!

A statement like Akin made makes no sense. He knew (or should have known) how it would be perceived.

So he probably threw the election. The main question should be “Why?”

“The main question should be “Why”?...”

Why? So no matter what Congress does...Romney CANT repeal Obamacare..

either a foreign bank account...or more likely, as per Washington’s preference, a girl/boyfriend with photos/receipts.

I completely agree with your post. If Mittens gets elected as the next President of the US, will he be the same as Zero? The Republicans are fast becoming what I very much dislike about the Democratic party.
