What a lovely woman.
Now, to all you holier-than-thou pubby Neo-Puritans who (unlike me) have apparently never uttered a foolish remark, in what way did Akin disparage or belittle or discount the value of children born of rape. Indeed, he defends their right to life ON PRINCIPLE!. So we attack him for saying something stupid. His point was not that children are never conceived via rape, but that such occurrences are relatively infrequent.
Anyone here personally know hordes and hordes of people who were conceived via rape? No. One or two or a few, perhaps, but not hordes. Point for Akin.
Yes indeed what a lovely well spoken intelligent woman.

Akin with his 'foolish remark' gave 'life' to the Claire 'I am this year a moderate independent' who got a boat load of campaign advertising calling Akin 'ignorant' over 'legitimate rape'.

Who can with absolute honesty answer that question? Given it is a known fact that not all women report 'legitimate rape'. I have come to the opinion because of Akin only women should be allowed to speak about rape pregnancies. Only they can know if the rape was 'legitimate' or not.
