Mark Levin goes nuclear, says Todd Akin chose himself over the country (Audio)
The Right Scoop ^ | 08/21/2012 | Staff

Mark Levin is clearly not happy with Akin’s decision, saying that he put himself over that of the country at a time when we are trying to win the Senate with the country at stake. And how we have to try and win the Senate with a weaker, wounded candidate who did it to himself.

But at the end of the day Levin says we still have to fight to beat McCaskill and if it’s with Akin, then so be it – we must support him.

I suggest the rambling old fool whose campaign received millions from Claire get a grip and leave.
This man is a dangerous fool and a liar .
Using a slanted poll as the reason to stay in is pure BS.
He is a power hungry DC egomaniac.

Which is one valid way that the body will reject a pregnancy and have a spontaneous abortion, but the point is “will reject a pregnancy” in other words, an already existing pregnancy.

What Akin was referring to clearly, especially after his interview with Hannity was Willke’s goofy idea about the reproductive system not allowing full fertilization to occur through stress and other factors.

Even in the first example, preeclampsia is still pretty rare(less than 10% of all pregnancies) and couples who are trying to conceive are being told that the more a woman is exposed to the man’s sperm, the less likely the odds of it occurring are.

Absolutely but that does not negate what the author wrote here:

"In saying that women "shut down" pregnancy after rape, Rep. Akin unwittingly stumbled upon the concept that women's bodies reject unfamiliar sperm."

Read the article and Ask her.

I honestly don’t think it would help. This is not his first verbal gaff. It won’t be his last.

Yeah....20-30 weeks after pregnancy and affecting less than 10% of all pregnancies... once again, you’re reading something without understanding what you’re reading.

Not to mention that it’s absolutely clear that was not what Akin was referring to anyways.

“Rapists subsconsciously target victims based on their likelihood of conception.”

So there is no conclusion on the biological factors which may prevent pregnancy during rape, yet medicine has reached the conclusion that rapists subconciously choose to rape women who unknown to them are likely to conceive? How can they be so sure about one and not other.

You are a coward too. You can’t face the consequences of not providing an abortion exception for rape so you pretend rape pregnancy never happens.

It does. You believe a pathetic myth.

The Declaration was just a manifesto, with NO legal force.

The Constitution is the ruling document of the land...or at least its supposed to be.

"Aiken is a city in South Carolina ... Todd Akin, on the other hand, is a self important fool.L

LOL. Stuart Varney just said on Hannity's TV program that Aiken needs to step aside NOW.

Is Akin less of a retard than McCaskill or not?

That's all that matters.

This is not his first verbal gaff. It won’t be his last.

Missouri is the SHOW ME state -- not the Tell ME state.

Actions in Missouri speak louder than words.

Then he should be advised to just keep quiet except for attacking McCaskill.

Since she was bright enough to see that he would implode and thus backed him financially in the primary, the answer seems to be no.

I’m just amazed that the guy was getting all this backing, almost $2 million dollars worth from Democrats, and nobody stopped to go “hmmmm, maybe supporting this guy isn’t such a good idea.”

Akin is not going anywhere so that “rambling old fool” has the opportunity to make the Dem half-wits wallow in their “poor investment” culminating in their defeat.
