“What do you believe his core beliefs are re rape?”

That if you were “legitimately raped”, (and you are under the obligation to explain and defend that phrase), you had a very small chance of getting pregnant.
So if this many women are getting pregnant and they say they were raped, they must be lying and really just wanted it to happen, or they enjoyed it, or how else could they have gotten pregnant. Remember forcible rape causes your reproductive system to shut down.

He said it willingly and wen into detail on his beliefs, watch the interview.

I pointed out to you in a subseqent post that Aikin said he meant the word forcible not legitimate. In the context of a bill co-sponsored with Ryan on abortion funding for "forcible rape," it is clear what he meant. The bill passed the house with over 250 votes including those of many Dems.

The rest of your "understanding" of what he meant is just a fantasy when you substitute forcible with legitimate. His junk science conclusion about the body shutting down resulting in less of chance of pregnancy is just that junk science. He did say that women can get pregnant during forcible rape--just that it was rare.

I have a problem with the overreaction to Akin's initial statement during the gotcha interview. He issued an apology several times and explained what he meant. Is this sufficient to cause him to be removed from the ticket after he won the nomination in a primary. I think not. It is just part of the Dem cabal that launched Sandra Fluke who will be speaking at the Dem convention, no doubt attacking Rush Limbaugh despite his apology. Every time we throw someone to the Dem beast as a sacrifice, it does not end the attacks. Just the opposite, it whets their appetite for more.
