Akin didn’t make a GAFFE, he showed he’s fundamentally ignorant of basic biology!

Using the term “legitimate rape” is a Gaffe.

Suggesting women don’t get pregnant if raped is showing you are completely ignorant of the most basic understanding of your own species reproductive systems.

Akin is a distraction, a lost cause, and going to not only lose this Senate seat now, but will cause other close races for his part to be lost. This guy is now a black sheep, and a political nobody.. He’s effectively ended any chance of EVER having a future in politics again. Had he stepped aside, laid low, next cycle or two could have come back, but this cycle, hes a dead man walking, and he’s basically a walking friendly fire incident.

How so? Your statement isn't true simply because you make it instead of substantiating it.

liberals make straw man arguments.
and misquote. and put words in other’s mouths.
=
no one, including Akin, said that women never get pregnant from rape. so why, do you falsely claim they did ?
Akin had the word “try”. the liberals (and you) omit it.
=
stress can SOMETIMES prevent conception.
stress can SOMETIMES cause miscarriage.
..common knowledge.
=
certainly, you would agree, that forcible rape is stressful?
=
finally:

...that is from YOUR page.
abortion is not moral. false accusations are not moral.
