.....who what the destroy a man who has worked his entire life for the Pro Life Movement and Conservatism.

...Who says really idiotic things such as women don't get pregnant from rape because their bodies magically close up and prevent that from happening. Never mind the long, horrible history of conquering armies raping the vanquished and leaving huge numbers of pregnant women in their wake.

Akin is simply an idiot and it is very clear now why McCaskill and the Democrats poured a couple million bucks into the GOP primaries on his behalf.

Do you have any stats on that?

Other posters have showed that the stress of violence does prevent many pregnancies.

Now, the problem with his statement isn't over the accuracy of it, but the use of 'legitimate' with the word 'rape'.
