The Republicans are shocked!
Good heavens! Todd Akin agrees with Paul Ryan on right to life, personhood, rape vs. forcible rape. Karl Rove is offended, Romney, whose views are not far from Akin's, wants the Missouri bigot to drop out of the Senate race. Why? Well, Aiken has embarrassed the Romney/Ryan boys. The idea of a GOP Missouri candidate telling the world he doesn't really believe there is a chance of pregnancy from, as he calls it, "legitimate" rape because the victim has an anti-sperm agent. OMG!

Good lord, who are these monsters? But a soulmate to Akin has been Paul Ryan, who brags that he is 100 percent pro-life. Would Ryan support abortion in cases of rape or incest? As the great presidential debate commission mulls its questions, if this one goes unstated can Martha Raditz and all the rest.

Let's get something straight. The idea that a human being is created the moment the egg is fertilized is nuts. Not even Mississippi voters can handle that nonsense.

Maybe Akin has done us a favor! Now Romney/Ryan must step forward and tell us what they would advocate. No time for Romney to dismiss Aiken. Time for Mitt to grow up.

He's playing to his base. He's got the home skooling vote locked up now, and the Ozark demographic too.

Disappointing, Mad. Lots of progressive homeschoolers out here in the Badger State. I should know, I'm one of them.

Dumber and more unbelievable than Akin are the women who support and vote for people who think as he.

If half the voters in the country are women, half the voters should be voting to remove the Republican scumbags from office.

Unfortunate it is that so many women are brainwashed by male interpretation of Scriptures and feel they are subservient to men.

And where might all the right-to-lifers be when it comes to capital punishment?
