Well, there's Ryan. Todd Akin. Romney clearly supports it by supporting his VP candidate in his support of Akin. Santorum believes in similar things, such as girls who wear short skirts are "asking for it". There was the "some girls rape easy" comment by the Wisconsin Rep Rivard. Which was amusing, because Ryan did a Mitt Flop and refused to support him on that. Even though he already defended Akin at one point. Again, Nixon had similar views regarding rape, woman's rights, husbands' "privilege" and so on so forth. Oh, and you have that loverly radio show host who called all women who use birth control sluts and whores. Prostitutes. That was nice, too.
"Legitimate Rape" may be a new term, but the idea is sadly not.
It started with Akin, and every republican ran from him including Paul Ryan "Paul Ryan, newly named as Romney’s running mate, personally telephoned Akin, asking him to quit the race for the good of the party"
Link. Im not going to bother looking further because Im tired, and you seem to be grasping.
Limbaugh referred to 1, that is One, woman as a slut and a ***** who wanted the .gov to support her lifestyle. At least I think it was Rush, it sounds like him. Ever listen to Left wing talk radio? They make Rush look like a choir boy, I listen to both sides. Rush just does better at ratings.
And I never said extremists didn't exist on both sides. They most certainly do and I'm not a blind fool to that. I was just pointing out what's been happening the last few years and what Romney/Ryan have been supporting. And generally how randomly annoying the Reps have been on these social issues that should long be past us.
The right wing extremists are threatening to leave the country, the left wing extremists are threatening to riot. What is worse? IMHO, its the right wing leaving with their annoying money. Get .gov out of social issues and leave it to society. When you legislate society, society gets pissed off.
Is Romney what I want? No. Is Obama what I want? Who is John Gault?
Where have Romney and Paul been supporting rape?
Are ALL Reps that way? Of course not, and I'd like to see one of THEM running for President.
Write me in as the Presidential candidate then.
