   I hope other women give Akins a crash course on what is and isn’t rape. To me, if it was not consensual, it’s rape.

   Love is never, ever forced upon someone else. EVER.

   In THIS case, it really wasn’t rape; it was prostitution.

   @Radish

   Seems the liberals have conveniently forgotten about adoption. There are millions of couples who would love to have a child but can’t.

   scenarios to diet akins: if a 10 yo girl was raped by family member, and got pregnant, is that legit rape? and, provide examples of illegit rape? or, if a woman in a coma gets raped by hospital worker and gets pregnant, is that legit rape? please tell us diet akins since you seem to be an expert on rape. since your education of management engineering, and masters of theology, and your business experience of being a ibm engineer and manager at steel company, and your committee membership on science and tech makes you an expert on rape?

    Todd Akins will cause the right to lose the Senate this time around. The left should love Akins

    @Ima: You talk real tough, but I don’t think you have the cajones to carry a reminder of horrible trauma for nine months and go through the travails of birthing. It’s nice of you to suggest that women should do that which you could not.

    So if a 35-year-old guy had sex with a 13-year-old and got her pregnant, you would advocate forcing her to carry the child to term? Just making sure that Republicans actually believe this.

    If we are going to sentence rape victims to 9 months of hell then all crime victims should be sentenced to hell. Oh wait we already do…all the retirees who were fleeced by Wall Street executives (who just received his
    $32 million bonus) are serving life sentences. And I forget the life sentence that the shooting victims in Aurora got. My bad.
