Another important reason why Missourians should support Claire McCaskill's re-election bid

Her opponent, Todd Akin, claims that women who are victims of "legitimate rape" don't get pregnant from the act of rape. I am so appalled that it is making me physically ill.

Farking pompous, asinine, small minded, patriarchal ass with delusions of grandeur.

As The Caucus at The New York Times reports,

Comments by Representative Todd Akin, a Republican running to unseat Senator Claire McCaskill of Missouri, are drawing condemnation after he asserted that victims of “a legitimate rape” have biological mechanisms to prevent pregnancy.

“If it’s a legitimate rape, the female body has ways to try to shut that whole thing down,” Mr. Akin told KTVI-TV of St. Louis in an interview that was broadcast on Sunday.

The comments drew a sharp rebuke on Sunday from Senator McCaskill, who is in a tough fight against the Republican candidate.

“It is beyond comprehension that someone can be so ignorant about the emotional and physical trauma brought on by rape,” the senator said in a statement. “The ideas that Todd Akin has expressed about the serious crime of rape and the impact on its victims are offensive.”

Akin later released a written statement backing away from his televised remarks. Whoop di do.
