Mike Huckabee Offers Todd Akin Opportunity For Redemption

Posted by Priscilla -26.60pc on August 21, 2012 · Flag

Whilst Catholics get their souls scrubbed in confession, evangelicals maintain that if they just say they're sorry, their transgression is "under the blood" and it's time to move on. That was basically the theme of GOP US Rep. and Senate candidate Todd Akin's commentary on Mike Huckabee's radio show Sunday night. Akin apologized (?!) for his bizarre and offensive comment about "legitimate" rape with this statement, to Huckabee: "I was talking about forcible rape, and that was absolutely the wrong word."  (So, uh "forcible rape" is different from "legitimate" rape, how?) Huckabee, BTW, endorsed and supported Akin's candidacy and for that Akin is grateful. During the warm Christian brotherizing that went on during the interview, Huckabee seemed to validate the Sharon Angle philosophy that being forced to give birth, after a rape, is making lemonade out of lemons (Be happy ladies, you're gonna be a mommy). Huckabee noted that horrible rapes have created "wonderful human beings." Words fail...

If God didn’t like it, it wouldn’t happen.

Maybe Akin needs to watch and read something other than “rape fantasy” porn. We all know what that is—it’s where the “victim” struggles and struggles while the “rapist” begins teasing the “victim” until the struggling turns (almost mystically) into squirms of pleasure and the “victim” starts begging for the “rapist” to f*** her (or him, depending on the type of porn involved). And, eventually, the “victim” becomes a willing, enthusiastic partner who eventually has a mind-shattering orgasm. (And, of course, in the State of California, all such porn is required to have some sort of coda that the “rape” was indeed just a fantasy—some sort of role play activity between consenting adults. IMS, porn producers and directors in California at least, can be fined or even prosecuted for depicting a “real” rape for entertainment purposes. Additionally, I think that any porn sold that depicts a “real” rape can get an adult book store shut down.)

Hell for Huckabee is going to be a very special place, indeed:
He will be continually subjected to forcible rape….until he produces one of those wonderful human beings he espouses.
Such lunacy deserves a just reward!

Akin has made it clear that lawmakers-especially male lawmakers- don’t really know enough about health and anatomy to be making decisions about women’s medical care.

This is the problem with religious fanatics making laws. They basically believe that God makes magical things happen. So it becomes easy to believe something incredibly magical and stupid like Akin’s rape-doesn’t-cause-pregancy idea.

According to Goober the Huckster, two of the following three are “people” entitled to all legal rights. One is not. Can you guess which is which?

1. Unborn fetuses.
2. Corporations.
3. LGBTs.
