Akin threads

Akin was a politician running for political office. Bundy is a private citizen with no political aspirations. Akin's comment was repugnant to everyone. Bundy was correct, just clumsy in his expression.

The socialists are filled with horrible temerity when they see us criticizing our own. That is why we supported Akin after he stumbled. Note that the Democrats will defend the indefensible when one of theirs is in trouble. Conservatives need to learn from them.

Had he dropped out, we almost certainly would have won that seat. So loyalty to Todd Akin, the candidate Democrat interest groups funneled money to in the primary because they knew he was the worst option we could field, got us what? 6 more years of Claire is what it got us. An easily winnable Senate seat thrown away.

Oh stop it. Lots of people defended his comments, including here.

You think wondering aloud whether "the Negro" was perhaps better off a slave than they are now is correct? Thinking such a thing doesn't make one a racist, but it does make a person kind of stupid.
