Todd Akin on the Issues

All these brave Freepers cowering in fear of some liberal smear job against a true blue conservative and they are ready to install a left wing socialist feminazi to replace him so that the GOP-e won’t be embarassed should he lose... or win.

Ever since FR officially became Romney country, the RINOs seem to have taken over this forum. I think JR should have held out until after the convention before making a decision on whether or not to back the GOP-e ticket.

Anything could happen before the convention. Romney could be caught with a dead girl or a live boy.

I’m not going to play your game.

I believe its life, and I believe that its not the baby’s fault as to how it was conceived.

But you know what, life isn’t fair, and sometimes that unfairness starts the exact moment someone is conceived.

If a woman is raped, becomes pregnant as a result and then choose to terminate that pregnancy, then I support that decision without question.

I will not judge someone who has walked that path. I will not do it.

I am pro life, but I do not ever have to face the decision of give birth to a child of rape, because I am a man. That terrible choice that a woman must make or not make, and that woman shall have my support regardless of her decision.

There is a reason why he is called “Tokyo Rove.”

In TN we have Corker for reelection for US Sennate...

We have tried to get rid of this AMNESTY for the illegal aliens RINO. but no go...

There was a thread a couple of days ago about a group calling themselves the National TEA Party..

They are claiming credit for getting their candidates the primary wins in Texas and Tennessee and then they said the US Senate in Tennesse ...

Thats Corker the one we want to Repeal and Replace...

Thanks guys Thanks for nothing...

so though you may be voting for someone else for the down ticket primaries it may be that some out-of-state group is busy shoving your RINO down your throat once again...

...she was not cut out for politics, in any form or fashion, her campaign was over well before “I’m not a witch”...

BWHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
And yet here you are vociferously railing on and on and on against a man who has a verifiable track record of 20 odd years as a sound conservative saying that one comment is going to ruin him!

You are a fool as your own words do you in.

[Red Steel]

I’ve scanned Akin’s record and it appears pretty good.

4I’ve scanned Akin’s record and it appears pretty good.

Better than Boehner or McConnell. But then there are democrats with better records than those RINOs.

Akin's record is pretty much unmatched as far as his conservative creds. But you'd think he was the stupidest man who ever lived if you look around this forum. Since Akin is more conservative than nearly every one of the RINO's calling for his head, what does that say about the intelligence of the Freepers who have joined in that chorus?

We aren't going to win $#!+ if we aren't willing to fight the smear machines. Akin is fighting back. Freepers are surrendering en-masse. It's pretty depressing.

They like self flagellation or look here here at the shiny object!

The shiny object = for which Akin promptly apologized for but look look anyways!

****I’m not going to play your game.****

It’s not a game.

****I believe its life, and I believe that its not the baby’s fault as to how it was conceived.****

If you believe it’s life (and by the way it is innocent life) then you are saying it is ok to take that life... your “not the baby’s fault” argument is not one in your favor.... it’s an argument against your position.

You’re certainly free to hold that position.... just understand that it is logically flawed and you are giving the child the ultimate punishment for the crime of another.

[Paradox]

Very apropo. As you’ll recall, in that movie, he was right :)

[chris37]

Yeah it is.

And yes, I believe it’s life, and to terminate it is obviously killing that life.

But there are times in this world when killing is justified, and if that is the decision that is made in the case of a rape, then that is the decision that is made.

Having a child conceived in love is much different then having a child conveived in hate, rage, anger and malice.

If I were female and that happened to me, I would bear no such child.

If you want to, then do it.

The person responsible for what happened is the rapist. He’s resposible for every bit of it, so may he pay the price both here and there.

[Hoodat]

Where's Todd Akin on sitting at home for the next six years while Claire McCaskill ensures that her 1% of the Senate will always vote against conservatism?

Akin may be right on the issues, but he simply isn't ready for prime time.

“From now on, GOP will be the party of “legitimate rape” to much of the populace,”

Only if you allow it. Alinsky has a rule for this. His rules work for the right as well as the left. LAUGH AT THEM. It will drive them crazy.
