Once you take “the body shuts down making pregnancy from rape extremely rare” position, an inescapable conclusion is that a woman who claims to be pregnant due to rape is probably lying.

Leaving out one little word changes a meaning completely. Re-read the actual Akin quote.

"From what I understand from doctors, that's really rare. If it's a legitimate rape, the female body has ways to try to shut that whole thing down. But let's assume that maybe that didn't work or something: You know, I think there should be some punishment, but the punishment ought to be of the rapist and not attacking the child."

Please point out the word that completely changes the meaning.
