Remember Cong. Hank Johnson (D-Ga) who said Guam would tip over if we sent too many troops to the island. That's the kind of ignorance Akin displayed here. Yes, Johnson's still in office. Not to mention the Congresswoman who thought the "flag" on Mars was there and placed by astronauts... Akin's gotta go. Astoundingly moronic statement from this Akin. idiot.

Akin through his comments displayed stunning political naivete.

The statements themselves are easily defensible and are in no way similar to those examples you cite.
