NEW YORK (AP) -- President Barack Obama is mocking Senate candidate Todd Akin of Missouri for his remarks about a woman's body being able to avoid pregnancy during what Akin called a "legitimate rape."

Obama tells a group of donors in New York that the Republican congressman from Missouri "somehow missed science class" even though he sits on the House Committee on Science, Space and Technology.

“And it is Obama who failed to learn in science class that rape cannot result in pregnancy.”

It most certainly can, but it is rare. To say it can NOT is just adding gasoline to a forest fire.

Slayton is a notorious troll here. Review his posting history for other doozies, like Obama being a likely co-conspirator in the O.J. Simpson murders and Christians having the right to savagely beat atheists who enter their church.

Many thousands if Rwandans put the lie to your statement. Children born of rape happen all the time.

I think Barry’s the one who missed science class: life begins at conception. No abortion, no exceptions.

And it is Obama who failed to learn in science class that rape cannot result in pregnancy.

What?! Are you being serious?.....and besides, that's not what was in the WSJ.

How much less likely? 10%? 20%? Unless it’s 100%, Akin is full of shit and you shouldn’t try to defend his blame the victim rape a-holery.

President Barack Obama is mocking Senate candidate Todd Akin of Missouri...

The President of the United States should NOT mock a citizen of the United States. Some here are joining him.

In a sane world this should backfire on Obama. No matter how boneheaded Akin's statement, he doesn't deserve the open derision of the President of the United States. Class act.

I hope the citizens of Missouri take this to heart and, if Akin stays in, send him to DC as a thorn in the flesh to Babs "Who's Your Momma" Boxer.

1) We just came off the Chick-fil-A triumph
2) Dems says stupid things all the time
3) Let’s stop running from the Media, and what people say/think

We can win this, and cut the heart out of Media attacks on Conservatives.

I just checked out his posts, and you’re right. Surprised he’s survived around here since 2006.
