Another Legitimate offense...

The idea of "Legitimate Rape" whatever the hell he really meant is of course obscene, offensive and worthy of the highest condemnation.

There is also another real problem with his statement....It's wrong! There is absolutely no scientific evidence, no medical theory or data to back up the claim of the 'god shield' as it has been referred to in the past.

Having politicians who are allowed to govern this nation, make policy decisions that affect people's lives win elections because they make their decisions based on beliefs rather than evidence and experience is about as dangerous and harmful and scary as it gets.

Each decision, law and policy enacted by a government controlled by people like this will harm people, erode rights and run things into the ground.

But even more fundamental, tolerating this kind of willful ignorance is the biggest danger to democracy this nation has or will ever face.
