Rachel is depressing the hell out of me right now.

This "can't get pregnant from rape" thing has been rampant in the GOP anti-abortion faction for fucking ever. Jesus.

"You secretly wanted it or you couldn't have gotten pregnant."

1. I sure hope women of this country VOTE

[RedStateLiberal]

2. At least when their extreme views are exposed

we have a better chance of them being held accountable. And, it tarnishes the Republican brand.

3. There is more that hasn't come out about the crazy beliefs of right wing nuts.

Particularly from the religious right. If you were raised around it as l was you know some of what I'm talking about. I won't mention them here because you would think I'm crazy. It's better to let these nuts hoist themselves on their own petard.

5. "And OF COURSE you will want the baby

because ALL women really want babies. You will love it once it's born. That's what real women™ DO."

Which just kinda reinforces the "you asked for it somehow" position.

7. It is also a demonstration

of the low esteem in which they hold women. Their thinking is that women's only role in society is to have children, so the method of conception is not an issue. No matter how women find themselves pregnant, the righties think that so what, that's what they're supposed to do.

6. Don't let it depress you

This exposure of the BS beliefs is like shining light into the dark for many people.
I wonder how many votes Akin just cost R&R.

8. Would you prefer that Rachel simply ignore it?

Sweep it under the rug?

I am grateful the rethugs are being exposed for what they really are.

9. EVERY WOMAN in this country had better get her ass out and vote or...

....this place is going to be turned into AFGHANISTAN for women.

Can you say "American Taliban"?
