The GOP would call for a woman to be stoned for being raped meow2u3 Aug 2012 #4
Well let's be honest - they would only do that if she got pregnant from the "rape", kestrel91316 Aug 2012 #5

... But until they start calling for women to be stoned to death for driving, I wouldn't be comparing them to Saudi Arabia. Nobody's going to take that seriously.....

A bit of a stretch, no?

Don't get me wrong - the righties and especially the fundy-batshit crazy rigthies are nucking futs!! But I think equating them with the Saudi's is a bit of an overreach...

Now the Westboro Baptist nuts??? They're as bad as it gets!

So, in that case, the repukes are like the Saudis.

because pregnancy is proof that it wasn't a "legitimate" rape - IOW she's a lyin' ho'.

Is the way they dress, other than that, their goals and agenda are identical.

Both groups of ‘people’ are direct threats to freedom.
