Todd Akin: ‘I should have said legitimate case of rape’
You Moron

By Sean Sullivan

July 17, 2014--Former congressman Todd Akin (R-MO) said Thursday that he used a poor choice of words in 2012 when he suggested "legitimate rape" rarely causes pregnancy, but stood by his argument, asserting that he should have used slightly different wording.

And here folks is just one example of not educating our children in the sciences.

Riiight, Todd

Akin, whose 2012 Senate campaign was derailed by the controversy his remarks set off, argued on MSNBC's "The Daily Rundown" that he was using the language of law enforcement agencies.

Well then you're golden, Todd...don't listen to anybody.

"Legitimate rape is a law enforcement term. And it's abbreviation for legitimate case of rape," said Akin. The former congressman added, "If I had been choosing my words better, I should have said legitimate case of rape. And I have acknowledged that it is a poor choice of words."

We don't have to look at your milquetoast face anymore, do we Todd?

Akin, as he has done in several media interviews in recent weeks, argued that his words were deliberately distorted.

By whom?

"This is something that was intentionally misunderstood and twisted for political purposes," he said.

Akin is back in the spotlight promoting his new book, “Firing Back: Taking on the Party Bosses and Media Elite to Protect Our Faith and Freedom." Akin writes that he regrets apologizing for his "legitimate rape" comment in a television commercial.

Riiight, Todd...you have nothing to apologize for.

Hope your book sells better than your political campaign, Todd; that was a real disaster, wasn't it?? Even the Koch boys couldn't
bail you out of stupid.
