Duchess St. Rollins
FUCK YOU TODD AKIN!!!!!Well, guess who else can feel pain, Todd Akin? Women who are raped forcibly or otherwise, whether you deem it "legitimate" or not. How fucking DARE you question the validity of a woman's claim after being raped. How fucking DARE you insist that women should be forced to carry a baby to term after being horrifically violated in a way you can only imagine. And how fucking DARE you try to block access to the morning-after pill so that women who are faced with an unwanted pregnancy have no other choice BUT to have an abortion, you goddamned cowardly shit stain of a human being.
I guess all this must be because you just care about children so much. Awww, how precious. Except guess what else hurts, Todd? Being so fucking hungry at noon that your belly is rumbling and you can barely stay awake, much less pay attention in math class. Yet, you want to eradicate the school-lunch program for Missouri children because you boldly assert that the government should be out of the education business. Wow, what an altruistic cocksucker you are.
Get this through your vacuous fucking head, asshole; the Constitution says that taxes may be collected and utilized to protect and care for the citizens of the United States of America. Programs like the kind that make sure kids can eat and pay attention in school so that the next generation of children is afforded the tools to be successful, regardless of their economic status, can clearly be defined as providing for the common good of The People. As all not stupid-as-fuck folks know, a foundation of educated and productive citizens makes American stronger and more viable as a whole.
I guess I wouldnt expect you to know that though since you are apparently so cerebrally challenged that you are running on a platform that says it's not the government's job to get involved in feeding or educating school children, yet it IS the government's job to get involved in a woman's reproductive rights. Wow, that sounds like a bit of a contradiction there, you misogynistic pig. Out of the education business and straight into my fucking vagina.
Gosh, I'm starting to believe that you and your Rethuglican handlers don't really want American children to achieve success, unless they're the spawn of the one-percent. Why the fuck else would you claim to be pro-life, yet do everything in your power to make sure the kids that have ALREADY been born lead a miserable existence and--are more than likely facing a bleak future? Fuck you for squawking incessantly about the unborn, but turning your back on presently living, presently suffering, and presently desperate American children.
I think your bid for a Senate seat just became a fuck of a lot less "legitimate," douchehat.

That says it all. Rethugs care NOTHING for "life" or children. All of this is about controlling and degrading women.
I'm passed the appalled stage with this crop of Rethuglicans. Really??? This asshat Akin will decide when rape is legitimate?? Really????
BTW, I am keeping track of all of the Duchess' ways with the word douche ... douchehat is another solid entry to the list.

Legitimate rape = gun to head, knife at throat.
Illegitimate rape = was asking for it, dressed the "wrong" way, said no but really meant yes, likes it "rough" etc.

For some reason, I'm not laughing..

(23,156 posts)The Presbyterians I know are incredibly liberal people, as is the church they attend. I know, because I, the agnostic, go to services with them every so often and I like the services a lot in small doses. They also do serious community outreach, and I help them with feeding the homeless.
xmas74
(29,674 posts)I know someone who was in it as a child. She was homeschooled, not allowed contact with children outside of her church, etc.
One year at Halloween she went to the store with me to help my child pick out a costume. She was so excited because she'd never had a costume and wanted to help. Her family used to leave the light on Halloween night so when the kids would come trick or treating at her door her parents would make them hand out Chick Tracts and would offer to pray for the kids souls.
After hearing that story I knew what needed to be done. On Halloween I found a cheap plastic monster mask for her and we went trick or treating. She was 24.

But to replace her with a piece of shit like this douche Akin would be a crime against humanity.
So the lesser of two evils in this case is a lot less evil.
But it's still a goddamn shame that this is the kind of choice people get.

(26,449 posts)Many here prefer that people don't use cocksucker analogies because of the homophobic nature of the insult. Personally, I agree and think surely one as talented as you can find an even more demeaning insult.

(3,596 posts)I checked several reputable dictionaries to see if there were descriptions for "legitimate" versus "Illegitimate" rape. I couldn't find any. This is the definition in dictionary.com which is comparable to all the other sites I checked:
rape1 ? ?[reyp] Show IPA noun, verb, raped, rap·ing.
noun
1.
the unlawful compelling of a person through physical force or duress to have sexual intercourse.
2.
any act of sexual intercourse that is forced upon a person.
3.
statutory rape.
4.
an act of plunder, violent seizure, or abuse; despoliation; violation: the rape of the countryside.
5.
Archaic . the act of seizing and carrying off by force.
Since I live in pre-historic Georgia I decided to check the current legal definition of Rape under Georgia Law (OCGA 16-6-1) and, like GWB's WMDs in Iraq, there is no distinction here either..
O.C.G.A. 16-6-1 (2010)
16-6-1. Rape
(a) A person commits the offense of rape when he has carnal knowledge of:
(1) A female forcibly and against her will; or
(2) A female who is less than ten years of age.
Carnal knowledge in rape occurs when there is any penetration of the female sex organ by the male sex organ. The fact that the person allegedly raped is the wife of the defendant shall not be a defense to a charge of rape.
(b) A person convicted of the offense of rape shall be punished by death, by imprisonment for life without parole, by imprisonment for life, or by a split sentence that is a term of imprisonment for not less than 25 years and not exceeding life imprisonment, followed by probation for life. Any person convicted under this Code section shall, in addition, be subject to the sentencing and punishment provisions of Code Sections 17-10-6.1 and 17-10-7.
(c) When evidence relating to an allegation of rape is collected in the course of a medical examination of the person who is the victim of the alleged crime, the law enforcement agency investigating the alleged crime shall be responsible for the cost of the medical examination to the extent that expense is incurred for the limited purpose of collecting evidence.

(12 posts)Huzzah Duchess! You are voicing passionately women who will never be able to voice it themselves. It was LOL funny on Akin's Facebook site - there is a riot of people utterly pissed off at his comments including those who have voted for him in the past who will now be voting for McCaskill. Lesson for the Democrats who are running - this is a losing issue for idiot Republicans and we can win in a landslide.
