Actress Tiny Fey was seething on Wednesday as she try to express her outrage at recent comments by several Republican politicians about rape.
I wish we could have an honest and respectful dialogue about these complicated issues, the comedienne told the Center for Reproductive Rights Inaugural Gala. But it seems like we cant right now. And if I have to listen to one more gray-faced man with a two-dollar haircut explain to me what rape is, Im gonna lose my mind!
Last month, Republican Missouri Senate candidate Todd Akin had asserted that women could not get pregnant through legitimate rape. And then Republican Indiana Senate candidate Richard Mourdock claimed on Tuesday that pregnancy from rape is something that God intended to happen.
I watch these guys and Im like, what is happening? Am I secretary on Mad Men? Fey said on Wednesday. What is happening?
