Related: About this forumMake this Mourdock/Romney story go viral
Evan McMorris-Santoro-October 23, 2012, 10:32 PM12494
Republican Senate candidate Richard Mourdocks comments on rape, conception and Gods will went viral within hours of him uttering them at the Indiana Senate debate Tuesday, immediately pushing the abortion issue back into the presidential race.
Democrats called on Mitt Romney to denounce Mourdocks comments and request that Mourdock take down the ads featuring Romney which are currently running statewide in Indiana. Romney didnt comment on the ads, but denounced Mourdocks views.

We need to get the word out that Romney is actually endorsing this guy in ads. He denounced Murdock's views? Do they think people are THAT stupid? He knew Mourdock's views when he endorsed him and now to try to denounce the one view on abortion is HYPOCRITICAL!

(609 posts)2. I agree with you
I am surprised it has not gone already. DNC is not quite good at running campaigns.
With CNN trying its best to boost Romney, we need to do something guys!
let us spread the word

If Mourdock believes that conception-by-rape is God's will, does that mean that Mourdock believes that God is a rapist?
Or that everything that happens is God's plan?
If the latter, I can only conclude that Mourdock would be fine with it if someone decided to rape him and thereby, you know, enact God's divine will.

If a sperm is wasted,
God gets quite irate.
