   Akin is an idiot, okay he should quit for the way he thinks.

   I know a certain ex-Prez. who had a chubby intern on her knees. Talk about your war on women. The left bent over backwards to protect him. Well not really him but their political power.

   COULD YOU IMAGINE IF CLINTON WERE A REPUB.

   The left would have said this is what repubs. think of woman. They should be on their knees. Powerful white men free to abuse women and use them like animals and toss them away. A Repub. Prez. would have had to resiqn in disgrace. Please save your outrage it rings hollow. At least we jumped on this guy to get out the first day. It may cost us the SENATE but we stand on principal.

   @Papa

   Are you comparing a female willingly going down on her knees to rape? Wow, just wow. Do you know how many presidents throughout the history of this country had mistresses, but hey only Clinton was bad for doing it. lol

   Oh no I comparing what someone thinks to what someone did. We don’t have thought police but we can ask that person to quit and he should. Akin did rape anyone.

   Akin did not rape anyone. His penalty is his career.

   Obama Campaign Spends More Money Than It Raised In July…

   President Barack Obama’s campaign burned through more money in July than it took in.

   Obama for America spent nearly $59 million last month, while raising $49 million, according to federal campaign finance reports filed Monday.

   The Democratic National Committee, meanwhile, raised nearly $10 million in July – less than half the amount the committee collected in June, according to federal reports filed by the committee today.

   and ……….. an inspiring story from my neck of the woods

   Ferragut Company coordinates millions of pounds of food donations

   ….The result has been a 20-year effort to help solve the issue of food waste and hunger through his for-profit company, Food Donation Connection.

   Since 1992, the Farragut-based business has quietly, yet, successfully coordinated the donation of more than 230 million pounds of excess perishable and prepared foods from companies in the United States, Canada and more recently, the United Kingdom

   Donor partners: About 250 including Yum! Brands (A&W, Long John Silver’s, KFC, Pizza Hut and Taco Bell), Darden Restaurants (Red Lobster, Olive Garden, LongHorn Steakhouse, The Capital Grille, Bahama Breeze and Seasons 52), The Cheesecake Factory, Chipotle Mexican Grill, Famous Dave’s, Papa John’s Pizza, Rock Bottom Restaurants (Old Chicago Pizza, Rock Bottom Breweries and Chop House), Starbucks, Caribou Coffee, The Cheesecake Factory, St. Jude Children’s Hospital, HMS Host, Aramark, Bob Evans Restaurants, Mimi’s Café

   I personally don’t think Akin did anything worthy of having to step down. He laid down his beliefs and it’s for the people to decide. all that being said it’s probably for the best in terms of the Republican party that he does step down.

   Using a woman in the fashion the the Ex. Prez. did is digusting and demeaning. Sure she wanted it. An insecure young girl around a man in power.

   Again I ask you what would the lib. media and the left had done to a Repub. who behaved this way. He probably would have got off with curcifiction as a penalty.

    My last comment.

    Akin needs to resign.

    @Papa

    As long as the female had 0 problems doing what she did, who am I to judge. As long as the president does a good job with the country I could care less if they have tons of ladies walking around naked in his office.

    I don’t think the left would try crucify a Republican if they got caught cheating in the White house, they would probably laugh about what a hypocrite they were. Find sex nasty is a christian conservative think

    Let’s see … we get “legitimate rape” and GOP freshmen skinny dipping drunk in the Sea of Galilee.

    Trust none of what you hear / And less of what you see.

    Magic.

    @theBoss1

    In the case of the skinny dipping, I said this in the previous thread but I will say it here, I am more concerned that a bunch of congressmen were given a free trip on the dime of a lobbyist group more then the skinny dipping. That to me is the real story that both sides of the media is ignoring(is Fox even touching skinny dipping story?)

    Just heard this on the Radio

    If Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi had a baby, they would name it Joe Biden

    If Joe Biden and Nancy Pelosi had a baby they would name it Sarah Palin

    “I don’t think the left would try crucify a Republican if they got caught cheating in the White house, they would probably laugh about what a hypocrite they were. Find sex nasty is a christian conservative think”

    Yeah sure, Like all the attention the Left focused on Edwards.

    Akin said a stupid, impromptu thing while trying to paraphrase some ‘Doctors’. He’s only a congressmen. To resign would be to admit he said something SO AWFUL that he needs to end his job and career?!?!?

    We know what he meant…just like we knew what Michelle Obama meant when she said “For the first time in my adult lifetime, I’m really proud of my country”. Just like we forgive Biden for all the stupid things he says. Nobody cares. And next week, nobody will care about Akin (or at least they shouldn’t).

    On a more serious note:

    *Israel TV: Netanyahu ‘determined to attack Iran’ BEFORE US elections…

    TV reporter adds: ‘I doubt Obama could say anything that would convince PM to delay a possible attack’

    Asked by the news anchor in the Hebrew-language TV report how close Israel now was to “a decision and perhaps an attack,” Ben-David said: “It appears that we are closer than ever.”

    He said it seemed that Netanyahu was not waiting for a much-discussed possible meeting with US President Barack Obama, after the UN General Assembly gathering in New York late next month — indeed, “it’s not clear that there’ll be a meeting.” In any case, said Ben-David, “I doubt Obama could say anything that would convince Netanyahu to delay a possible attack.”

    The report added that Netanyahu and Defense Minister Ehud Barak believe Obama would have no choice but to give backing for an Israeli attack before the US presidential elections in November.

    What did he mean? Here is my take, he believes if a woman really feels like she is raped her body will shut down and prevent pregnancy. To me that is junk science. Going beyond abrtion, if that is the kind of science a candidate feels is legit, that scares me bigtime(and this goes to a variety of issues that involve science)

    Any candidate who tells Israel where to shove it instantly gets my vote(sadly it won’t happen with either of the 2 big parties). I think Israel has to much say in our foreign policy, and by the amoutn of money we give then they shouldn’t be telling us how to do stuff.

    Out of curiosity why didn’t the Republicans attack Obama for giving Israel 70B? Now if you want an issue I as a voter could get behind the Republicans on, attack Obama on that

    Laura Ingraham filling in for Billy O, what a joke, she really makes conservatives look bad. She has no clue, no debating skills, no current affairs knowledge, foreign or domestic. UNWATCHABLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    @tennable … you wrote, “Akin said a stupid, impromptu thing while trying to paraphrase some ‘Doctors’. He’s only a congressmen. To resign would be to admit he said something SO AWFUL that he needs to end his job and career?!?!?”

    You don’t think he said something awful?

    Here’s a member of Congres who made that outrageous comment. He’s a lawmaker.

    Akin is a window into the soul of conservatives.

    They hear some doctors who make an unbelievable claim that conforms to their rigid ideology, and then they spout it as the absolute truth.

    Trust none of what you hear / Less of what you see.

    Magic.
