“Some girls rape easy”, according to WI state Rep. Roger Rivard. Apparently he was trying to express the idea that girls who have consensual sex will later claimrape if they get pregnant as a result. FYI, this guy has been endorsed by Paul Ryan.
No matter hoe much truth there is to this most generous of interpretations – it is perhaps the stupidest statement to date from Republicans about sex.
Freudian slip? 
Anyway, that guy Mourdock is sure he gained voters from saying that rape babies are a gift from God: http://www.indystar.com/article/20121025/NEWS0502/121025027
Keep talking, buddy. Keeeeeep talking. Keep this issue at the forefront of every voter’s mind…
Colbert’s rant on GOP talking about rape was pretty good. They should probably take his advice.
[QUOTE=Stephen Colbert]
If you think it might be a good idea to approach the subject of rape in a public forum: Just, don’t. Ever. At all. And if you’re tempted, just ram a pencil in your eye until you rid yourself of the idea that caveman ideas about sexual assault have any place in the public discourse.

Why do I feel like you’re talking to me? Anyway, there are plenty more reasons to criticize it besides, but the stupid Republican version escapes me…
however,
Defiant Texas AG wants to keep poll observers out:
Any chance Texas has something to hide? Because, you know, if you don’t have anything to hide then it doesn’t matter what we observe, no?
No, I noticed that too, in my largely Democratic town. All blue signs. Obviously, none but the dimmest will mistake blue Romney for a Democrat, but all blue signs could serve to muddy the waters for lesser-known candidates for lesser offices. I was wondering if Republican candidates were shipping blue signs to areas that leaned left and red signs to areas that leaned right.
Considering the length of time he’s had Parkinson’s, his advanced age, and his other health problems, I wonder if he’s lucid enough to be making these pronouncements at all. They just sound so much Franklin than Billy.
Governor Perry’s keen intellectual abilities once again demonstrate why he’s too smart to be president (from Try2B Comprehensive’s link):
The article continues by drolly pointing out:
Let me get this straight: supernatural spirits create children? Oh, right. I recall reading that it was the Holy Spirit that impregnated the Virgin. So, Hitler, Dahmer and Pol Pot were gifts from God, too?
What about diabetes - is that a gift from the spirit world, too? That’s pretty hit-or-miss. How about cancer? Does God just flip that magic switch and you get cancer springing from your cells instead of a child? Or is disease from an eeeeeeeevil spirit?
I weep for America…
Actually, it’s quite simple, psychologically. Red is an alarming color. Blue is a calming color. Look quickly at the following two sentences.
There is a spider on your arm.
There is a kitten on your lap.
At first glance (without analyzing the content of the sentence), the second sentence probably sent an alarming signal to your brain. That’s why the signs are blue, you don’t want the electorate scared of you. You want them scared of the other guy.
These are the types of questions that theologians have pondered for thousands of years, and have proposed many hypotheses.
I’m just glad we have Republican politicians to sum them up for us, and present them in terms which, coincidentally, further their aims to make women second-class citizens who are punished for enjoying sexy times.
Let’s go over this one again, as it could be the missing link in my understanding these people.
Is that what they really think?
Is that what they REALLY think!?
Actually, the universal colour for danger is mauve.
AAAHHHHHH! Don’t scare me like that!
Funny - I thought it was Muade
That sounds pretty deep for his normally sarcastic parody. Did he say this somewhere else?
That color often Harolds danger. I mean, heralds…
It was his regular show. He was on a tear that night. I think it was the same night he offered Trump a million dollars if he’d let Colbert dip his balls in his mouth.
No, it was on his show. He’s usually more standoffish in his comedy, but I thought his real feelings were coming through about the stupid things that have been said.
ETA; I didn’t realize **boytyeranma ** responded before I did.
A ship containing **red **paint crashed into a ship containing **blue **paint. The survivors were marooned.
A Texas senator, while not going as far as explicitly saying he is in favor of allowing gay marriage, has publicly stated that he endorses several anti-discrimination measures:
“I think anything that advances, encourages monogamy is a good thing,” he said. “And frankly how could you be against people who want to get their affairs in order and have a loving household.”
Other members of the Republican party, and other Texas politicians, are freaking right the fuck out that one of their own would dare to [del]display basic decency and humanity[/del] go against party lines. From the article:
If he steps on his own dick hard enough, the Fox News chyron writers might.
