Some comments on rape from Republican politicians. Actual true comments here. Imagine these people saying any of this to a 10 year old girl.
If you vote Republican, you are supporting these type of people.
"Rape is kinda like the weather. If it's inevitable, relax and enjoy it."
- Clayton Williams (R-TX)
"If it's a legitimate rape, the female body has ways to try to shut that whole thing down."
- Todd Akin (R-MO)
"Rape victims should make the best of a bad situation."
- Rick Santorum (R-PA)
"Even when life begins in that horrible situation of rape it is something that God intended to happen."
- Richard Mourdock (R-IN)
"In the emergency room they have what's called rape kits, where a woman can get cleaned out."
- Jodie Laubenberg (R-TX)
"If a woman has the right to an abortion, why shouldn't a man be free to use his superior strength to force himself on a woman? At least the rapist's pusuit of sexual freedom doesn't in most cases result in anyone's death."
- Lawrence Lockman (R-ME)
"Rape is a difficult issue, but if a baby is created, it is a human life and whether that mother ends that pregnancy or not the scars will not go away, period. It is a shame that it happens, but there's an opportunity for that woman – no matter how young or old she is – to make a determination about what she's going to do to help that life be a productive human being … That child can grow up and be something magnificent, a wonderful family person, cure cancer, etc."
- Jean Schmidt (R-OH)
