I don't understand why go to such extremes to try to argue for banning abortion even in cases of rape any way. The argument is simple (agree or not) - Dano Aug 19, 17:22 1
- I've always thought this exception for rape or incest is a huge logical gap in the pro-life argument. - ralph wiggum Aug 19, 17:51

- "... Stop reading. Start doing." Then quit writing stuff for us to read, blogger! -- nm - Spawn Aug 19, 17:26

- I can't remember, did he have a limp? Because two affectations would be really ridiculous. -- nm - Max Aug 19, 17:41
SummerSlam preshow match spoiler - Tim on iPhone Aug 19, 16:58
I'm still trying to figure what exactly he meant by "legitimate rape" -- nm - prayformojo Aug 19, 16:34 17
- you may remember his previous legislation on "forcible rape." (paul ryan signed on to that one too.) -- nm - mara Aug 19, 17:20 1

        Yes, but not by a stranger. - the wrong element, bad guy Aug 19, 17:06
        
        Except, from what this guy is saying, it isn't rape because she led the guy on then decided to stop him short. Plus, if she got pregnant - TWuG Aug 19, 16:53 1
        
        I think that last line nails it, so it becomes a self fulfilling argument -- nm - prayformojo Aug 19, 16:56

  - Her mouth said 'No No!!" but her body said "Yes Yes!!" - MojaveMeg Aug 19, 16:49

- This is embarrassing. -- nm - Dano Aug 19, 15:07 2
  - At least Lucasfilm productions are consistent. -- nm - David Aug 19, 15:09 1
    - But they're not. At least Indiana's movies' titles suggested adventure. The Red Tails titles suggest high school A/V club, c1995. -- nm - Max Aug 19, 17:45
