Former Missouri Rep. Todd Akin, credited with preventing Republicans for taking control of the Senate during his last political campaign, is using his book/rehab tour to attack Bill Clinton.

“I merely had poor word choice, nothing I said was demeaning to women or in any way diminishing the seriousness of the crime. But it was simply words, whereas you had somebody with a history of sexual assault and indecency.

There is a lot of difference between doing something, and somebody saying something,” Akin told Secrets.

I must have missed the conviction for sexual assault, against President Clinton.

    This guy would talk better with his mouth shut. I don’t know who is advisers are, but they should be fired.

      That’s what he gets for telling the truth.

      8 words summed that up

        Truth? What truth?

          The right condemns his remark but they still believe what he said was the truth.
          In his mind he didn’t do anything wrong.
          I should of been a little more clearer, my apologies.

    I wasn’t aware of bird rapes, but ok I will concede to the Audubon info. If Mr Akin had schooled us that day with Charles Jaco about the bird rape, which I guarantee he was not talking from a position of education but rather ignorance. His reply might of been taken as knowledge and not just more of the same from the anti choice crowd.
    Btw, welcome back dude, ltns
    Hope all is well up yonder way
