re: #18 Targetpractice

On that we’d agree, Akin’s is at least consistent. I hate to use the word, but I do respect someone who takes his beliefs to their logical conclusion rather than trying to weasel out of them by making “exceptions.” Men like Akin, who say there is never an exception, at least make it clear that they’re theocratic assholes than their career-minded brethren who try to carve out “exceptions” just to avoid the label that they rightly deserve.

The important point to take away from this is that when you’re dealing with someone who is against abortion because “life begins at conception,” you should just assume that they’re flat out lying to you when they claim to be in favor of exceptions in cases of rape or incest.
