Brownback Tows the Far Right Line
Posted by Mike Gehrke on June 11, 2007 at 04:03 PM
Pushes no abortions for rape victims, and cites imaginary studies:
Sen. Sam Brownback, campaigning for president Saturday before the National Catholic Men's Conference, questioned whether rape victims should get abortions.
"Rape is terrible. Rape is awful. Is it made any better by killing an innocent child? Does it solve the problem for the woman that's been raped?" the Kansas Republican asked at the St. Joseph's Covenant Keepers gathering.
He also encouraged married couples to stay together, saying studies have shown that if couples weather hard times for five years, their marriages tend to last. After five years, "people are happier than those who have had a divorce," Brownback said.
It was not clear what research he was citing.

In a word, "Yes."

Sandy, the question "does it solve the problem of the woman raped" just proves how little men know about pregnancy !
They think forcing the woman to carry for 9 months, an unwanted fetus, a fetus which genetically carries the same characteristics as the Raping man and may end up as unstable as he was, to go in public showing your shame for 9 months and being reminded every time you vomit, can't bend over,can't sleep, etc. Pregnancy and motherhood is supposed to be a happy time, not a forced sentence. Men should be forbidden to make any comments, any decisions on Women and their uteruses, unless it is their own wives.
It AMAZES me at how inhumane democrats are. So, to alleviate the suffering of a woman who was raped, your going to KILL a CHILD? Whoa, hey, why don't we just have the kid born and then take it out back and throw it away with the rest of the trash at the hospital. That's what it amounts to. You want to solve one evil with another equally evil act. That's the democratic base for you all...in living colour. Godless and Looking for the quick fix to feeling better about themselves. Shame on all of you! This is why we have adoption. There is no need to murder an unborn child even if it is conceived during a rape. That is just plain evil and show the democrats at their best...er worst. Advocating sanctioned state sanctioned murder.

And it gets me that democraps are so quick to point out inhumane acts around the world, and condemn those acts, people, and countries. Take a look in the mirror! You are just as bad as the baby killers in Iraq and elsewhere the world over. Others can't get away with inhumane acts, but it's ok for the liberals to do the same indecent acts themselves. Hypocrite!!!
