Keith Shirey : Remember facts? Remember facts about rape? Because it turns out that a whole lot of people know less ... Remember facts? Remember facts about rape? Because it turns out that a whole lot of people know less than nothing about the subject. Indeed what they think they know is a whole lot of something that is wrong and dangerous to our heath, safety and well-being. Republican nominee for Senate Richard Mourdock's recent "misspeaking" is unexceptional. Despite what he may have meant when he said "even when life begins in that horrible situation of rape that... is something God intended to happen," he is unexceptional. He's not an outlier. Not a radical. In no substantive way different from his conservative peers in this regard (see below if you disagree). Indeed, he and others, like Todd Akin and Paul Ryan, are part of an age-old tradition of men with power defining when women are raped. And others who enable themto do it for their own gain. But, they are not just the Republican party's legislative norm, they are a fair reflection of our cultural tolerance, one without party affiliation, for rape and its qualifications. For months now we've been subjected to surreal revelation when it comes to what people think and understand about rape, god and women's magical bodies. Here is some real, fact-checked information from a list originally published last week inRHRealityCheck. And this is trigger warning. You may want a strong cup of coffee. Or a drink. Or an empty stomach. There is nothing remotely divine about rape. But steeping our selves in denial or happy oblivion is hurting too many people and has the potential to hurt a lot more. 13 hours ago - Via Google+ - View - Robert L.

I'd never heard of Toru Hashimoto before today but now I do know the one most important thing about him; he is a disgrace to his people. When the GOP senate candidate Todd Akin notoriously said on KTVI-TV that "If it’s a legitimate rape, the female body has ways to try to shut that whole thing down,” he was widely and deservedly reviled in the US media, but the feeble response in Japan to Hashimoto's comments makes America look good by comparison. I'll say that again: Japan makes America look good by comparison. Bloody fucking hell. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-22519384 Japan's WWII sex slaves 'necessary' 6 days ago - Via Google+ - View - JR Buckley : - Children of undocumented immigrants should be allowed to starve. - Gay people and sexually active unmarried... - Children of undocumented immigrants should be allowed to starve. - Gay people and sexually active unmarried women should be banned from teaching. - The Voting Rights Act is a “racial entitlement.” - Todd Akin can save America from an “economic abyss.” - Poor people aren’t really poor if they own refrigerators. - Accused terrorists shouldn’t have legal representation and their lawyers should be punished. - A J.J.
