Republican Todd Akin's views on rape

"Legitimate rape does not get you pregnant."

I am a big fan of sex education in schools because I believe that teaching the simple facts of life can avert many unplanned pregnancies. Thanks to this news, which I learned via Gawker, I am also a big fan of sex education for Republicans in the mid-west. 

Republican Todd Akin, who is incidentally the Republican nominee for the United States Senate for the great state of Missouri, is not concerned about women getting pregnant if they have been the victims of rape because women seldom get pregnant from “legitimate rape.”
