Gingrich: Women Should Get Over Mourdock Rape Comments
posted by Ed Staff | Sunday, October 28, 2012

Newt Gingrich seems to think women, Stephanie Cutter included, should just "get over" rape comments like those shared by Republican Senate candidate Richard Mourdock last week.

After Mourdock said rape pregancies are something "God intended to happen," Ginrich said, "Okay so, why can’t people like Stephanie Cutter get over it? We all condemn rape." Watch it.

This guy is just a party hack. Even the Repubs couldn't nominate him for president. The issue here is: Are the Repubs going to make it illegal for a victim of rape to have an abortion? This is where all this is leading. Women are you paying attention? And since they don't believe a legitimate or forcible rape can result in pregnancy in this first place, the rapist will go scot free! Wonderful. These people are just reactionary idiots.

Lee, Albuquerque: You said: I thought Gingrich's area of expertise was adultery.



It is. If I were the current straw head from Mondovi Wi that occupies the Jack-O-Lantern's bed, I would be VERY worried.



As far as the hypocrite turning Catholic: BIG mistake by the Church. I have been a Catholic all my life, and this guy is no Catholic.



The most basic belief of the Church is TRUTH, and this guy would not know truth if it hit him between the eyes.

Funny, I thought Gingrich's area of expertise was adultery.

I have had it with these consevatives who think that they can stand there and preach to the rest of us as if they themselves were GOD! These old white men are not God, Religion is about your relationship with God, and or Jesus, not some man, standing in the way, pretending, to be him.

I like what Tina Fay said, and I quote! "If I have to listen to another grey faced man, with a two dollar haircut, try to explain to me the definition, of rape, my head is going to explode."! Rape, ruins and alters a females life forever. Why don't they try to make the punishment fit the crime, instead of trying to punish the female victim, who has to relive the whole thing a second time in a court of law. I think I allready know the answer to that one. Our justice, and prison system is run on a system geared for profit!!!"""

I wish the American people would make all of these people, stand up and obey, the seperation of Church and State clause in the constitution. Once and for all! People should be more, outraged, over the fact that these people are trying to get into our bedrooms, and tell us what to do. I cant figure out why some just sat by, and let these people take over the Republican Party, without a fight! Its time to vote them all out of there!

total idiot!!!!! late term abortions are not a common thing and if the mother may die there are other things that can be done. Rape is rape and I wonder if these men and women would like to have a family member raped and then have that person have to carry it to term. to bring up obama's stand wasnt the question to this idiot. why cant they just answer what they are asked I think it is because they dont have an answer

"Hey - I'm Sean. I work for Lone Tree Veterinary Medical Center as a pet care technician in the center's boarding kennel. I'm the one who convinced our management to switch our kennel deep cleaner from a bleach-based cleaner to BioGreen Clean. As I said, we were using a popular bleach-based product to clean our kennels and drain troughs. The product worked but not without intense scrubbing that took paint off the kennel walls. And the drain troughs would not get completely clean even with the most intense scrubbing. The worst thing, though, was the fumes that built up inside the confined spaces of the cement kennel walls. Those fumes caused me to get such bad headaches that I feared for my safety. I told my bosses that I could no longer use the product and that I would try to find a safer and more effective cleaner. I've listened to Ed Schultz' radio show since it started and when I began hearing BioGreen Clean ads and heard Ed's enthusiasm for the product, I decided to try it. I ordered a bottle of the ready to use mixture and tried it in my own home. It worked so well that I set up a demonstration for my bosses. The oil and grime that accumulates from dogs rubbing against the walls were no match for BioGreen Clean. It ate right through with minimal scrubbing. And while it took a bit more scrubbing, BioGreen Clean returned the drain troughs to a nearly new condition. And the fact that it is non-toxic has eased my mind about not only my own health, but even more importantly, the health and safety of the animals that we care for. I think BioGreen Clean is an important discovery and I hope beyond hope it remains available. I don't know what we would do without it. Thank you! "
