We recall in the last election cycle, the contretemps surrounding senate candidates Todd Akin in Missouri and Richard Mourdock in Indiana, both reputedly Republican. Mr. Akin bizarrely asserted that women have an anatomical defense against rape suggesting that their bodies simply reject pregnancy caused by violation.  Mr. Mourdock said during a debate and in defense the unborn, “even when life begins in that horrible situation of rape, that is something that God intended to happen.”

Of course Mr. Akin’s view is false with ample evidence to reject it. Nonetheless, he believed he had learned it in readings of credible sources and later apologized. No matter, the mainstream media in both Missouri and nationally vilified not just Akin, but ALL Republicans, “troglodytes” if you will.

It is clear in Mr. Mourdock’s remarks and subsequent groveling as he tried to free him himself from the bonds of left-wing “correct” thought that he was not suggesting that God intended rape, but rather, that God creates all life.  For those who are rigidly ignorant and dismissive of pro-life arguments, this particular issue arises from a logical fallacy, to wit: A woman should be allowed an abortion for a pregnancy resulting from, as Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney said, ” the case of rape and incest, and the health and life of the mother.” There you have it:  Annihilate the innocent product of rape or incest, or if the mother has an unwanted headache, or worse, acne! But, rehabilitate rapists, or better yet, as democrat strategist Zerlina Maxwell puts it, “Train men not to rape.”

Who knew it is so simple?!

The pro-abortion forces see no controversy or conflict, no deliberative issues, nothing but a “woman’s right to choose,” because, it’s her body . . . and her right granted by the Supreme Court of these United States that make her’s the decisions of God. So thoughtful observers disagree.

Now, to the point we bring you Colorado State Sen. Evie Hudak an “insensitive” woman no less. Her view is apparently that rape is inevitable, your defenses are limited  Statistics are not on your side and if the government isn’t extant, you’re out of luck, just grin and bear it . . .

Specifically Senator Hudak said to Amanda Collins, a rape victim, after her testimony in favor of concealed carry gun defenses, “I just want to say that, actually statistics are not on your side even if you had a gun.” Adding, “And, chances are that if you would have had a gun, then he would have been able to get that from you and possibly use it against you.”

So there you have it. You’re being raped. Rape too often leads to horrible physical consequences coupled with the obvious psychological trauma, and sometimes to death. But, not to worry, left-wing women senators in Colorado have your back . . . Grin and bear it . . . Submit, if you will . . . and maybe, just maybe, your attacker too is a “Progressive.”

And you hear virtually nothing from the Mainstream Media apparently as they nod in agreement with Senator Hudak.
