I'm 100% pro-choice and obviously agree that Brownback is an asshole... but, for the pro-lifers who oppose abortion because they believe that life begins at conception, it shouldn't matter whether a fetus is conceived through a rape or not. All abortion would be murder under that assumption. So, I'm not surprised that he would say that those who have been raped shouldn't get abortions.

The tossing of the 10-year-sentence of the "sex offender" case in Georgia has been put on hold because the prosecutor there is appealing, sparking understandable outrage

See http://us.cnn.com/2007/US/06/11/teen.sex.case/index.html

As even Andrew Sullivan puts it, "If Genarlow Wilson were white, I'd bet he'd be free."

I love the Yahoo News take on Brownbacks Gay-marriage research:

It was not clear what research he was citing.

Why can't they ever just come out and say he's full of shit...?

#2 Agreed.

The irony is, if he fucked her it would of been OK but the fact she sucked his dick got him 10 years.

Sucking dick is a good home remedy for the hiccups, although legend has it that it's to be done for 10 consecutive years.
