Mourdock said what he meant, and I believe he means what he says. It doesn't matter if you think he meant that the rape was intended by god, or the pregnancy was intended by god, both are equally deplorable. It suggests that there is a god who intends for the rape victim to suffer the agony of a pregnancy caused by rape. What other interpretation of his words could there possibly be?
It's incredibly easy to say "a baby is a baby" when it's not your sister, mother or daughter who has been raped. I don't believe in late term abortions, and partial-birth abortions are particularly heinous, but if the woman decides in the first couple of weeks that she can't bear the child of her rapist, terminating the pregnancy before viability of the fetus is not something that I think is inherently wrong. Especially if done via the "morning after" emergency contraception pill. I believe that Mourdock would make that choice illegal if given the chance.
Also, he pronounces Washington "Warshington." Completely unacceptable.
You wanted on it. It's not my list, just a list of Donelly supporters posting in this thread, apparently with one I got wrong.
Who's lumping who with Donnelly supporters?
