Wait, since when do right-wingers care about rape?

I'm assuming this wasn't serious?

Semi-serious. Fox News did have that one special that tried to expel sexual harassment at school and at work as a "myth" and that women should grow balls or whatever and learn to like catcalling and men ogling them.

We were talking about rape but I'm sure that was another sh*tty Fox News report.

Granted whenever I say right-wing I'm not referring to the sensible folk.

Holy. Good. ****! :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:

You sure these are actual quotes? From alleged human beings??? :mad:

I'm not sure what's so awful about the Santorum quote tbh. I don't know what the context is, or whether it's the most tactful quote, but is it worth putting next to the other ones?

Edit: ^ The actual quote "We have horrible things happen. I can’t think of anything more horrible. But, nevertheless, we have to make the best out of a bad situation.". Essentially I am pro-life myself, but this isn't the most insane comment I have heard.

Some of those are edited quotes, but can we agree that it's ridiculous to quote mine some idiots (yes, some of these are pretty legitimate comments) and attribute their opinions to a whole group of people? The idea that republicans don't care about rape might be the stupidest thing I have read on this forum.

The problem with the perception of the Republican party comes from the people you guys choose to represent you. Demand better Republicans.

Edit: Those quotes remind me of The Grapist.
