Granted they are trying to push Akin out for his tremendously stupid comments about rape but then they turn around and adopt abortion as a front end plank at the convention.
SERIOUSLY?????? Are we this god damn stupid? We should have this election in the bag based on the economic performance of this administration. So what do we do? Change the subject from FAILED POLICIES to social issues that before a couple days ago were not even spoke of. Issues that thanks to Akin we WILL LOSE on.
This has got to be one of the dumbest moves of the GOP leaders in years if not decades. This election was ours to lose and we just shot ourselves in the foot.
YEAH IT'S DISGUSTING--and I agree with you. What's happened especially in tea party groups is the
far out right social nut-cases have grabbed the floor--on abortion issues. They could give a rats ass about the economy--deficits and an out of control big spending expansive federal government--and want to insult the integrity of 52% of the vote in this country which are WOMEN.
And what's really funny--is they expect to win in 2012---

Romney is very middle of the road on social issues--and does give exemption to abortion in the instance of rape and incest--and the platform wants to bring up abortion when he wants to talk about jobs--deficits, etc. Romney doesn't even like the topic (abortion) brought up.
If I were Romney I would grab the freaking head of the GOP by ******* throat and choke him off before I would let him use the "word" abortion on the platform.
UN FREAKIN BELIEVABLE.
These ******* idiots are playing right into the Obama's reelection committees hands.
