Since they have left out the PR Disaster exception, looks like the RNC is going to have to carry this particular baby to term.
Actually, I was thinking it would be sort of like a pet. You know, we could...we could name her Trixie, or Miss Kitty Fantastico, or something.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I don't think anyone is saying they would ask "WAS IT RAPE?!?"
Here's what I was reacting to:
any person that she sees with any degree of regularity is likely to realize that she was raped
And no, no I wouldn't. Not even close. I'm sad that it's true.

Ann, that's a ferret.
ita !, it's probably best just to call me clueless on that point.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
I am left sputtering for words from Akin's latest comments. Do you think it is possible he has gotten all of his knowledge of women, rape, and reproductive issues from soap operas?
I'm searching for an explanation that is more satisfactory than "he's is a giant asshole." But perhaps that will have to suffice.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I think "knowledge" might be too strong a word.

Because books.
I guess what's baffling to me is that news outlets everywhere aren't just saying, "This is WRONG. This guy is dangerously ignorant." Maybe that's not a news outlet's job, but they certainly give opinions on everything else these days.

Don't worry, I'm sure The Newsroom will get to it in a couple of years.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I'm sad that it's true.
I don't think that is true.

Yes.
What's the quote about everyone being entitled to their own opinions, but not their own facts?
