ā€œThe research is not conclusive, but there is considerable evidence that stress makes conception more difficult, and what could be more stressful than a rape?ā€

I donā€™t understand why Mr. Akinā€™s statement is being reported, however, based on his statement, Mrs. Clinton, who was assigned by the Court to represent the rapist, should have tried to get her client found guilt of the crime. That is against lawyers ethics as they must provide their client with a robust defense, they can be disbarred. Iā€™m sorry for the victim in the case, that the court process was difficult for her and she feels, even after all these years, abused. Maybe the issue was why the victim so abused by the court procedures. The fault is not the on the individual lawyers assigned to the case, the court procedures that allows at minor victim to feel so abused.

Akin thinks he and rape are both gifts from god. But for Hillary defending the case, Akin, et al, would be saying the victim asked for it. What a two faced SOB.

Akinā€™s just doing his part to pee in the pool, anticipating Hillaryā€™s POTUS candidacy. There will be much, much more of this from the Grifter Obstructionist Party.

Akin accusing someone else of delegitimizing rape victims is like, I donā€™t know, Cheney accusing President Obama of screwing up in Iraq.
