CNN Contributor Dana Loesch Defends Virginia State-Sponsored Rape Bill As No Different Than Consensual Sex
LOESCH: Thats the big thing that progressives are trying to say, that its rape and so on and so forth. [...] There were individuals saying, Oh what about the Virginia rape? The rapes that, the forced rapes of women who are pregnant? What? Wait a minute, they had no problem having similar to a trans-vaginal procedure when they engaged in the act that resulted in their pregnancy.

Dana Loesch ("She Who Would Urinate On Corpses" http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/01/13/dana-loesch-urinate-taliban-soldiers_n_1204727.html ) has been a wholehearted advocate of this position since the uproar happened, but she goes one step further through the use of statistics: you deserve to have a giant probe shoved inside you even if you've already had a child and therefore know exactly what happens when you get pregnant.
Furthermore, the greatest number of abortions are obtained by women who already have a child/children, so they know how anatomy and physiology works. A lack of planning on the womans part doesnt constitute a mandate for legalized (and in the case of Planned Parenthood, publicly-funded) murder.

(37,163 posts)1. Conservatives for "here, have another one you filthy slut", that's the essence of it.
They're not even trying to hide it now.
And of course Dana doesn't miss the opportunity to repeat the lie about PP. But then, she works for notsoBreitbart.

Revoke her Honorary Female card; she lacks the qualifications.
