The Raw Story: Missouri Republican official: ‘God chose to bless’ women with pregnancies from rape
GOP 4th Senate District Committeewoman Sharon Barnes told The New York Times “that abortion is never an option.”
In an interview with KTVI-TV over the weekend, Akin had said that “the female body has ways to try to shut that whole thing down,” referring to pregnancy after so-called “legitimate rape.”
Barnes “echoed Mr. Akin’s statement that very few rapes resulted in pregnancy,” according to the Times, and she added that “at that point, if God has chosen to bless this person with a life, you don’t kill it.”
“That’s more what I believe he was trying to state,” she insisted. “He just phrased it badly.”"
