Video: Akin apologizes for ‘legitimate rape’ remark, asks for forgiveness

http://twitter.com/#!/ajjaffe/status/237848058552004609

Missouri Senate candidate Todd Akin released an apology ad Tuesday asking voters to forgive him for suggesting that victims of “legitimate rape” rarely get pregnant.

Transcript via Politico:

“Rape is an evil act. I used the wrong words in the wrong way and for that I apologize. As the father of two daughters, I want tough justice for predators. I have a compassionate heart for the victims of sexual assault. I pray for them,” Akin says. “The fact is, rape can lead to pregnancy. The truth is, rape has many victims.”

Akin continues: “The mistake I made was in the words I said, not in the heart I hold. I ask for your forgiveness.”

Does this mean Akin plans to remain in the U.S. Senate race despite a growing chorus of voices asking him to drop out?

Doesn't look like Todd Akin plans on going away. Here's his apology ad: http://t.co/8GRFU0hE

NEW VIDEO: Rep Akin ad asks forgiveness. Likely means he is *not* dropping out today. http://t.co/4oSwx4Kr

A new PPP poll indicates Akin has 44 percent support while incumbent Claire McCaskill has 43 percent.

If you're just waking up, Akin has an apology ad up & is looking at a (v early) @ppppolls showing him even w @clairecmc http://t.co/2kpvhqmY

But the video apology may be too little, too late.

Never a good sign for a campaign when you have to close your latest ad with "I ask for your forgiveness." http://t.co/48X7ZA7e

Perhaps Akin should have gone with the ol’ standby:

How come @ToddAkin didn't just come out and BLAME BUSH? How could any of the fool #MSM question him then? #mosen #tcot

The U.S. sent Cuba a Hellfire missile by mistake and they won’t return it

For the can’t make this up if we tried file, the Obama administration is under fire after reports surfaced that a Hellfire air-to-ground missile somehow ended up Cuba:

Maybe there’s a loophole that needs to be closed? Did Cuba get the missile from a straw buyer? The president should issue an executive order to prevent this in the future, or something:

Eventually the NRA will get blamed:

It gets worse. We knew they had the missile and still normalized relations without getting it back:

Exit question: Has President Obama tried a hashtag yet? #BringBackOurMissile might be just the threat needed to force Cuba to act!

On Twitter, ‘more people give a crap about National Donut Day’ than D-Day

http://twitter.com/#!/IrisBlasi/status/474892165441921024

The first Friday of every June is “National Donut Day.” This year, it happens to fall on the 70th anniversary of D-Day. Guess which occasion is trending:

null

Many are thinking that some priorities are seriously out of whack:

Really?

However, National Donut Day does at least have a military link:

Double D-Day:
1) In 1938 Salvation Army declared Donut Day to honor those that served donuts to WWI soldiers

2) D-Day – WWII, 1944— Kathryn Nelson (@TacoCatNelson) June 06, 2014

http://twitter.com/#!/mistertug/status/474938899991896064

D-Day and National Donut Day can coexist, but it’s a shame the former has been overshadowed so far on Twitter.
