Republican Family Values.... The Horror The Horror....

Strange, and disturbing, quotes from Republicans and Bible thumpers concerning the violation of woman and children are infamous. Most of us remember the quote but often don't remember which freak said it. So here is a short history of really bizarre quotations:

No list would be complete without a nod to Clayton Williams, oil millionaire and former Texas gubernatorial candidate:
Williams joked to reporters that rape was like weather, saying,
"as long as it's inevitable, you might as well lie back and enjoy it.''
Williams lost to Democrat Ann Richards.
Lest we forget Reverend Dobson's letter to his flock of zombie sheep in June of 2002. He quotes Dr. Joseph Nicolosi on how to prevent something they call "pre-homosexuality":
Meanwhile, the boy's father has to do his part. He needs to mirror and affirm his son's maleness. He can play rough-and-tumble games with his son, in ways that are decidedly different from the games he would play with a little girl. He can help his son learn to throw and catch a ball. He can teach him to pound a square wooden peg into a square hole in a pegboard. He can even take his son with him into the shower, where the boy cannot help but notice that Dad has a penis, just like his, only bigger.
Or this sparkling choice by Shrub for the Advisory Committee for Reproductive Health Drugs (FDA), Dr. W. David Hager. The wingnut who claimed:
"God has called me to stand in the gap. Not only for others, but regarding ethical and moral issues in our country."
Well his ex- wife relates this winner of a story of the reasons there marriage ended:
Sex was always a source of conflict in the marriage. Though it wasn't emotionally satisfying for her, Davis says she soon learned that sex could "buy" peace with Hager after a long day of arguing, or insure his forgiveness after she spent too much money. "Sex was coinage; it was a commodity," she said. Sometimes Hager would blithely shift from vaginal to anal sex. Davis protested. "He would say, 'Oh, I didn't mean to have anal sex with you; I can't feel the difference,'" Davis recalls incredulously. "And I would say, 'Well then, you're in the wrong business.'"
Now one of my personal favs! from right wing nut-job Neal Horsely when he appeared on the Alan Colmes Show:
Colmes: "You had sex with animals?"
Horsely: "Absolutely. I was a fool. When you grow up on a farm in Georgia, your first girlfriend is a mule."
OKAY!!!! Now for some new ones from the State of South Dakota. These two geniuses are from the South Dakota legislature. These are in reference to S. Dakota's anti- choice bill:
FRED DE SAM LAZARO: Napoli says most abortions are performed for what he calls "convenience." He insists that exceptions can be made for rape or incest under the provision that protects the mother's life. I asked him for a scenario in which an exception may be invoked.

BILL NAPOLI: A real-life description to me would be a rape victim, brutally raped, savaged. The girl was a virgin. She was religious. She planned on saving her virginity until she was married. She was brutalized and raped, sodomized as bad as you can possibly make it, and is impregnated. I mean, that girl could be so messed up, physically and psychologically, that carrying that child would very well threaten her life.
Well... That was overly descriptive. If that didn't make you scream Holy Shit! Check out numb nuts #2, S.D. State Rep Joel Dykstra (R)
"I think ‘rape and incest is a buzzword,"” said Rep. Joel Dykstra about not including those conditions in the abortion bill. It'’s a bit of a throwaway line and not everybody who says that really understands what that means. How are you going to define that?"
Yep dems sum good ol' fashion family values!
