AFA’s Fischer – Akin is like a victim of rape

Right Wing Watch

Right-wing religious figures, such as Bryan Fischer of the American Family Association, are throwing in their support for embattled Congressman and U.S. Senate candidate Todd Akin, who said last weekend that women can’t get pregnant from what he called “legitimate rape.”

Fischer began the week speaking with AFA president Tim Wildmon on Today’s issues where Fischer compared media criticism of Rep. Akin with the Pharisees’ attacks on Jesus, saying that

“the scribes and Pharisees were the first ones to play gotcha politics. You know the Gospel writers say that they kept looking for some way to trap Jesus in something that he might say, just one single word they could jump on to try to discredit him and that’s what they did with Todd Akin and his comments about rape”.

Fischer then went on to claim that  Todd Akin is ” a victim of forcible assault” over the backlash to his comments on “legitimate rape” in the clip below:
