As a U.S. Congressman, Todd serves on three committees: Armed Services, Science and Technology and Budget.Todd Akin, now renowned as the 13th Century Congressman from the State of Misery (here's to you, Candi, wherever you may be) has, on his web site, a section entitled "News and Media" which does not mention any of the, you know, news and media currently devoted to his sorry person. It appears from a piece in the Times this morning Akin's views on feminine plumbing are hardly outré among the Christianists down home. Just because the national R's are cleverly running away from him (although not so fast, it seems, as to outdistance the draft* Republican platform) does not necessarily mean he's in electoral trouble down Misery way.
"He" (I'm saying "he" because almost certainly we're talking about a Mrs. He here) also has home-schooled all six of his children (as have many of his staunchest supporters, according to the aforementioned Times piece), which means, darlin', if civilization has not ended yet it will real soon.
But hardly mentioned in all the hubub is that this cretin serves on the House's Science and Technology Committee.
Which is to say, we're all screwed.
*No longer draft.
