What's Mallard raving about today?
Todd Akin, Joe Biden
Joe Biden (metaphorically): unregulated financial institutions are going to put people "back in chains."
Todd Akin (literally): women's bodies have magical protection against rape sperm (at least in the case of "legitimate rape") and when that fails should be forced to carry the rapist's baby to term.
Must be the Mainstream Media's fault that one of those comments outraged people more than the other.

That damned Stuff
What's Mallard raving about today?
Money
Ladies and their stupid stuff, amirite?
In other news, Mallard Fillmore remains mystified by the fact that women can't stand the GOP.

That damned War
What's Mallard raving about today?
The War on Women, Abortion
Republican legislatures across the United States actually rolling back reproductive rights and workplace rights for women.
Someone with Democratic Party affiliation saying something stupid about Ann Romney on CNN in their role as a pundit.
False equivalency at it's finest.
Bonus points for just tossing abortion into the mix.

That damned Demonstration
What's Mallard raving about today?
Rush Limbaugh, The Media
Right on cue (read: 3-weeks later when I am sure every single sentient Republican would rather everyone stop talking about it), Mallard rides to Rush Limbaugh's rescue.
Right on message, he decides to go for the "Liberals do it also!" defense.
Unfortunately for Rush, the GOP, and Mallard, American Women have clearly understood the difference between diatribes directed at public figures (such as Sarah Palin, Michele Bachman, and Hilary Clinton) and a sustained 3-day verbal assault on a private citizen whose stepped forward to testify in front of Congress.
That said, Mallard...PLEASE keep this issue alive! PLEASE keep highlighting that Republicans simply don't see anything at all wrong with what Limbaugh said (aside from maybe an indelicate choice of words). Because this is a great election-year issue for Republicans. Honestly. If you just keep talking about it long enough, you will brow-beat women into believing you.
(For what it is worth, I would appreciate that you take the same approach with the Ryan budget, which is also an election-year winner for you, especially if you take the approach that brow-beating America with the rightness and righteousness of your position will eventually win out.)
