Actually is a demonstration that “the sharp-tongued Wonkette” has nothing to talk about. Shows poorly on “Wonkette” who openly and wantonly displays ignorance in the post, not Akin who made a simple mistake.

Simple mistake? My 5 year old wouldn’t make that mistake, especially after making a serious charge that ‘liberals hate the pledge’. Beardon your another kool-aid drinking republican. Imagine if Pelosi did this.

And to compound the issue Minority Leader Boehner doesn’t know the difference between the consitution and the declaration of indepedence.

Its no wonder the GOP puts forth a bill Healthcare bill that doesnt have cost containment measures, doesnt repeal the insurance industry anti-trust, doesnt mandate insurance companies coverage pre-existing conditions, and only covers 3 million more americans by 2019. I’d be ashamed to even put that bill in front of the American people.

And Carl Beardon is defending this, why is this not surprising? How much are you getting paid as a lobbyist now-a-days?

Mr Bearden is correct in his thought: Akin is a simple mistake.

Just think what would have happened if Congressman Akin would have said we have 57 states? Oh wait, let’s overlook THAT simple mistake or the simple mistake of saying America is NOT a Christian nation. Idiots.

Its no wonder the liberals put out a 2,000 page health care bill that will add trillions to the deficit, remove their precious voters off medicare, add taxes to the working class, do nothing about the healthcare problem, add layers of bureacracy and then won’t be fully implemented until 2019. Oh and then gets mad when people point out that none of them have actually read the bill.

Carl Bearden is right.

Sure, he just misspoke. Everybody does it. It’s just pretty darn funny when you misspeak in the middle of the Pledge of Allegiance while being a sanctimonious jerk about how you have a better claim on “patriotism” than the rest of us.

If you’re going to talk about how much more you love the Pledge of Allegiance than us lefty-pinkos, get the words right. We do.

Akin screwed it up because he got so excited about shouting “under G-d” that he forgot we are “one nation…indivisible”.

It’s a control word he froze up on, that the Communists imbed in all their sleeper cell agents. Akin is now activated.

If I decide to run against him next year, again, I’m going to beat him, but not this issue; this is just silly; must be the slowest news day in history, but we know better, dont we. I make more misspeaks than that on a good day before coffee in the morning (but not many after). He’s a nice guy; he’s human; my betting is that given a choice and enough money to get the message out, he doesnt well reflect the more moderate majority values of the district.

I will give you kudos for not verbally slapping Akin for a minor mistake.

Save your time and money, you won’t come close to beating Akin. He is a great Congressman and more honest and smarter than his counterparts in the First and Second District.

He has earned our trust and the citizens of the Second District recognize he is good for America and Missouri. Akin accurately reflects the pro-America, pro-family, Conservative, Christian values of the Second District.

I DO believe that Representative Akin forgot his train of thought after emphasizing the words ‘under God’ in the Pledge. It’s an honest slip; no big deal…

The fact that The Beacon, the online continuation of liberal journalism by former Post-Dispatch staffers, would make hay of this is silly…and does nothing to dispel the left-wing bias that most people believe journalists possess.
