Am I the only person (man or woman) from Colorado (or elsewhere in the U.S.) who finds the President's remarks about rape quite offensive given the type of people he associates with. In case you don't know, that is Kobe Bryant. The type of person Obama looks up to so much that he gives him a pass on rape. Yes Mr. President... rape IS rape, until it is someone you like. That is not how it works. Randall says: "Friends don't let friends rape young ladies." FOLLOWING IS THE ASSOCIATED PRESS STORY: President Barack Obama says a GOP Senate candidate's comments on rape are "offensive." Obama said at a news conference Monday that comments by Missouri Congressman Todd Akin do not make sense. Obama said, "Rape is rape" and said the idea of distinguishing among types of rape "doesn't make sense to the American people and certainly doesn't make sense to me."
