Right wingnuts are losing it.

For the last couple days, they've been all over the comment blogs claiming the video of Akin's legitimate rape remarks was from a year ago and McCaskill got the TV station to play it on Sunday. Of course that makes no sense - and what difference would it make anyway. But you know wingnuts. They're now convinced Akin's remarks aren't so bad because they were made a year ago.

Then today they've been blasting the internet with a story about Al Franken joking about raping Leslie Stahl. What they are leaving out is that it was a JOKE he wrote while working on Saturday Night Live.

The fact remains, he said it and that demonstrates the true evils of Akin and the GOP.

It's also as stupid as the birther arguments. How did McCaskill know a year ago that Akin would win the primary?
