[Gifset of Obama talking in interview: “I don’t know how these guys come up with these ideas. Let me make a very simple proposition: Rape is rape. It is a crime. So these various distincions about rape don’t make much sense to me-don’t make any sense to me. This is why you don’t want politicians, mostly male, making decisions about women’s healthcare. Women are capable of making these decisions in consultations with their partners, with their doctors. For politicians to want to intrude in this stuff, often times without proper information, is a huge problem.”]

President Obama responds to rape statement (below) from Senate candidate Richard Mourdock:

“I struggled with it myself for a long time but I came to realize, life is a gift from god and even if life begins in the horrible situation of rape it is something god intended to happen.”
