WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report) — A new poll released Thursday reveals that a broad majority of Americans describe themselves as “deeply unhappy” to have been reminded that the former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin exists.

Palin’s call for the impeachment of President Obama, a ploy to remind people that she still roams the earth, appears to have backfired, the poll shows.



With seventy-two per cent of respondents saying that they were “upset” or “very upset” to be reminded of her existence, Palin is one of three non-officeholders whose recent utterances have traumatized Americans.

According to the poll, eighty-one per cent were upset to be reminded that Ann Coulter exists, while a hundred per cent felt that way about the existence of the former Vice-President Dick Cheney.

In my poll of one, 100% of respondents conclude littlejoe is the best justification for the infanticide known as abortion.

Now, please someone give me some phony advise about cleaning up the level of discourse.

Poll: Americans Want Sarah Palin to Shut Up the Most

by Tina Nguyen | 2:56 pm, July 9th, 2014 1785

A poll conducted by the Wall Street Journal, NBC News, and Annenberg finally gave a numerical answer to a question we at Mediaite often ask ourselves: Out of all political figures that should pipe down just a bit, which one should do it immediately?

Answer: Sarah Palin. Overwhelmingly Sarah Palin, says America.


52% of surveyed American adults want Sarah Palin to “be quiet,” according to the poll taken between June 30 and July 7 — immediately before she published a Breitbart column demanding Obama be impeached. Notably, four out of every ten Republicans surveyed said that Palin should quiet down. (Two-thirds of Democrats and a “majority” of independents agreed with that sentiment.)

45% of respondents added that they wanted Jesse Jackson to be quiet, too; followed by Dick Cheney (42%), Newt Gingrich (39%), Al Gore (37%), and Bill Clinton (31%).

Only 12% surveyed said that the politicians should keep talking.

Numbers don’t lie, people.

The actual survey is almost as comical as Borowitz was-- Palin ranked up there with Jesse Jackson as the leading persons they think should shut up...
Maybe even a few Repubs are realizing she ran folks away from the party in droves when she was the V.P. candidate...

GOP to Todd Akin: Shut up

By ANNA PALMER and TARINI PARTI | 7/10/14 2:25 PM EDT Updated: 7/10/14 3:40 PM EDT



Todd Akin is back talking about rape in his new book and Republicans have a message for him: Shut up.

The Missouri Republican’s memoir offers no apologies for his comments on “legitimate rape,” his bruising loss to Sen. Claire McCaskill or the effect many Republicans say his remarks had on the 2012 field — when the Senate slipped through their fingers.

Several operatives, consultants and politicians didn’t waste any time responding to attacks in the book, “Firing Back: Taking on the Party Bosses and Media Elite to Protect Our Faith and Freedom,” set to be released July 15. A copy was provided to POLITICO early.


“Todd Akin is an embarrassment to the Republican Party and the sole reason Claire McCaskill is still part of Harry Reid’s majority,” said Brian Walsh, who served as communications director for the National Republican Senatorial Committee during the 2012 cycle.

“It’s frankly pathetic that just like Sharron Angle and Christine O’Donnell in 2010, he refuses to take any responsibility for sticking his foot in his mouth, alienating voters and costing Republicans a critical Senate seat. Worse, he’s now trying to make money off his defeat. The sooner he leaves the stage again the better.”

The GOP has vowed to prevent the stumbles on social issues that plagued Republican candidates on the trail last cycle. So its overwhelming reaction to Akin: his five minutes of fame need to be over.

Here's another one that the GOP is wanting to shut up- after he ran away voters in the last election, especially two of the demographics the Republicans have lost more and more of in the last two major elections- women and educated folks ...

Why is Aiken bad when he refers to legitimate rape as opposed to "drag a $100 bill through a trailer court and that's what you get" (James carville doing Klintons bidding) illegitimate rape.

If Aiken is anti women expressed as x, Klinton and the enabling democrat minions anti women factor is x squared. Aiken isn't a polished criminal/politician. Klinton is a sex offender. The entirety of the Democratic Party couldn't care less about abuse of women.

Challenge: show me Klintons oxford degree. Hint: you can't because oxford doesn't approve of on campus rape.

I could care less what Clinton did- or Carville.. I never did care for Clinton...And Carville is almost as good as Borowitz somedays- but just like Borowitz you can't take him seriously..

But now on Akin- apparently you forget his comments?

In a local news interview, on August 19, 2012, discussing abortion, Todd Akin made the claim that victims of what he described as "legitimate rape" very rarely become pregnant. Airing on St. Louis television station KTVI-TV, as he ran as U.S. Representative for Missouri's 2nd congressional district for the U.S. Senate seat held by Claire McCaskill, his response to a question on rape exceptions for abortion was:


Well you know, people always want to try to make that as one of those things, well how do you, how do you slice this particularly tough sort of ethical question. First of all, from what I understand from doctors, that's really rare. If it's a legitimate rape, the female body has ways to try to shut that whole thing down. But let's assume that maybe that didn't work or something. I think there should be some punishment, but the punishment ought to be on the rapist and not attacking the child.

The comments from Akin almost immediately led to uproar, with the term "legitimate rape" being taken to imply belief in a view that some kinds of rape are "legitimate", or alternatively that the victims who do become pregnant from rape may be lying about their claim. His claims about the likelihood of pregnancy resulting from rape were by some seen as being based on ideas like stress (such as what sexual assault victims incur) inducing miscarriage or Dr. John C. Willke's "spastic tubes" theory introduced in 1985 and trauma-based theory introduced in 1999, but these theories are not accepted by the majority of the scientific and medical community.Akin was not the first to make such claims, but was perhaps one of the most recently prominent.

The comment was widely characterized as misogynistic and recklessly inaccurate, with many commentators remarking on the use of the words "legitimate rape". Related news articles cited a 1996 article in an obstetrics and gynecology journal, which found that 5% of women who were raped became pregnant, which equaled about 32,000 pregnancies each year in the US alone. A separate 2003 article in the journal Human Nature estimated that rapes are twice as likely to result in pregnancies as consensual sex.

And not only did that get the Democrat candidate elected as a Senator- but it ran women and educated folks away from the Repubs and the Tea Party... One of the reasons the establishment Repub Party has broke with the Tea Party and campaigning against Tea Party candidates...

And Republicans that realize the damage he did in the last election now want Akin to shut up and forget to remind folks of his comments...

Surely you don't think that everyone in the U.S. based every other Republican candidate against the words of just that one guy?

He did damage to one election. The one he was in...............

Don't even try to tell anyone that. You'll make a fool of yourself again. :roll:

When Dems talk of womens rights and freedom of choice being taken away by grey haired old white men in D.C-- guess who (and his party) automatically comes to mind.. :???:

Now his trying to sell his book and make money off it apparently is not sitting well with the Republicans that don't want him reminding folks of the intellect of some of those that are making those decisions..

OT, what is the pregnancy rate for those that are raped?

Related news articles cited a 1996 article in an obstetrics and gynecology journal, which found that 5% of women who were raped became pregnant, which equaled about 32,000 pregnancies each year in the US alone. A separate 2003 article in the journal Human Nature estimated that rapes are twice as likely to result in pregnancies as consensual sex.





Rep. Todd Akin caused a public outcry Sunday when he suggested that women who were "legitimately raped" would rarely become pregnant. Study after study has proven that theory false. But one provocative study, published in 2003, went even further: It found that a single act of rape was more than twice as likely to result in pregnancy than an act of consensual sex.

The study, "Are per-incident rape-pregnancy rates higher than per-incident consensual pregnancy rates?" was published in the journal Human Nature by Jonathan A. Gottschall and Tiffani A. Gottschall, two professors at St. Lawrence University in Canton, N.Y. They used data from the federally administered National Violence Against Women survey. There, they found a sample of 405 women between the ages of 12 and 45 who had experienced one incidence of rape that included intercourse.

Of those 405 women included in the sample, 6.4 percent — or 26 women — reported a pregnancy that year. A separate large-scale study showed that, for the general population of women that age, the per-incidence pregnancy rate for a single act of intercourse is 3.1 percent.

As to why rape victims would have a higher rate of pregnancy, the Gottschalls put forward a few theories. They look at previous research, which suggests that men are more attracted to women who are fertile and ovulating. In consensual sex, women can decline sex at a time where there might be a high likelihood of pregnancy. That's not the case in rape.

"Rapists do not wait to be chosen, rapists choose," they write. "As such, within the limits of opportunity, rapists would be able to target women bearing cues [of fertility]."

so pregnancy from rape is pretty rare, eh?

If you weren't so dense, you could do the math...

And NO, I am not saying women are cattle...


What % of those 5-7% choose to have an abortion, OT?

Ot, what do you mean you don't care about Klinton? Eventhough he is a reprobate he's a much better man than Obama. The subject is women fleeing one party with a poorly nuanced speaker because that party is anti women . They're fleeing said party for the party headed by an actual sex offender. The only reason I bring up Klinton is to expose the hypocrisy of the whole deal.

Btw I hate political hacks that can't stand up to factual scrutiny so they masquerade as comedians. Boronotwits is an un clever hack.

Not to be overly nit-picky,.. but the poll wasn't even done correctly...

so much for that pro choice ideology.

is it a typical liberal ploy to offer choices?... then deny choices they know conservatives would pick?
