Flashback: McCain joked about how much women love to be raped.»

The blog Rum, Romanism and Rebellion pulls out a 1986 Tucson Citizen article recounting a joke about rape told by Sen. John McCain (R-AZ). Speaking to the National League of Cities and Towns in Washington, DC, McCain allegedly said:

Did you hear the one about the woman who is attacked on the street by a gorilla, beaten senseless, raped repeatedly and left to die? When she finally regains consciousness and tries to speak, her doctor leans over to hear her sigh contently and to feebly ask, “Where is that marvelous ape?”

McCain was swiftly criticized by women’s groups. A spokeswoman for NOW in Arizona said the organization’s members were “incensed by his cruel and sexist remark.” McCain said he did not “recall” telling the joke. More recently, the McCain campaign scheduled a fundraiser with a Texas oilman who compared rape to the weather while running for governor. “As long as it’s inevitable, you might as well lie back and enjoy it,” said Clayton Williams in 1990. After public outcry, the event was “postponed."

1. I think McCain's telling the truth

In the sense that he honestly doesn't remember saying that because his memory is going.

2. These days any outrage would be labeled "lack of a sense of humour"

:mad:

4. Sigh. I hear you. nt

3. And he calls his wife a "c*nt" in front of reporters. What a charmer, that guy. -eom

17. Well, c'mon---she was late. Wouldn't anyone call their wife a trollop c*nt for putting on makeup

7. What A Sick Fuck

creepy old perverted men say shit like this shit!

[hedgehog]

8. I suspect that this is the cleaned up version of an old dirty joke

and that it wasn't a gorilla in the original!

[DCKit]

19. Even better.... say it was Obama and the Republicon women will be swooning....

with "jungle fever".

Hell, it's not as if the wives are getting any at home. Between the pool boys, office boys, pliable hookers, aides and random hook-ups, what respectable Republicon has the energy to boink his own wife?

[Diane R]

9. Yet some women's groups vow to vote for McCain to punish Obama if he doesn't name Hillary VP.

[knitter4democracy]

12. That makes no sense to me at all.

Why would you vote for such a sick p.o.s.?

10. K & R!

13. I'm so tired, too, of the "don't recall" lie being taken at face value. nt

15. I saw some dog shit in the park today. It reminded me of McCain.

Asshole.

16. Oh Yes...I've always thought "Rape Jokes" are SO Funny.

:mad:

Typical Repug Shit....all about Power. (Rape is not about Sex..per se...)

18. "women love to be raped"? - now how would Johnny know...?

[HCE SuiGeneris]

20. Champion for the PUMAs. How twisted is that?

:sigh:

21. OLD sexist PIG

I would kick his withered nuts to the roof of his mouth if he said shit like that within my earshot. I don't care who he thinks he is.
Rape is NOT a joke and women do not "ask for it".
McCain is a psychopath asshole scumbag warmonger sexist abusive pig.
Some males(the abusive ones like McCain) do not deserve anything but to be despised by all women and decent men.
