On Wednesday, Mother Jones pointed out that state Sen. Richard H. “Dick” Black, who is running to take over retiring Rep. Frank Wolf’s seat, had fought against making spousal rape a crime because the woman was “sleeping in the same bed, she’s in a nightie.”

"Just days after announcing the Black for Congress Exploratory Committee, The Weekly Standard posted a video that my democratic challenger distributed during my last election, falsely implied that I voted against a spousal rape bill. In fact, I voted for the bill".

As a victim of spousal rape, I have to say that your post, sir, is a vile abomination of epic proportions.

Sounds like just another faux outrage generating attempt and dirty pre-election politics by leftist rag Mother Jones.

The man never said rape was okay! He never implied that spousal rape is okay! What he simply and clearly said was that he does not know how one can PROVE spoual rape when:

1. The husban and wife sleep in the same bed together every night.
2. The wife was already basically undressed.
3. They slept together in the past. (Important Point)
4. Lastly, there's NO INJURY. (Important Point)

I dont know which is worse. There is no such thing a spousal rape. Rape is Rape. No one is asking him to prove anything. Lets let the trained investorgators handel the evidence.

Who gives a flying flip what this idiot thinks.
