In a 2008 Speech, Todd Akin Said Doctors Give Abortions to Women ‘Who Are Not Actually Pregnant’
[Quote]:
It turns out that Todd Akin’s “legitimate rape” comment might not be the most inaccurate and stupid statement of the Missouri Representative’s career. In a 2008 speech on the House floor, Rep. Akin said (emphasis mine):“You find that along with the culture of death go all kinds of other law-breaking: Not following good sanitary procedure, giving abortions to women who are not actually pregnant, cheating on taxes, all these kinds of things.”
“All of these things are common practice,” Akin continued, “but all of that information is available for America.”
Just think about that for a second. “Abortions to women who are not actually pregnant.” Absolutely mindboggling.

Some should Todd this talking bobble head http://www.toysrus.com/product/index.jsp?productId=4400954 which says “This is medically impossible” (among other things)
Some should Todd = Someone should get Todd
He’s probably referring, in his confused way, to a D&C (dilation and curettage) which was formerly used for abortion but is now more often used to correct other nasty uterine difficulties.
Someone must have told him he had to be concerned with women’s issues and he misunderstood.
