Ed's note: This story which has spread like wildfire in the last couple of hours is completely bogus, and was based on a parody. People began reprinting the story when they saw multiple links on the web. Not even Congressman Akin is that dumb. I think?
Missouri U.S. senate candidate Todd Akin has stirred up—if this is possible—even more outrage today by claiming that male homosexuality is a disease and that the medical establishment has a cure available.
The beleaguered and vilified Republican congressman, already under fire for his controversial comments about rape, told a reporter for Cape Giradeau's KBSI 23 News that "female breast milk - when fed directly to an adult homosexual male daily for at least four weeks - has a 94% chance of permanently curing homosexual perversions."
"This may surprise you Jeff, but I don't think homosexuality is a choice. We evangelicals, we know that it's a disease. But the good news is - we have the cure."
From Political Hotwire:
"Akin then explained, "The National Institutes of Health has treated hundreds of young men through clinical trials at their headquarters in Maryland. They don't want the public to know because the secular liberal elites have succeeded in brainwashing the public into believing that homosexuality is a positive thing."
"We now know how to purge men of sin and putt them on a path towards god. Why can't every gay man in America have that knowledge? Just 4 weeks of live breastfeeding can cure them of their terrible suffering. Why aren't we talking about this?"
"Somewhat dumbfounded by the brazenness of Akin's pronouncement, the reporter then asked if this supposed treatment only worked on men."
"Lesbians can be cured by drinking something else," Akin replied "I'll leave that one to your imagination."
