The obsessive Barry haters on the list have missed a chance here. The law of land is as the Supreme Court ruled - no death penalty for child rape. So, Barry's words have no practical effect. So, he can claim to be extremely tough on violent male supremacy, claim the strict feminist high ground, when he knows his radical talk won't have any effect in the real world...well it might send a message to rapists that if he's President, watch out (smile)

Yikes, Barry is really establishing radical feminist creds that would have made Andrea Dworkin proud. Where is the endorsement from Catharine MacKinnon ?

However, Obama didn't just start on this radical feminist line. He sponsored or otherwise played a leading role in passing several laws against violence against women.
