And now comes another Republican with another comment offensive to women. In my last column about Paul Ryan's war on women, I emphasize the damage to women from Republican opposition to women's pay equity, Social Security and Medicare. Now we have Rep. Todd Akin (R-Mo.) making deeply offensive comments about "legitimate rape,” following House Republican opposition to House Democratic efforts to protect women from violence. And now we have a large group of House Republicans embarrassing our nation and their party in a trip to Israel, including, in behavior that should be reprimanded by every conservative Christian, nude bathing!

Republicans have a big problem with women.
