Any exceptions you make to something as strong as a pro-life stance become, effectively, sacred. The idea of someone faking a rape become a very salient situation when you have this as an exception to a strong belief, however rare it might be in reality.

The alternative explanation is that it's an off the cuff remark and didn't really mean anything.
