Campaign Ad Watch: Rape Victim Assails Palin On Choice

Women Against McCain-Palin have released this short, emotionally blunt advertisement in which a young woman relates how Sarah Palin's policies could have played out in her life, to her detriment.

~snip~

It's a fitting reminder of how McCain and Palin would extend the intrusive hand of government into affairs in which it should hold no sway. I'd also remind you that McCain thinks that the those who are concerned about the health and well-being of women are "extreme." I'd remind you that when McCain and Palin disclosed Palin's daughter's pregnancy, they took pains to state that Bristol "made the decision on her own to keep the baby," which makes no sense, since they do not in any way acknowledge that Bristol's choice in the matter, matters. I'd remind you that Sarah Palin believes that rape victims should bear the cost of investigating their own cases. And I'd remind you that when asked to consider what a rape victim should do, given Sarah Palin's antipathy to her plight, a die-hard McCain/Palin supporter said, "She should die." All of these things are worth remembering.

I don't see how any feminist could vote for those two! It pisses me off!

This young lady is my HERO! I am so proud of her, God bless her and her family.

I am very proud of her, that takes a lot of courage to do what she just did.

Welcome to DU!

and increased my anger toward Palin and others who are so cruel they would take away a woman's choice. Sarah Palin is a role-model? Not by a long shot.
