What's next, attacking disabled military veterans?

Obama ad goes to war with abortion survivor
Quote:
Video slams woman for 'despicable lie'
--WND


In the increasing flurry of this election's negative political ads, the Barack Obama campaign produced a TV commercial that not only attacks Republican rival John McCain, but also takes aim at an unusual target: a 31-year-old woman who was born alive after her mother's botched abortion.

Obama's commercial predictably takes shots at the GOP campaign, calling John McCain's ads "the sleaziest ever, truly vile." But when the screen shows clips of abortion survivor Gianna Jessen and the ad she made asking Obama to reverse his stance on born alive infant protection legislation, the Obama ad calls Jessen's appeal "a despicable lie."

<snip>

In the response ad from the Obama campaign, the video shows clips of Jessen's advertisement with a female voice saying, "Now, votes taken out of context accusing Obama of letting infants die. It's a despicable lie."

Obama did, however, vote against Illinois born-alive infant-protection bills four times, as Jessen's ad claims.

Obama has often said, and his own website repeats, that he would have supported the Illinois state law protecting those born-alive infants if it had had a "neutrality" clause like the federal version, which states the law specifically is not intended to impact the status of babies before birth.

As WND reported earlier, however, documentation uncovered by Doug Johnson of the National Right to Life Committee reveals Obama did vote against a version of the Illinois law that was the same as the federal law, contrary to what the candidate has stated.


They have attacked McCain and his inability to use a computer (due to his injuries from torture during his years of captivity by the North Vietnamese), Charlie Rangle had referred to Sarah Palin as "disabled", they have insulted and slandered the military for years, even forcing many to undergo Courts Martials based on enemy propaganda and rantings of traitors like Jack Murtha....the Obama-Biden ticket is a ticket to Hell for this country. In prior times, they would have been tarred and feathered and ridden out of town on a rail...but with the run up in the price of crude, the environmentalists choking down the lumber industry, and every bird in sight "protected", we have a shortage of tar, feathers, and rails. Sad

BO is also using 'dishonorable' in his ads / comments at McCain.

I take that as a direct counter slam from Kerry's 'dishonorable' conduct in the past.

He's putting in a subtle - to some - dig.
