Washington, DC -- A new scandal has erupted for the campaign of presidential candidate Barack Obama and it involves the issue of abortion. New reports indicated Obama's campaign asked an anti-domestic violence group to find a rape victim to attack John McCain and Sarah Palin on abortion or the so-called rap kit hubbub.

Wow - by 0bama’s standards, nobody’s off-limits for political exploitation. This makes me sick to my stomach (like the reprehensible ad he’s playing here in Michigan regarding stem cell research that plays on the emotions of mothers).
No.......you’re kidding.
The Obama campaign would not stoop that low....would it?
I heard about this.
Sickening.
...meanwhile Obama’s “Truth Squads” are silencing critics....
If this is true, I hope the subject of abortion comes up in the debate Thursday. Sarah can say how she is against abortion and say how Obama is looking for a rape victim to fight in favor of abortion. Then she can say the Democrats thing it is OK for a baby surviving an abortion should not be given medicat attention and be left to die. That they think it is fine for an abortion to be performed if the parents are not pleased with the sex of their baby and it is fine to abort a full term baby if you just decided you don’t want the baby after carring it for nine months!
Just let the Obama/biden ticket try to claim anything Sarah said is not true!!!
Democrats blast rape victim ad in Oregon Senate race
Well, Nine years ago my wife was raped in a hospital parking lot while I was in intensive care from cancer surgery. It was a bad experience at a terrible time, but nine months later we were blessed with a baby boy who is the joy of our lives. Hardly a day goes by that I don’t thank God for giving my wife the moral strength to not get an abortion, with no help from me, I should add. There are tough times to come. Already he wonders why he doesn’t have blue eyes and light skin like his brothers and sisters, his mommy and daddy, so the day will come when we will have to tell him the truth, but he will be so well loved, he’ll understand the bigger truth, that his life is precious.
...Rape is not an automatic excuse for an abortion. I don’t pass any judgment on women who have been traumatized by rape, but I do direct them to Christ when they need help with deciding what to do. I’m so glad he was with us.
You are a good man and may God Bless you and your family!!
I’ve always been pro-life, but in the past felt exceptions could be made for rape/incest. Now, barring a despicable rape or act of incest on a child (say 10-12), I feel that abortion is no longer an option there either. Good counseling and support can help a rape victim heal. The innocent life produced from a violent act is still that - innocent.
May God continue to always bless you, your wife and your precious little boy.
