Angela Michael says theres a war on women, but that its Obama who is leading the charge and hes coming to kill your children.
In a despicably graphic and misleading advertisement, Angela Michael, campaigning as an Illinois Democrat for a place in the US House, says that President Obama and Senator Claire McCaskill have launched an attack on women. The ad is full of untruths and scare-tactics.
If you would like to see the ad you can do so here but the link comes with a trigger warning. For the purposes of this article, the transcript will suffice.
Over a backdrop of carved up body tissue, the ad starts:
Theres a war on women
waged by men
who think a pregnant woman is a broken sex toy
and the way to fix her is to kill her baby.
Dont be deterred, this is only a drop of the vitriol to come. Michaels mouthpiece goes on to say:
Obama leads the attack. Obama voted that babies who survive abortion should be left to die.
Its unclear precisely what this is referring to as Obama has never voted that babies should be left to die.

This is how it goes in a lot of smaller, newer, or whatever-else districts, where one party or hte other doesn't (or can't) really offer the resources to contest it, and the other party funds an "opponent" for their guy to run against.

(130,974 posts)Her opponent is a member of congress whose district was re-jiggered, and sounds like Dems didn't want to bother challenging him. (They're ACTUALLY not challenging Boner, either, but here this wackjob decides she wants to run.)
