Planned Parenthood Virginia PAC has launched a new website aimed at Republican gubernatorial candidate Bob McDonnell. The site seeks to “educate voters about McDonnell’s real record on women’s health.”
The site features this video:
Bob McDonnell’s positions on reproductive health care put him at odds with the vast majority of Virginians. It’s not just that he opposes a woman’s right to choose, even in cases of rape or incest. He is out of the mainstream on commonsense, preventive measures like birth control, emergency contraception and comprehensive sex education.
McDonnell’s attempts to hide his record prompted Planned Parenthood Virginia PAC to initiate an online campaign that includes a website, online advertising, and social media.
“Bob McDonnell has voted against women’s health throughout his entire career. His record shows that if elected Governor, women in Virginia will take a giant step backwards,” said Jessica Honke, Director of Public Policy, Planned Parenthood Advocates of Virginia. “We want to make sure voters are well-informed about his stance on issues that really matter to women and their health. We believe that when people find out about Backwards Bob McDonnell, it will influence their vote in November.”
Yeah, like there’s any chance that a bill banning abortion even in cases of rape and incest would get through the legislature, AND pass Constitutional muster.
How about a REAL issue?

Why don’t you woman just do what what men like Burka Bob tell you to do?
