Missy Reilly Smith has launched an ad campaign in an effort to capture the at-large congressional seat held by Eleanor Holmes Norton. The problem is, her platform is severely limited. In fact, aside from school vouchers, abortion appears to be the ONLY issue in her campaign. This makes it not so much an attempt to garner votes as it is an opportunity to air fetus porn extremely graphic anti-abortion advertising.















The script for those who choose not to view this graphic video

"...Killed two of my babies by abortion. I was told 'It's not a baby.' They lied to me. They exploited me. Then I learned the truth and I suffered for years and believe me, I AM angry. My heart has been ripped out. Obama. Pelosi. Reid. Norton. They all support the murder of babies and the abuse of women by abortion. It's time to make child killing illegal again. I am Missy Smith and I approve this message.







Now admittedly, this woman has suffered. So much so that she is airing her grief on television. That's a LOT of pain and suffering. For all of that pain, I hope and wish for the healing of her heart.





We continue to be baffled by all of the Tea Party craziness coming from the Right, but even they balked at airing the ads.

Paul Craney, the D.C. GOP's executive director, said today that Smith approached him months ago about her run for Congress. "I asked her not to run for it ... because she said she wanted to put up ads about abortion on TV," Craney said. "It wasn't really a campaign. It's just ads about abortion. If you want to run a campaign, it's about giving a different set of ideas that's about schools, that's about crime, that's about spending your money better." "Her tactics seem to be out of sync with the city," Craney added.





In her words:

"I am running for Congress in Washington D.C. with the express purpose of running political ads on tv of graphic pictures of healthy and dead babies. ... [H]ere I am, Missy "Reilly" Smith, in 'the belly of the beast,' Washington D.C. on the ballot running against big government, pro-child killing, same sex marriage incumbent Eleanor Holmes Norton. ... [T]ell everyone you know to dig deep into their pockets and give until it hurts, as Mother Teresa would say. We know these ads will save babies and get the dialogue started that is so needed. No one can see these ads and not realize that abortion is murder."





According to her website, the ads are scheduled to run in the DC market as follows :

ABC (ABC7 WJLA) during the 5 PM news

NBC (WRC) during the 5 PM news

CBS (WUSA News 9) during the 5 PM news and during David Letterman (11:30)

FOX (Fox 5) during the 11 PM news





So now you have been warned. If you are coming for the Stewart/Colbert rallies, do not sit down to dinner with the local news on.
