A 57-year-old woman was raped by an intruder in her home, who came back a second time to further victimize her. Between attacks the brave woman borrowed a friend’s shotgun and she killed the career criminal before he could rape her again:

Hecate’s Crossroad points out that Barack Obama voted against a law that would have protected people who defended themselves with firearms in situations like this from criminal prosecution.

In other words Obama, and much of the left, believe that in the above situation the woman should have accepted being raped a second time, and possibly being killed, because there is some sort of moral responsibility for Americans to martyr themselves to criminals. I’ve often said liberalism is a secularization of the worst aspects of Judeo-Christian morality such as the notion that you have a responsibility to “turn the other cheek” when attacked and the deification of pacifism, and the childish views liberals have on something so basic as a person’s right to defend themselves prove that.

If you want to live in an America where women are expected to simply lay down and take it when a rapist breaks into their houses by all means vote for Barack Obama. But if you think the woman above should be applauded for ending the reign of terror that this rapist inflicted on dozens of unidentified victims, vote McCain/Palin.

I’m paraphrasing, but even sweetened up for the stump this is what we all wanted from McCain for the last several weeks:

The only thing that could make this more awesome is if he said “We didn’t fight the commies for 50 years to let one take over now!” or something similar. Country First! Vote McCain/Palin

Via Hot Air:

I’m With Fred I’ll be voting McCain/Palin.

I’m paraphrasing the argument made in this N.R.A. political ad:

It is the most basic right all humans are naturally endowed with, the right to defend your life and that of your loved ones. Obama voted four times to take that right from you. Will you vote to give him a chance to try for number five? Country First!

Via Hillbuzz we see that Democrats being left behind by the socialist takeover of their party are doing the heavy lifting for Republicans. We should have as much energy as the PUMAS:

Country First! Vote McCain/Palin
