As Twitchy reported earlier today, liberals have been busy today trying to portray Richard Mourdock, Republican nominee for the U.S. Senate in Indiana, as pro-rape. At a debate in Indiana Tuesday evening, he argued that “even when life begins in that horrible situation of rape, that it is something that God intended to happen.”
Obama’s surrogates have been pushing the pro-rape narrative hard today, and the official Barack Obama Twitter feed isn’t letting it go either. Pro-lifers are pushing back, however.
Hey @BarackObama, why do you suppose God allows bad things to happen? Or do you not believe God is all-powerful?

@BarackObama Wait, I thought you were a Christian? If you actually were, you'd know God is present at every conception, wanted or otherwise.

Hey Media (cough, MSNBC; CNN) & @BarackObama. ALL children are a gift from God. Could this be what Murdock meant? All Christians agree, btw.

The Obama campaign is convinced that tying Mitt Romney to Mourdock will scuttle his campaign.
RT if you agree: Romney must withdraw his support of Mourdock—who'd force rape victims to bear an attacker's child as "God intended."

The Obama campaign needs a counterbalance against Romney’s extreme anti-woman stance. But who’s available in the Democrat party to stand as a spotless champion of women and defender of lady parts? Look who’s talking now.
