Wendy Davis, the State Senator from Texas who is also the Democrat gubernatorial candidate, was partying it up with the Hollywood elite on Thursday in L.A. Those radical progressives from California who would like to help turn Texas blue paid upwards of $25,000 to the campaign of Davis for the privilege of attending a ‘soiree’ in her honor. Davis was catapulted to national fame and earned the name Abortion Barbie when she filibustered a proposed bill in Texas that would end late-term abortions. The bill would have also required doctors performing abortions to have hospital admitting privileges. Her antics proved unsuccessful and the bill became law.

Davis’s visit to L.A. was met with more than just the bright lights of the big city of glitzy Hollywood.  Twenty life-sized posters depicting Wendy Davis as “Abortion Barbie” was placed throughout Los Angeles just ahead of her fundraiser.

The posters say “Hollywood Welcomes Abortion Barbie, Wendy Davis”. The life-sized Barbie pic has Wendy Davis’ face as Barbie, a plastic baby in her belly, and a pair of scissors next to her near a baby’s head.

Since Davis stood up and fought against making abortions more safe for women and advocated strongly for the killing of the baby during even a late pregnancy stage, one would think she would proudly embrace her depiction. After all, it is simply a pictorial representation of her advocacy in support of abortion, even during the late –term. 

Of course, the Davis campaign is attempting to use the posters as a way to attack her GOP opponent Greg Abbott, despite the fact that he had nothing to do with the posters. According to Newsbusters, Kathryn Stuard, a conservative woman from Midland, Texas, paid the conservative artist “Sabo” to design and hang the posters.

MySanAntonio.com reports that Stuard, a 53-year old woman who made her money in the oil business, said of the posters, “It hits people with the truth. The artist is very edgy…I do support (Greg) Abbott but the campaign had nothing to do with these (posters).”
