"Palmer police chief Laren Zager said that to his knowledge, no sexual assault victim has ever been billed by the city of Palmer for an exam to collect evidence of a crime. Zager, who has been police chief since January, said he would never expect a victim to be burdened with the cost of a police investigation."

Imagine having survived rape, then having to endure the rape examination and on top of that, being sent a bill for $1,200.00. How many rape victims in Wasilla could not afford the one test that could help catch and convict their rapist? How uncaring of Sarah Palin.

McCain has shown shown he is as callous and uncaring towards victims of sexual assault as Sarah Palin by being against teachers helping parents teach children to how to protect themselves against sexual predators. I am sure he's won the vote of the pedophiles now applauding the greater opportunities his official policy affords them.

John McCain did well in picking a running mate to share his callous views. They fit together like two peas in a pod.
