Obama supporters and leading actresses Kerry Washington, Eva Longoria and Scarlett Johansson are putting Mitt Romney on blast for his out-of-date stance on women’s rights and abortion.

In a new ad sponsored by MoveOn.org, the three women attack Romney for wanting to overturn Roe v. Wade, defund Planned Parenthood and his party for redefining rape.
“Mitt Romney’s for ending funding for Planned Parenthood,” says Longoria. Johansson then adds, “including cancer screenings.”
The ad was directed by Oscar-nominated director Rob Reiner, who’s responsible for the films Princess Bride, Misery, and This is Spinal Tap.
In a statement, Reiner said:
Romney-Ryan ticket would “eviscerate women’s rights’ if they were elected in November. ‘We’d be talking about getting rid of abortion, birth control, access to health care screenings. As a husband, son and father, I can’t stand by and let this happen.”
The ad will air across the country, but focus on swing states Colorado and Virginia.
