Video - Focus on the Family Broncos Playoff Game Commercial

Focus on the Family took advantage of the media surrounding Tim Tebow and his values of God and family.  This is a great commercial.

It seems that more and more people are getting the hang of Tebowing.  The CBS Postgame show after Tim Tebow throws the winning touchdown to advance the Broncos over the Steelers.

Good for you Tim.

Liberal Logic - NOW's Reaction to Tebow Ad

The over-hyped Tebow family ad has now aired. The ad was nothing more than mom talking about almost losing her baby. It was playful and sweet. The ad was done to draw attention to the website; it never mentioned abortion. Towards the end of the ad, it looks like Tim has tackled his mother. It was a playful lighthearted family moment.  


Since the pro choice people who were screaming about this ad can't admit to having egg on their faces this is what they come up with:

In remarks that are raising eyebrows from pro-life advocates, NOW President Terry O'Neill said that bit of the ad glorified violence against women.



"I am blown away at the celebration of the violence against women in it," she told the Los Angeles Times. "That's what comes across to me even more strongly than the anti-abortion message. I myself am a survivor of domestic violence, and I don't find it charming. I think CBS should be ashamed of itself."



Abortion advocate Amanda Marcotte had this post on Twitter that has drawn a reaction from pro-life advocates:



"Hey Mom! Tried to kill you from the womb and failed. How about a blind side tackle? Violence against Moms."



One of the saddest parts of this is there was another commercial for a candy bar (snickers I think) with Betty White, who was shown to be tackled and brought down into the dirt, but NOTHING was said about this. On the newscast I saw after the game, they named this the most popular commercial of the game. Apparently, tackling little old ladies is fine with them.

This only proves that their complaint is really against a woman who chose life. Pro abortion advocates refer to people as Anti-Choice, what is closer to the truth is that they are anti-life.

Publicity Whore Allred Weighs in Tebow Superbowl Commercial

Gloria Allred, the publicity whore, is at it again. This time she has decided to weigh in on the Tebow’s commercial that is due to air during the superbowl. She has decided that if the ad doesn’t meet with her approval she is going to file a lawsuit on the grounds of false advertising. Her argument is that if the Tebow’s don’t explain that abortion is illegal in the Philippines. One of the many problems with Ms. Allred’s view is that the Philippines does have an exemption when the life of the mother is at risk.



This is a woman that can’t resist getting herself involved in things that will put her on the air. Every time you turn around the woman is on television yapping about something or another. She has had a long career taking cases of the disadvantaged, but she has also had a long career using the legal system to promote her own particular view of the world. She has sued the Boy Scouts for gender discrimination for not letting in girls, which she actually referred to it as gender apartheid. What the little girl couldn’t go into the girl scouts? What a waste of tax payer money and resources.


She has been involved with the Octomom, the Scott Peterson case, the nipple ring controversy with the TSA (The woman didn’t realize that her rings may set off the metal detectors?), Rob Lowe’s nanny on sexual harassment, Britney Spears’ bodyguard, gay marriage, Michael Jackson’s kids, and most recently one of Tiger’s mistresses. Wherever there is a chance to get herself in the papers and on TV; there she is.


What is most telling is that she is saying that no woman should live in a country where abortion is illegal. Umm, Ms. Allred abortion is not illegal in this country; and Tebow’s commercial certainly isn’t going to make it so. This is simply a way for her to get her views out there. My question is who cares what your views are? Ms. Allred you are almost 70 years old, maybe it is time that you take the millions that you have made over the years and ride out to the sunset and leave the rest of us alone. If someone wants to hire you, then fine. But please, stop wasting tax payer resources to hoist your views on the rest of us. We don’t care what you think.

Tebow, Palin, and The National Organization for Woman

The rhetoric regarding the Tebow commercial is heating up yet again.  Sarah Palin released a statement on her facebook page praising CBS's decision to run the ad, and saying that the women's group should realize that choosing life is indeed a choice.  NOW has released a statement of their own. 



“The goal of the Focus on the Family ad is not to empower women. It's to create a climate in which Roe v. Wade can be overturned,” O’Neill said. “There are always going to be women who need abortions. In this country, one in three women will have an abortion.”

Are they saying that one in three women NEEDS to have an abortion? There is a difference between women who, let's say, have a life threatening medical condition during their pregnancy and may have to make that heart wrenching choice and someone who didn't use protection. One in three women is an astounding number.




I have a conflicted view on abortion, but one thing that I am not conflicted about is a woman who is simply making the "choice" that it isn't convenient. There are women who don't protect themselves the way that they should if they are going to be having sex and are not prepared to become a parent. Having sex is a choice. Taking responsibility for that choice is something that organizations like NOW should be addressing.


Being a woman who has severe medical problems that have caused infertility issues, it strikes a chord in me that NOW is saying that woman should have the right to be as casual about something as sacred as a baby. The numbers of women (and men) who cannot have children of their own is very high. Many of these people simply cannot afford the astronomical costs of having IVF. White couples in this country have a very difficult time trying to adopt. The system that is currently in place can be very daunting for people of limited income. Now, if you have a good income or are a person of color, the process becomes relatively easy, or at least easier. 

Why is it that organizations such as NOW and Planned Parenthood don't help women put their child up for adoption? The child will end up in a family that will be so grateful to have the opportunity of being a mom and a dad.


I am willing to say that there are times that women feel that they have no other choice but to end a pregnancy; incest, rape, chance of death that would leave other children behind, and the baby having such severe medical problems that it won't survive. That being said, those woman should feel that having the child in those circumstances is indeed their choice and not be put down for making it. But, for NOW to come out and say that one out of three woman will have an abortion and try to make that seem like it is OK, should not be considered acceptable to anyone. That statistic, if true, is very alarming. That is saying that women are not only irresponsible when it comes to birth control, it is also saying that they are selfish. They also need to address the rights of the men who are the fathers of these children. They have rights too.

Tim Tebow on Life - NOW on Anti-Choice - CBS With a Decision to Make

Tim Tebow, the Heisman Trophy and two time college championship winning football player, and his mom will appear in a 30 second commerical that is due to air on Super Bowl Sunday.  N.O.W. and many other woman's groups are urging CBS to pull the ad.  Tim Tebow's mother was given the advice to abort her pregnancy and instead decided to have her baby, which was her fifth child.  The ad is being done by Focus on the Family, a non profit group that advocates life, Christianity, and family.  The theme of the ad is to celebrate life, celebrate family. 

"An ad that uses sports to divide rather than to unite has no place in the biggest national sports event of the year -- an event designed to bring Americans together," said Jehmu Greene, president of the Women's Media Center.



If it is a day "to bring Americans together", wouldn't an ad about the importance of family be the perfect thing to show? 

"By offering one of the most coveted advertising spots of the year to an anti-equality, anti-choice, homophobic organization, CBS is aligning itself with a political stance that will damage its reputation, alienate viewers, and discourage consumers from supporting its shows and advertisers," the letter said.

One thing that I would really like to know from organizations such as Now is, are you "anti-life'? 

All this woman is saying is that she chose life, and look what happened.  Her son grew up to be a star athlete who won two championships and the most conveted award in college football.  They will be talking about family.  The cornerstone of our society.  When is NOW going to realize that choosing life is indeed a choice. 

And, did you notice, he is hot, too.
