Tebow anti-abortion ad in the Super Bowl just free speech
I admire Florida football star Tim Tebow, both for what he does on the field and for who he is off the field. By all accounts he tries to live his Christian faith, and I’ve never been bothered by his efforts to proselytize. Even in the Biblical citations he wears in his eyeblack, he shows the good manners to proclaim his faith quietly without questioning or condemning that of others. OK by me.
Tebow is now the focus of a bit of controversy involving an anti-abortion ad in which he stars with his mother. The ad, sponsored by James Dobson’s Focus on the Family, will air during the Super Bowl, and some pro-choice groups are protesting the ad’s acceptance by CBS. They do have a point.
As the Washington Post reports, the Women’s Media Center and other groups “questioned how and why the network, which used to forbid ‘advocacy’ advertising, agreed to air Focus on the Family’s spot, which is valued at $2.5 million to $3 million.”
“The media center also noted that as recently as 2004, CBS had rejected an ad from the United Church of Christ, which wanted to use the Super Bowl as a chance to tell people it welcomes gay members. The center says CBS also has rejected ads in the past from MoveOn.org and People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals.”
The question of fairness is legitimate, but if this is really a new policy at CBS that will be extended to other causes as well, liberal and conservative, fine. The previous policy — designed not to offend anybody — never really made sense anyway, not in an advertising culture where discussion of four-hour erections and urinary problems have become standard.
And if Tebow wants to use his hard-earned fame to promote causes that he believes in, fine as well. I just hope he picks his spots carefully and stays wary about how others want to use him.

US in UK,
You completely miss the point. The object of this whole thing is to prevent the pregnancy before it happens. The issue that is central to this whole thing is the irresponsibility of the prospective parents. If it is that easy to get an abortion, why be responsible? We can just do away with it and it’s even legal, for God’s sake. We pass legislation every year in an attempt to save lives, on the road, with product safety, through TSA and homeland security….. the list goes on and on. But we ignore the fact that under our very noses, we are allowed to commit infanticide with impunity and call it “choice”. The only instance where a mother can commit murder by killing her own child and get away with it. The lady that drowned all of her children in the bath tub in SC…… what’s the difference?

oh, and btw, Kayaker (and others) – I use the term “donor womb” because the woman in this situation seems to rate with you people not at all. she and her rights are secondary.
Well, it’s not like it’s their body being discussed. By the way, I hear the Taliban are being put back in power in Afghanistan. Some of the Taliban were invited out to Texas many years back. I think they hit it off with some of the folks they met. I’m sure they shared ideas.

The best point on this blog is the person who pointed out that by protesting this ad, it got more publicity than it would have without the protest.
If no one would have brought it up, it would be a minor topic of conversation the week after the super bowl sandwiched somewhere between “That Frito Lays Commerical was hilarious” and “I don’t know how they can even call themselves ‘The Who’ without Entwhistle or Moon”

Abortion, with some limits, is legal in the USA per the Supreme Court.
Spending $3 million on an ad seems to be a waste of money, but it will probably make the donors happy & keep fund raising going.
You know only five people need to be convinced to change the legality of abortion, five on the Court. As of the 2008 term of the court the five were not there.
Maybe the Family Council would have gotten more bang for the buck if they had taken the $3 million and opened an abortion alternative clinic, home & adoption service. As always, I would happily contribute to such an effort.

The bottom line is if CBS is going to open the door to Focus on Family advertising, then they are opening the door to every single political/social advertiser that has the pockets to pay…is this really what you want to be watching during the Super Bowl?
Add to the fact a great majority of the people watching will be drinking and a good portion will be in public places, GA’s gun laws (or lack thereof) mixed with the divisive political/social advertising and you have a lovely scenario of potential violence. Way to go CBS.

what “whole thing”??? the ad??? really??? the ad talks about the importance of birth control???
and you seem to have some kind of misconception (get it? misconception? I slay me) that birth control always works – that condoms never break, that the pill is foolproof, that IUDs work without a safety net.

Paul:
You’ll find this interesting. I was reading about an anti-abortion rally whereby many young people were in attendance. The reporter (liberal) covering the event said that some were opposed due to religious convictions. Many were opposed because of the unsustainable tax burden they’ll be shouldering without any help from their friends (babies).
Glenn over at Wooten’s used to be offended by my reference to the unborn as a natural resource. He backed off a bit when I said they were a source of love, intellectual talent, and yes…..government revenue.
Facts are facts, and that’s one the progressives choose to ignore. Unsustainable costs.

My wife on the borth of the 3rd had the same CHOICE as she was told perhaps either she or the bay would not survive the pregnancy,, she choice and both are alive 30 years later and doing well.
The point is these WOMEN HAD A choice and made their CHOICE.. All other women have that same right and should continue to have it.
The Taliban makes choices for women,, why a young girl recently was raped and got pregnant, she got the lash for getting pregnant.

So should I tell my son it is his choice to steal or not, as in my opinion that would be telling him it is ok to steal.
I only say that because i rarely if ever see any who are pro-choice preface their pro-choice statements with anything close to I disagree with the procedure but I feel it is their choice.
Do youalso agree that it should be people’s choice to kill whomever they want? I mean what if they consider the person they kill a threat to them.

An open and serious question to those who would ban abortion/make it once again illegal.
What is a reasonable alternative to this problem?
I think even many of you would agree that teaching abstinence only, for example, is ludicrously ineffective.

US in UK,
Condoms break, IUDs don’t always work, mistakes happen….. right. But I wonder how many of the 1.21M babies destroyed in this country last year were victims of the above or just plain irresponsibility. It seems to take two people to create one of these little things. it’s just too easy to do away with the mistake, all in about 15min., and then you’re free to go out and do it again. And Bozo even wanted the American taxpayer to fund this irresponsible behavior. If the Muslims destroyed a city in the US of 1.21m people, we would never stop talking about it. But it’s only a fetus. What the hell. We can always produce another one.

This “choice” stuff is a bunch of crap. Otherwise, why don’t i have a choice to abort any of my ex-wives. A fetus, while dependant on the mother for support, is no less alive than any of my ex-wives. In fact, given the stage of development at which brainwaves become apparent, a ftus is more alive than any of my ex-wives. Current abortion law is wrongly based on a made-up right of privacy that is not present in the constitution and dated science from the 1960’s. Roe v. Wade should be overturned and remanded to the rightful place for decision, the states. I know the good people of Georgia would ban abortion and promote life.

Screen cleaner! Quick. It’s dripping off the screen.

Abortion, out of sight – out of mind. Personal choice of those involved, let God sort it out.

ty webb,
“but why should someone have adopted a baby to be against abortion.”
A put your money where your mouth is kinda thing. It’s easy to be for or against something, but if one wants to truly make abortion non-palatable there must be a solition to the unwanted babies and the conditions that led to an unwanted baby in the first place.
Otherwise, it’s just a bunch of hot air.

It’s a football game — why can’t the network just show funny commercials like they normally do. Bringing such controversial topics to such a fun event will not be pleasant for anyone.

USinUK,
We wish she would have had a choice also. You also have that choice today…..a tall building…..the feeling of flight for about 5 seconds…….pain no more.
