Although I am decidedly Pro-Life . . . when it comes to the likes of our lame brain, idiotic liberals like our Commander in Chief . . . makes me sorry that the NOW gang wasn't as strong a Pro-Abortion presence in the early 60's . . .

Good Grief! Can you liberal lhypocrits NOT see the blatant hypocrisy in what you are saying??? What ever happened to free speech and everything this country and its Constitution stand for???? A mother chooses to give LIFE to a child and you Nazis come unglued??? Has LIberalism become a death cult where choosing life is simply not acceptable to you? Are you so horrifically self-centered that you cannot tolerate the thought of someone choosing the 'inconvenience' of bearing and raising a baby instead of murdering the child because the alternative would be less 'convenient' for your hedonistic lifestyle? You people sicken me.

First, was the comparison of Tebow and Hitler necessary?

Honestly, the commercial didn't say "Women who have an abortion are evil" and it wasn't "preachy." If anything it was a mom who basically made her choice. And from what we have seen and heard of Tebow's life and actions, I think we can agree it was the right choice.

Well, what if Adolph Hitler's mom would have had an abortion - wouldn't that have been lovely!

I counseled about 3,000 girls and women years ago, and about 30 were having a second abortion, and about 30 had previously given up a child for adoption. Guess what? - many of the women with a previous abortion could not remember the month of that procedure - but every one of the women who arranged an adoption knew the exact day as well as month (and never forgot it). Anyone who thinks that adoption in such cases is easy is sadly mistaken. The emotional impact of those adoptions if far more serious than any memory of abortions. Seniorman

Greetings: I'm PRO choice! They should totally allow a man who is thankful to God for life! Jesus came to save lives not to abort them! I'm PRO choice for the baby in the womb! Fight for them in Jesus name!

This is some deeper insight from when the director of Planned Parenthood spoke on Focus on the Family.

I will not be watching CBS this weekend or after. I don't believe this is an appropriate forum for this type of ad. I also don't believe it is an appropriate forum for any issue advocacy ads. It is a sporting event watched by so many people with varying degrees of opinions on many issues. Let's keep it light hearted and fun. Save the judgement for another time.

As for "William Shakespeare" not ever having heard of a woman who had an abortion that was glad she did it, you haven't been talking to a lot of women that have had abortions. I know a few women, including myself, who have had an abortion and don't regret the decision. It was not an easy decision to make and there was a lot of discussion with my family (and particularly with my husband) about the consequences of such a decision. In the end, I felt relief. And I've known others who professed the same feeling.

A foundational natural law of the world is that taking the life of another person is wrong. The fact is that the people who still hold life as precious are ridiculed and labeled as "fanatics" is a shame. I respect the right of an individual to make choices, I also hold that if you make a bad choice you should have to deal with the consequences. If you consciously make the choice to have sex with the risk of getting pregnant unprepared, you can't take the easy way out by killing the result of your choice, which is a child. It is wrong to say that a woman can decide whether to "terminate" that pregnancy because it might affect her life in a negative way. She can choose to make the child a part of her life and to change her life to give a baby an opportunity to grow up. I have heard many women express relief at not having an abortion, but I have never met one who did not regret it after they did. The situation is neither good or bad, but thinking makes it so. - William Shakespeare

I think what Tim Tebow and his mother are doing is WONDERFUL to say the least. I support them and Focus on the Family 100%. Why in the world is there SO much greif about this? First of all We are all intitled to our own opinion and freedom of speech and If people can get on TV talking about "Drinking" "Parting",Having multiple partners""giving phone numbers for Homosexual teens for a support line wanting them to come out of the closet".....I don't agree with any of this... Not all of this is on during the superbowl..They are on all the time... I don't agree with half of the nasty filth thats on TV today...LEAVE US ALONE...We don't have the same opinions and thats obvious, but not only do ya'll attack our opinions and feelings you attack our religious beliefs and thats WRONG!!!!!!

Not only will I not watch the game since the Superbowl- has the ability to block the ad- I will think twice about watching CBS- especially now with cable who needs them?

I am also interested in other advertisers who will allow themselves to be placed in proximity to this ad......
