Anti abortion ad to air during Super Bowl

Corkey · 01-22-2010, 05:55 PM

Why not a condom commercial to go hand in hand with the beer commercial?
Geez they think it's always the woman's fault!!! How about some male responsibility for a change.

I kinda made that word up or heard it from elsewhere. *shrug

“I just think it’s a goal to have and other women should have that goal,” said Bristol, appearing on The Oprah Winfrey Show via satellite from Alaska.

WHA? and WHY? A goal for women to remain virgins until they are married? B/c THAT is what ALL women want and/or must have in order to BE women. AND, define virginity?

I Can't Deal.

I agree with Corkey. If they are so concerned cut the beer commercials and show more condem ads.

Oh and can we squeeze in a Public Service Announcement for anti-domestic violence in between the GoDaddy ads?

Here's hoping Tim Tebow knows what he's getting into, though. Does Tim Tebow know that he's supporting an organization that has called gay marriage perverted and has said that homosexuals want to destroy human civilization? Does Tim Tebow know that he's supporting an organization that believes you can repair homosexuality, and that sexual orientation is a condition that can be treated? Does Tim Tebow know he's supporting an organization whose founder has said that sex education strips girls of their modesty?

We could go on.

Oh well. Maybe Tim Tebow has decided that since a future in the NFL is not looking so bright, he can always fall back on the homophobia of the radical religious right to keep his name out there.

Tebow is the deeply religious son of christian missionaries. He probably thinks that this is just swell.

Mister and I learned about this last week. We're boycotting the super bowl this year, and are writing letters to let folks know why.

Almost certainly he does, to the degree he thinks about that at all.

If I were a betting woman (which I'm not) I'd put better than even odds that, in fact, he does.

Again, almost certainly.

One of the things that I think we forget is that the anti-choice movement is also a profoundly anti-sex movement. They believe that sex is sinful EXCEPT in the context of a heterosexual couple and then only when the man is calling the shots and the woman is complying at which point pretty much anything goes. The pro-choice movement would do well to remind the voting public of this.

It's all about $$$$$$$$$ The SB ad space is the most costly time to buy... Open to anyone to purchase so long as their pockets are deep enough, with pretty much any product, service or statement to make... it's all about the almighty dollah !

No, it's not. Other organizations have tried to purchase SB ads and have been refused.

This not about a dollar will buy anything. It's about denying organizations like PETA and MoveOn SB air time, but allowing it for radical christians.

Tebow helped with the last few circumcisions, growing more comfortable with each one.

"I got a kick watching him," Bob Tebow said. "He did a great job, and he didn't look really nervous. I wouldn't let him cut on me, but he did well and helped where there was a need."

I wouldn't let him cut on me...but some poor, foreign kids? Why the hell not? I'm a little disappointed that Tebow even had to use a scalpel. I would have thought that the Heisman winner would have only needed to scowl at the penises and the foreskin would have leapt off in fright.

That is so very fucked up....

Anyone else remember this United Church of Christ ad which was banned from the superbowl a few years ago?

Celizic: CBS making huge mistake with Tebow ad
Will network accept message from atheist group? Probably not

Soon · 01-27-2010, 07:15 PM

From NARAL:

Call on CBS to Drop Focus on the Family Super Bowl Ad

CBS cleared the way to subject nearly 100 million people to Focus on the Family’s extreme agenda by agreeing to air its new pro-life ad during the Super Bowl.

Focus on the Family has an unmistakable anti-choice, anti-birth-control, anti-sex-education, anti-gay agenda. If that wasn’t bad enough, its views on women are just plain insulting and dangerous. For example, its web site urges women facing an unintended pregnancy to seek “wise advice” because “the hormones and extreme emotions of pregnancy make reasonable decisions more difficult.”

We can’t just sit by while CBS lets Focus on the Family place a political ad during the Super Bowl, when millions of people are watching ads.

CBS still has time to change course if enough of us apply pressure. Urge CBS to drop Focus on the Family’s ad.

Super glue.

Apparently when the economy - and subsequently Super Bowl ad sales - are down (for the second year in a row) it's somehow acceptable for a major network to make irresponsible advertising decisions.

It proves my point about having money. If you have it, you can buy anything you want. I think this is just so inappropriate and on so many levels.
