Super(bowl) Ad
We all finally got to see the Tim and Pam Tebow ad from Focus on the Family. My first thought after seeing the ad is "What is the fuss all about?"
The ad never mentions abortion, nor does it make an argument for a pro-life position. It simply says that Pam "almost lost" Tim several times (it never says how, why or even that it was during pregnancy), and it says that she still worries about him. The ad is short, clever, VERY pro-family and absolutely NOT controversial in any way, shape or form.
This whole controversy is about lefties who cannot handle a MAINSTREAM religious organization sponsoring an ad of any kind that might influence people in any way.
The group Focus on the Family, while not perfect, is one of the most respectable Christian organizations around. With so many groups and their leaders getting caught in one scandal or another, Focus on the Family has maintained integrity and character throughout their history. James Dobson, the founder has done a superb job of creating a resource for families, marriages and parents, as well as people struggling with personal and spiritual problems such as alcoholism, homosexuality, drug abuse, pornography and other personal and societal problems.
Well done, Focus on the Family. Well done.

Aha! Someone I know watched the Superbowl (I don't watch sports - please don't throw things at me). Thank you for your description of the ad.
I've met some of the production staff at Focus, and they are tears-on-the-cheeks passionate about abortion being evil. How did we ever sanction state-sponsored mass murder?
The ad actually says, "for the FULL story, go to Focus on the Family.com". Maybe THAT is what they got so upset about because that video specifically mentions God, prayer to God, the doctor's advice to abort and about how Tim Tebow really is a miracle baby.
Oh course the left wingers are Pro Choice...IF the choice is the decision to abort!!!
God bless the Tebow family...
