Women’s Rights groups, like NOW, commendably call out advertisers and networks for airing sexist and demeaning portrayals of women that lead to young women’s diminished self-esteem and acceptance of roles as mere sexed-up objects.
What a ridiculous situation they’re getting themselves into now with their protest of CBS airing a pro-life ad during the upcoming Super Bowl game. The ad will feature Heisman trophy winner Tim Tebow and his mom, and they’ll speak to the sanctity of life and the beautiful potential within every innocent child as Mrs. Tebow acknowledges her choice to give Tim life, despite less than ideal circumstances. Messages like this empower women! This speaks to the strength and commitment and nurturing spirit within women. The message says everything positive and nothing negative about the power of women – and life. Evidently, some women’s rights groups like NOW do not like that message.
NOW is looking at the pro-life issue backwards. Women should be reminded that they are strong enough and smart enough to make decisions that allow for career and educational opportunities while still giving their babies a chance at life. In my own home, my daughter Bristol has also been challenged by pro-abortion “women’s rights” groups who don’t agree with her decision to have her baby, nor do they like the abstinence message which she articulated as her personal commitment. NOW could gain ground and credibility with everyday Americans, thus allowing their pro-women message to be heard by more than just their ardent supporters, if they made wiser decisions regarding which battles to pick. They should call attention to and embrace the Tebow’s message, instead of covertly and overtly disrespecting what Mrs. Tebow, Bristol, and millions of other women have chosen to do (in less than ideal circumstances).

All those so called “womens rights” groups are nothing more than paid political hacks for the dimoKKKRAT party.
Women shouldn’t make their own choices, they should do whatever NOW tells them. And NOW says kill that baby, it’s holding you back from a meaningful career as a childless workaholic. Motherhood is an embaressment to your gender, it perpetuates the stereotype that women are only good for having a fulfilling family life. No, what women really want is to work their fingers to the bone every day of their life until they die. That’s called women’s liberation.
I just worship her don't you all?
For all you 1%ers........here's your sign: /sarcasm
They always insist they are not pro abortion. Only in favor of choice. If that is the case then why the panic and outrage over this ad, which merely encourages women not to have abortions? If the pro aborts only want to protect “choice” then you’d think they’d have no problem with other viewpoints being heard.
“I just worship her don’t you all?”
No, but I think she is more qualified than the narcissistic one to lead our country.
Not to mention the horror, the ugliness of pregnancy. Every womyn should remove her disgusting parasite harboring womb and install male genitals in its place. Only when femininity is completely removed down to the last hormone can the journey to female empowerment be complete.
The only empowered womyn is a man. Hail Clinton!
I support her.
I wasn’t sure what you were trying to communicate but I do have much admiration for Sarah’s tenacity. I highly doubt she will ever become potus because her beliefs are so polarizing to a secular society.
Fwiw, she might not even run, it's a long ways away, but she has a great role to play still, and she's less polarizing in many ways than the current secular leftist TOTUS we have.
NOW is pro-choice is long you make the choice they agree with and kill your baby.
Great tag line.
85% or so of Americans are Christians. I don’t think we are as secular as you believe. :-)
Oh yeah but she’s finished doncha know? (sarc)
Excellent post!
And they rant that men oppress us? What an insane deception they live under.

“85% or so of Americans are Christians”
Christian by whose definition? Certainly not by Biblical definition. Research it.
