			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Despite the <a href="http://thelobbyist.net/lobby/archives/3220">despondent attitude</a> I had earlier this week, I&#8217;m a bit more optimistic <a href="http://rightosphere.com/blog.php?user=DustinSiggins&amp;blogentry_id=909">after a number of Democratic mistakes</a> on health care reform, as well as the leadership of Senator Tom Coburn (R-OK). Even better, I saw on Fox News this morning that a <a href="http://rightosphere.com/blog.php?user=KavonWNikrad&amp;blogentry_id=913">CBS poll</a> showed the vast majority of Americans want the GOP to repeal the health care reform bill President Obama signed into law. Even better than <em>that</em>, however, is the upcoming <a href="http://congress.blogs.foxnews.com/2010/03/25/senate-to-send-health-care-bill-back-to-house/">ping-pong</a> of the reconciliation bill back to the House. Maybe they can scare a few Democrats into shutting it down. Unlikely, but possible.</p>
<p>Hope springs eternal- I just hope the right is not getting reform fatigue. I know I am. (Though that might be the allergies&#8230;)</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Yesterday, Hot Air <a href="http://hotair.com/archives/2010/02/07/video-the-ultra-scary-tebow-ad-for-focus-on-the-family/">posted</a> the pre-Super Bowl ad of Heisman Trophy winner Tim Tebow and his  mother. The ad was easily the least controversial I saw throughout Super  Bowl Sunday- especially compared to the many Bud Light and men in  underwear commercials, or the taxpayer-funded census ad and the American  debt commercial, during the actual Super Bowl.</p>
<p>However, nobody in the general public had seen the real ad until the  game. You know, <a href="http://hotair.com/archives/2010/02/01/video-megyn-kelly-smacks-down-gloria-allred/">the</a> one <a href="http://bustersports.com/blog/buster-blog/2010/01/27/the-view-tebow-could-just-as-easily-become-a-rapist-pedophile/">feminists</a> and <a href="http://race42008.com/2010/01/27/cbs-sexist-for-airing-tim-tebow-pro-life-ad/">pro-abortionists</a> went <a href="http://race42008.com/2010/01/27/oreilly-destroys-pro-abortion-anti-freedom-of-speech-woman/">crazy</a> over because Tim and Pam Tebow, along with CBS, were allegedly <a href="http://www.alternet.org/blogs/peek/145363">pushing a radical  pro-life agenda</a>. So after seeing the pre-game ad, I was prepared for  anything- you know, maybe a mention of God or perhaps even a a hug  between a mother and her son?</p>
<p>Turns out I was wrong. Tebow actually <a href="http://www.newsrealblog.com/2010/02/07/the-uber-scary-tim-tebow-%E2%80%98pro-life%E2%80%99-super-bowl-ad-and-feminist-lunacy/">tackles  his mother</a>- which is pretty funny, no matter <a href="http://www.latimes.com/sports/nationworld/wire/sns-ap-us-super-bowl-focus-on-the-family,0,6898849.story">what</a> the fruitcakes <a href="http://twitter.com/AmandaMarcotte/status/8784856397">say</a>-  while she is expressing concern about his safety and toughness. She then  pops up before he does and &#8220;lectures&#8221; him about interrupting her  sharing their story. He apologizes, stands to her left with one hand on  each shoulder, and asks her if she still worries about him. She says  that she does, because he&#8217;s &#8220;still not as tough as I am.&#8221;</p>
<p>All in all, this is a knockout, home run, touchdown, hat trick,  whatever you want to call it, for Focus on the Family and the pro-life  movement. Whether intentional or not, by not releasing the ad&#8217;s content  until the Super Bowl, Focus on the Family let the crazies on the left  run wild with speculation. The pro-life movement now looks kind, gentle  and loving, if you even picked up on the sub-text of the ad. Focus on  the Family, which has the background of the Tebow ad <a href="http://www.focusonthefamily.com/">on its main page</a>, in  particular looked like a non-controversial organization to those who  have never heard of it. The only mention of the organization is a few  seconds at the end directing people to the Tebow&#8217;s story on Focus on the  Family&#8217;s main page.</p>
<p>However, the victory does not end there. The Tebow ad has been  discussed for some time on blogs, in articles, on The O&#8217;Reilly Factor,  The View, The Laura Ingraham Show, Megyn Kelly&#8217;s &#8220;America Live&#8221; and of  course on the websites of <a href="http://www.lifenews.com/timtebowads.html">Life News</a> and <a href="http://www.youtube.com/plannedparenthood">Planned Parenthood</a>.  Why? Because feminists and pro-abortionists went off the deep end to  take the ad down. Had they waited for the commercial to come out before  making a statement, they could have attacked from a base of knowledge.  Had they ignored it, the ad might have caused a piffle of notice among  Super Bowl watchers and been promptly ignored. However, by taking the  path more traveled by attacking the ad with every weapon possible as  soon as possible, they guaranteed the ad would be carefully observed by  millions of Super Bowl commercial watchers.</p>
<p>When it comes down to it, the pro-life movement is increasingly in  line with the views of Americans, <a href="http://race42008.com/2010/01/26/cal-thomas-lets-make-the-unborn-people-too/">especially  young Americans</a>. By making the Tebow ad a mainstream point of  discussion for many days before the Super Bowl, pro-abortionists have  made themselves look both the fools and out of touch with mainstream  America, and placed the pro-life movement squarely in touch with the <a href="http://race42008.com/2010/02/01/wont-someone-please-think-of-the-women-and-the-children/">softer,  kinder side</a> of Americans, who by and large only want what&#8217;s best  for everyone. This ad, or more precisely the pro-abortion reaction to  it, will most certainly guide Americans to the side of the abortion  debate that is truly about helping women and children, and helping  families make the right decisions about life.</p>
