Former Fetuses Unite: So What, Really, Is the Problem with the Tim Tebow Ad?

Kyle-Anne Shiver "Tim Tebow, with quite astounding football prowess, is one child who was allowed to live. And grow and prosper. And succeed. To the delight of his parents and his family, friends and football fans. Since 1973, 51 million Americans just like him were not given this privilege. They were killed by abortionists before they had the chance to show what they could be. And that is a message that the abortion lobby cannot dare let come to light. Therein lies the problem with the Tebow ad."

The Shaming of John Edwards

PoliticalWire "...I am starting to believe that ABC News is playing a major role in something important: a public shaming of Edwards. And that is news, because it has seemed, at least since Bill Clinton and Monica Lewinsky, that our culture has lost touch with the concept of public shame." H/t to Taegan Goddard.

Thomas Sowell : "Great Scott!"

Townhall "One seat did not deprive the Democrats of big majorities in Congress. But one seat was the difference between being able to shut off debate in the Senate and having to allow debate on what was in this massive legislation. From day one it was clear that concealing what was in this bill was the key to getting it passed. " 'People Aren't Stupid' By JOHN FUND "Nonetheless, Mr. Brown is clearly sensitive—and a tad defensive—about his state's own universal health-care system. It now covers about 95% of the population; but it has also led to the nation's highest insurance premiums. It is driving hospitals towards bankruptcy and making it more difficult for people to see a doctor. Mr. Brown voted for the system in 2006 .... We were being eaten alive by health-care costs." Universal coverage hasn't changed that, however."

As Predictable as Clockwork — the Obama Three-step

Victor Davis Hanson "...we’ve come full circle from the idealistic-sounding, centrist candidate Obama, to the Carter-McGovern President Obama, back to the wannabe Clinton triangulator. The only constant — no real identity, no firm belief, no core convictions from which to make the argument that his left-wing vision is good for the country. You see, Mr. Obama never had to: left-wing dogma was always a state religion in the circles Obama thrived, and once Obama the nightingale started in his song, few of the hypnotized worried about the inane message that followed."

Democrats at Risk

Jennifer Rubin "A tactic that would have seemed far-fetched a year ago, when the new president was sworn in with a 67 percent job approval rating, is now emerging as a key component of the GOP strategy: Tie Democratic opponents to Obama and make them answer for some of the unpopular policies associated with the chief executive."

Rep. Jeb Hensarling Corrects Obama’s Inaccurate and Dishonest Statements on the US Deficit

Gateway Pundit "Hensarling, in criticizing government spending, told Obama that the yearly deficits Democrats complained about under George W. Bush had now become “monthly” deficits in lengthy remarks that clearly frustrated the president."

Obama's Nuclear Lie

Brian Sussman, AT "Nuclear power is a clean, green, carbon-free source of electricity. However, it's also an energy source that is completely opposed by Obama and environmentalists at large. The primary scare tactics this crew employs are Three Mile Island and Chernobyl." Don't forget the movie, "The China Syndrome".

Obama Gets Real with Republicans, Without His Teleprompter

Andy Wickersham, AT "However, it was part of the president's response (begins at 36:40) to Tennessee Representative Marcia Blackburn's question about health care that I thought was most interesting, and telling:"...."Earth to Barack Obama: It isn't the Republicans on Capitol Hill that have blocked your attempts to put America on the path towards government-run health care. It was the American people -- the same people that punished your party in 1994 when they tried to pull this stunt the last time."

ObamaCare Rocks the Dolt Vote!

Bernard Chapin , PJM "A new ad encourages young people to withhold sex from all who oppose socialized medicine." This happens when you get a rock star president supported by rock stars and voted in by rock fans.

Heavyweight Showdown in Texas GOP Primary for Governor

G.M. Roper, PJM "Medina’s numbers are showing an upswing, but whether she can catch the two career politicians depends a lot on whether Perry or Hutchinson stumble in the debates or on the campaign trail. Another question is whether Medina can project the conservative values that attract the typically conservative Texas Republican primary voter. Medina believes that she can. Regardless of how the race turns out, this year promises to be one of the most interesting Republican primary elections in Texas in a very long time."

What's Wrong with Celebrating Life?

American Thinker "Even though the ad won't be run until Super Bowl Sunday on February 7, Mr. Tebow is already becoming a household name. His premature celebrity comes not from his athletic ability on the gridiron, but from the mere fact that he's alive. .... Ms. Tebow repudiated her doctor's advice to abort the child, and she gave birth to Tim. Ordinarily, this would rank up there with many other heart-warming success stories that celebrate life. However, abortion proponents don't view life as something to celebrate.
