Pretty interesting, don't you think? An entire media mythology has grown up around the noble missionary who carried her child to term against a doctor's advice, and the child grows up to become a devout Christian and football star.

Or maybe not:

As Joe Jervis points out, we’ve been hearing the propaganda for weeks now about how Tim Tebow’s mother was confronted with a difficult pregnancy, encouraged to have an abortion, and made the heroic and courageous choice to carry the pregnancy to term, so that her son Tim would one day sport Bible verses in his eyeblack and have a really hard time at NFL tryouts. As you all know, the propaganda has become even fiercer as Focus on the Family has spent $2.5 million on an anti-choice ad to be aired during the Super Bowl featuring Tebow’s story.

Yeah, well, Gloria Allred begs to differ:

In her exclusive interview with RadarOnline.com, Allred slams the ad and CBS’s decision to air it, pointing out factual inconsistencies with Pam’s story. One glaring one is the fact that the act of abortion is totally illegal in the majority Catholic country of the Philippines – under all circumstances including rape and incest, and even without a provision in the circumstance that the mother’s life is in danger. The law has been in effect since 1930.

Allred says she believes it an impossible scenario to believe that [Filipino] doctors would [have] ever suggested abortion as a viable option for Tebow in the first place. And when you learn that physicians and midwives who perform abortions in the Philippines face six years in prison, and may have their licenses suspended or revoked, and that women who receive abortions – no matter the reason – may be punished with imprisonment for two to six years, it’s easy to see why.

Gloria Allred is threatening to sue CBS if they run the Tebow ad, saying if the ad fails to disclose that abortions were illegal at the time Tebow made her “choice”, "I intend to file a formal complaint of misleading advertising with those federal commissions.”

Maybe the Teebows can change the wording to "she turned down the only abortion offered in the Philipines in over 60 years."

Funny thing is there's already a letter in the Dallas Morning Nudes claiming this is a free speech right.

But when CBS refused to run commercials during the Superbowl from People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, the United Church of Christ and MoveOn.org, anti-Bush era U.S. deficit and ads that spoke on the issue of gay rights, than it was about the CBS rights as a business organization.


Diabolus est Deus Inversus

:p~

With the United Church, I thought they had specifically stated that it was their policy not to run any advocacy commercials.

Edit: which I guess does pertain to their rights as a business organization, but also points out conflict within their internal rules as an organizationoops I'm sorry person.

I will not be watching the Super Bowl thanks to this advertisement. I have watched little NFL football this year anyhow.

I have nothing against the Tebows. I actually admired Tim Tebow as a football player and how he carried himself when he DID NOT Win the Heisman Trophy. I am glad that Alabama won the College Championship and was more than happy that Mark Ingram of Alabama won the Heisman Trophy this season.

What I am objecting to though is that CBS and other networks have censored other ads from being aired because it was seen as too "political."

I urge people NOT TO WATCH THE SUPER BOWL THIS YEAR AT ALL.....There are other things to do with your time than to watch this game anyhow. You will know the final score soon enough and hell, knows, ESPN will be talking about this Super Bowl to saturation levels, for the next two weeks anyway. By that time you will know more about this game then had you wasted your good time watching it in the first place. By watching the game you boost the ratings and justify this anti-choice commerical you detest.

Go to gym, watch a movie or have fun with whoever while this lame game is on.....

NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell is quite conservative and this should not be lost in this current discussion/debate. He is proud to be a "tough guy" as leader of the league as well. I am sure that Goodell endorses this position regarding not allowing women to have choice over their reproductive rights as well. Goodell needs to be called out on this issue as well. The NFL needs to be held accountanle on this very anti-women position.

I also urge people to contact the National Football League and CBS to voice your contempt regarding this decision. But don't watch this game because it only increaases the ratings and reinforces these bigots views of being the anti-choice scoundrels they are.

I'm watching every snap and I'm pulling for N'Orlins. Focus On the Family and Billboard Tim are not going to make me miss a great game. Obviously the whole Pam Tebow martyrdom is a load of crap -just what you would expect from the whining Right, but the Food Channel isn't going to cut it next Sunday.

You stupid moron. You missed a great game this year, because of a stupid 30-second commercial. JEEEEZ, what a jackass you are! But then, ALL libs are JACKASSES, you're just a bigger one than most ha ha !

the two are not mutually exclusive. They do have the right to free speech, and CBS has the right to refuse to run commercials.

Take this site for instance, I have the right to free speech. But this site has the right to censor what I say or ban me completely if they like or allow me to post.

WizardLeft1's picture

Yes---I Know That and Realize That!

And I have the right to BOYCOTT The Super Bowl Too!!!!

And yes, CBS has the RIGHT to CENSOR and REFUSE any Commericals it likes or wants and ALLOW any Commericals it likes or wants.

Yes, it is "free speech" as per order of CBS which then makes me wonder that CBS does not agree with a woman's right to choose and is engaging in this hyper-Nationalistic event.

It is too bad that the NFL and many other professional/college sports have become nothing but exercises in American Nationalism for the masses of Americans who cannot go one day without having to become excited by some form of entertainment.

I wonder how many times the Super Bowl Nationalist Game will have commercials for military enlistement and military propaganda as well?

Again---Sports in America have beocme nothing but hyper-Nationalism for the masses. As the writer Ron Jacobs wrote some years back:

"Given the generally nationalistic nature of US sports fans-a nationalism based in part on the incessant flag-waving and militaristic overtones omnipresent at most sporting events and their television presentation..."

The Vatican's age of consent is twelve. Looks like someone's carrying the torch.

One has to remember though that statutory age of consent is for marriage

Not pre-marital boinkin'.

And as far as I know Mary never received any child-support payments from the father of her child.

I'm pretty sure it says pre-marital boinkin in the manual. It even specifies that the age must be fifteen if the priest is in a position of power over the boy Ahem, object of affection.

Boys can't legally marry.


Diabolus est Deus Inversus

curtilingus's picture
3p:

Exactly. Neither can a catholic priest. So age of consent laws have nothing to do with marriage as they pertain to Vatican City. They have to do with forbidden boinkin, which is also against the bible but here is the head institution with provisions just for that occasion.

Can you provide a citation?

Age of consent for boys are probably hold-overs from arranged marriages.


Diabolus est Deus Inversus

curtilingus's picture
:p

http://www.avert.org/age-of-consent.htm

This is a chart. Wiki used to have a more detailed article on age of consent, but since these laws do set different ages of consent, sometimes depending on gender or the sex act involved (male on male for instance has a different age than heterosexual sex in some countries), they are not exclusively in regard to marriage.

ysbaddaden's picture
)O(

Although that appears no longer to require marriage, all that means is that the 12 year olds won't be prosecuted, but say nothing about a partner 18 or above.

I wonder if they will run a disclaimer that says "these opinions do not necessarily reflect the views of CBS." They never had to before on a commercial, but if they leave it out, it implies the commercial does reflect the opinions and views of CBS.

Which would make it kinda like a campaign commercial.

So, Tim, either way, just STFU!

I've been a sports nut my whole life, and somehow, I don't remember seeing this religious crap in sports in other countries around the world.
Either the other countries religious stars are more low key, or the stars of other religions don't celebrate - or when they honor Buddha, or Yahweh, or Mohammed, or Mithras, or whatever, I'm missing the symbolic gesture.
Yeah, go ahead. Point up to "Heaven" when you hit that home run. Jesus personally came down and hit that fastball for you. Must be 'cause the pitcher's an agnostic.

It's almost as if Tim Tebow is somehow messing in your affairs, taking your money, or hurting you in some way. Is Tim Tebow so strong and infuencing a person that you can't let him express himself in any way he wishes - then politely ignore him?

How is this guy so different than the other 3.5 billion people on the planet who simply have something to say?

What is it about "religious crap" that you find THIS offensive? Can't you just ignore it... like a thousand other things in your life?

What is it about God that gets you so worked up - even more worked up than things everyone finds "offensive".

I remember hearing some talking head idiot ranting about how that was the most disgusting thing he'd ever seen on television. He was saying how children who'd seen it would be scarred for life and so forth. The station went to commercial, and the very first thing that came up was a promo for some movie showing someone dead with blood running out of his head. So, not even naked human body = scarred for life, obviously murdered human body = fine and dandy entertainment for the whole family. What an incredibly screwed up society.

As I said above, I'm not particularly religious. But I don't want to control your reproductive rights (although I'm a firm believer that certain people shouldn't breed). You have the right to get pregnant if your able, and the right to not get pregnant. But if you do, I feel that the life that was created by the act that you willing took part of has rights also.

twoedgedsword's picture

"Good to know the Religious Right still wants to control my reproductive rights."

So let me get this straight..... a commercial on TV is tantamount to "control"?

You must be the most weak minded dude on the planet. Most people just look at the commercial... they don't immediately rush out to buy the product.

I think you need some counseling before watching any more TV.

Well those who can actually think before they speak - if the "Religious Right" could exert "control" over others by using TV advertisements - why don't they have an ad on the hour, every hour?

That would make sense - at least in SJ Jonez paranoid world.

Margaret's picture

And in light of the fact that CBS just turned down an ad from a gay dating site, how many of you are going to skip watching the Superbowl? And how many are going to justify still watching by such nonsense as "they've already been paid for the ads" or "my one television isn't going to make any difference" or "they can't tell what I'm watching"? All of these are valid points but change has to start somewhere. Anybody bashing CBS' decisions but still watches the Superbowl is engaging in hypocrisy. That isn't a cut or an attack, that's just the way it is.

Isn't it entirely possible that her doctors in the Phillipeans cared more about her health then her fetus' and recommended an abortion EVEN IF it was illegal?

I mean, I disagree with her stance on abortion 100%. But I also realize that it's entirely possible that she could be telling the truth, and that if she is then the decision on whether or not to abort had to have been emotionally traumatic.

Openly mocking a person who might have had to make a decision like that makes us look like assholes. Plain and simple.

Don't you just love the hypocrisy of rightwingnut christians? Or should I say, the hypochristianity?

Tim Tebow brays...I mean, preys...uh, "prays" and blathers about "bein' a gud krisjin", but when it comes time to put up or shut up, he makes an anti-woman and anti-choice ad that spreads a lie on TV instead of going to Haiti and doing charitable work. Draft day isn't until April, godboy. You've got two months and the US military to protect you from any danger.

Meanwhile, Pat Tillman gave up an NFL career and a potential new contract that would have been worth millions of dollars and went to fight in a war to defend his country (or so he thought) where he was eventually killed by his own troops. Tillman's family was then insulted by a degenerate "General" for asking questions about Tillman's death, eventually proving it was incompetence and "friendly fire" which killed him, not Al Qaeda.

Tillman put his life on the line in a high risk situation while Tebow puts his face on TV instead of putting his money where his mouth is. And we're supposed to believe the lie that Tebow is "ethical" and "an example to others" and that Tillman wasn't for not believing in a "god"?

The only example Tebow is setting is for self-serving republican chickenhawks.

about that.


I've never seen change without a fire

BUT...this is important enough to state again...Tillman and his family are Atheists.

Whether they're atheists, agnostics, buddhists or anything else isn't really important. What matters is that Tillman stepped up while Tebow backpedaled and cowered.

Then again, we're comparing an aggressive defensive back and a cowardly quarterback, so that shouldn't surprise.

...the Bud Bowl. All the players would look like pipes (bud bowls) and each side would sit down to relax and party and say "Whoa, dude" a whole lot. I actually like the sound of that.

I don't know if the Tebows are lying or not and I have not seen the ad and neither has anyone else. With a little due dilligence you would find that abortions are indeed performed in the Philippines. In addition, if a doctor concludes that a patient should have an abortion or any other procedure and fails to advise his/her patient, does not said doctor violate his/her Hippocratic Oath? IMHO,Gloria Allred is an opportunistic ambulance chaser!

Abortions are against the law in the Philipines. Esp 20 yrs ago

The fact that abortions are illegal in the Philipines proves that they didn't recommend that she have one?

The fact people are running with this story is hurting our cause rather than helping us. People see liberals mocking a person who claims to have had to choose between risking her own life, and aborting her fetus. Whether we personally think it's true or not, since when is this good politics?

... revolve around the fact that the woman had a choice - if their story is accurate - and chose to continue the pregnancy to term?
Something these clowns are trying to deny today's women?

She may have gone back to the states, given the difficult pregnancy, and it was the evil doctors here who told her to cut the offending demon growth from her womb.

But here's the thing...after all that struggle and turmoil, she eventually gave birth to a guy who grew up and became a total dick. How very sad.

If a guy lies about his sexual orientation, can we really believe him about the circumstances of his birth?

I say let them waste 2.5 million on a pathetic political ad during THE football game of the year.To say it will go over like a lead balloon would be an understatement.Now Mudshark had the right idea suggesting a legalize Pot commercial.At least with the Pot commercial they would be reaching out to the correct demographic.

Even better than not watching the Superbowl this year would be to stop watching all professional sports. Best option would be to go out and exercise, or get friends togther at the park to play a game.

1) The legality or illegality of abortion in the Phillipines notwithstanding, a doctor or doctor's recommedation to have an abortion to a patient who is not a native of the country can be made regardless of the legality of performing it it in the country where the recommendation is made.

2) This post is based on blog links that are self referential, all of which go to the Gloria Allred interview. All I know of Gloria Allred is her frequent appearances on the CNN baby corpse hunter's show. I have yet to see a direct link to Pam Tebow's being interviewed on tape or quoted in print. I have looked and cannot find one yet. Supposedly she gave one to ESPN.

3) If you want to question Pam Tebow's credibility go to the heart of the matter. Amoebic dysentery is not commonly described as causing birth defects. Neither are the drugs which treat it. What was used in 1987? Was there a common medical fear of birth defects from the disease and its treatment which would have led doctors in the Philippines or the US to be recommending an abortion absent testing which could have been performed on the fetus? Sounds like bull to me.

Gloria Allred is a lying, fraudulent, money-grubbing, man-hating sick publicity whore.

Pam Tebow isn't the Liar. According to the UNITED NATIONS, abortion is legal in the Philippines to save the life of the mother.

www.un.org/esa/population/publications/aborti...

"Although the Penal Code does not list specific exceptions to the general prohibition on abortion, under the general criminal law principles of necessity as set forth in article 11(4) of the Code, an abortion may be legally performed to save the pregnant woman’s life."

From the Philippine Penal Code:

Art. 11. Justifying circumstances. — The following do not incur any criminal liability:
4. Any person who, in order to avoid an evil or injury, does any act which causes damage to another, provided that the following requisites are present;
First. That the evil sought to be avoided actually exists;
Second. That the injury feared be greater than that done to avoid it;
Third. That there be no other practical and less harmful means of preventing it.

Thanks for the facts.

This whole incident reveals the libs for what they are - lying hypocritical frauds, who will viciously attack anyone with whom they disagree, regardless of things like "truth" and "fact". The side that claims to love "truth", in fact lives on lies. To the libs, the concept of "fact" is meaningless - a "fact" is anything they say it is, anything which will promote their point of view.

From the Pro-Abortion Guttmacher Institute.

"Abortion techniques used in the Philippines range from safe surgical procedures performed in hospitals to highly dangerous procedures, such as inserting foreign objects into the cervix or ingesting toxic substances."

"One-third of women report having the abortion in a hospital or health center."

"One in four women who obtain an abortion have a surgical procedure, by either dilation and curettage (D&C) or manual vacuum aspiration (MVA)."

"Abortions are sought by women rich and poor, old and young, educated and uneducated, rural and urban, and from all parts of the country."

Thanks for some facts. BTW, the GI is not just "pro abortion", it is an abortion promoter. It actively encourages women to have abortions, because it believes having children ties women down and prevents them from reaching their true potential.

Ha, you stupid fucking morons, you got pwned! Liar? No, abortions legal for medical reasons, which if you pea brains took the time to understand the whole story, is what it was. Morons! Imbeciles! You jackasses ran around for two weeks screaming like stuck pigs, making assholes out of yourselves. So unnecessary. Everyone already knows what stupid assholes you libs are anyway.

No I don't mean the fact that the ad turned out to be a bit of a nothing in the long run. I was expecting a choir at least.

And not that Gloria Alred ended up bluffing that she's file a complaint. I mean, she didn't stop the ad.

And not so interesting that people would miss the fact that despite the attempt, the ad went on. I mean, that kinda should tell ya something huh?

Not so interesting that the "argument" now id that since abortions were illegal in the Phillipeans that Pam Tebo is supposed a liar. "Laugh out Loud". Nobody has the brains to figure that one out?

What is interesting of the level of hate. Right here on these pages. It's screamingly clear that abortion proponents are violently pissed off. It's interesting that the anger is all because some mother decided to keep her child instead of kill it.

And this anger is with a straight face? Who's buying this crap?

Uhhhh noone.

I think you abortion fanatics should kinda just let this pass. You're in danger of killing more than a few million babies per year now... you're in danger of killing the cause.

We can't have that now can we?

About Tim Tebow? I've never met him. Do I have enough information to trust him with my wallet? LOL! Of course not!

And I don't know enough about Tim Tebow to decide that I can't trust him either. Or call him names. Or assert that he's a liar - or that is mom is a liar - or really anything.

How are the majority of people on this blog that much smarter than me? To have the ability to know what's in another man's heart - oh and point it out with such fervor?

Well that a rhetorical question. Fact is, what I do know is that I can't trust YOU. The statements made here are blatant hypocrisy and even beyond that. Openly slanderous.

How can people who can't be trusted expect to be taken seriously on their judgements about who else can be trusted? In the court of intellectual honestly, your testimony as a character witness against Tim Tebow has to be thrown out.

SO - this is apparently the website where all the Crooks and Lairs some to spout off.

Well it's nice to know where they all are so I know where to keep an eye on 'em.

The funniest thing I see, repeated over and over again, is the use of the word "moron". I mean it's funny in a pathetic kinda way.
