CBS Superbowl anti-abortion commercial

[Mango]

Does anyone really care what Gloria Allred thinks? I mean really. Please, to those this "commercial" offends, rest easy, your little world will not be affected in any way. Your beliefs, lifestyle, or decisions about snacks and dinner will remain unchanged. This "commercial" is not for you. Everything on TV is not necessarily intended for YOU. But maybe, just maybe, someone will get a positive message from it and who knows....?

That statement should really apply to both commercials, but, unfortunately I fear it doesn't. The positive message for the mancrunch commercial could have applied to teenagers or young people wrestling with their sexual orientation that it is ok. I'd say you would be wrong in stating that decisions about snacks and dinner go unchanged, otherwise, we would not have commercial advertising and whether you realize it or not, you are being influenced.

I wonder how many gay guys will be show in the stands and on the field?

saw the Tebos and Mom commercial - it was short and sweet, funny and in good taste.. Tebow was adorable.

All the fuss from the pro-choice folks for that? :roll: Very tastefully done.

Yep, nothing says family values like sacking your mother.

Wow I almost wonder if they changed it because that was about as vague as you can get. Nothing wrong with it at all. Fake outrage strikes again!

I wondered the same. but I doubt they would have participated in anything less tasteful.

Excuse me, but I think people were rightfully upset - it had the potential to be awful, and it is never fair to show one side of an issue without presenting the other- this ad was publicizing an issue, NOT a product or service ad. I imagine the pro-choice camp never thought in a million years they would have to run an ad during Superbowl, nor would they have wanted to in the first place.

I still don't think it really "fit" with the type of advertising normally seen during Superbowls, but hey, that's my opinion.

Is that Tebow guy gay? Just curious.
