Left-Wingers Attack Tim Tebow Over Pro-Life Ad

Chris Jones — Wed, 27 Jan 2010 19:28:05 +0000

Let me start by saying I’m a pro-choice Conservative. Not rabidly pro-choice, but I generally think it should be up to the woman. I do support a ban on late-term abortions and the like.

Having said that, I also have a tremendous respect for pro-life advocates. I completely understand where they’re coming. Even though I’m “pro-choice” I’m not “pro-abortion”. Unlike radical leftist groups I don’t think it’s something to be praised or encouraged. The fewer abortions we have in this country the better.

Which is why I don’t get why Tim Tebow and his family are coming under attack for the ad they plan to run during the Super Bowl. I haven’t seen the ad, but from what I understand it’s not some rabid anti-abortion ad. Tebow’s mom simply explains that doctors encouraged her to abort Tim, because they feared he would have birth defects due to the medication she was forced to take to treat a life threatening illness.

She refused and instead chose to leave it in God’s hands and hope for the best. One only needs to watch Tim Tebow play football to see how that decision turned out.

It seems like a pretty inspirational and hopeful message to me. I don’t see what the problem is. Is the left afraid it will discourage women from having abortions?

Why would you want women to have abortions?

If the ad makes women think a little bit harder about having an abortion, why is that a bad thing? It would not prevent the abortion, just maybe encourage a few extra minutes of thought.

The radical left and phony women’s groups like NOW have a sick fascination with abortions. They treat it like some kind of sick right of passage to womanhood.

This reminds me of the pro-life ad that ran during the presidential campaign about President Obama. It was one of the most powerful and inspiration ads I’ve ever seen, but radical leftist groups hated it.

I’m all about “choice” but I just don’t get why leftists are so opposed to any message that merely celebrates life.

Why is that such a threat? What are they afraid of?

Here’s Tim Tebow himself responding in a very classy way to the attacks:

Stop Blaming Tiger’s Women

Chris Jones — Fri, 11 Dec 2009 19:49:14 +0000

Whenever a popular figure such as Tiger Woods is caught in a public scandal involving alleged marital infidelity, many people (women in particular) are quick to attack the mistresses. They are called “homewreckers,” “whores,” “sluts,” “trash,” and every other name you can think of.

Maybe the women are all of those things or maybe none of them. However, I think it is at the very least disingenuous to attack the mistresses.

The blame for what happened to Tiger Woods belongs to Tiger Woods and no one else, especially not the women he slept with.

It’s laughable when I hear female pundits sanctimoniously declare on national television that they would NEVER do such a thing. They call the mistresses “trash” and feign outrage that these women would knowingly sleep with a married father of two.

It’s easy for highly educated women with careers and fat salaries to make such declarations. If these same women woke up one morning and found themselves in their mid-20’s (or older), a high school diploma on the wall, working as a cocktail waitress — they’d be singing a different tune.

Someone in that situation being given the opportunity to sleep with a billionaire superstar athlete is like hitting the lottery. Opportunities like that are rare and should be seized upon.

Maybe said athlete is only interested in a one night stand and you’ll never see him again. But what if said athlete likes you and wants to have a relationship? What if he puts you in touch with a buddy of his that can help you launch the career you’ve always dreamed of?

Worst case scenario, the relationship becomes public and you sell your story for a $1 million dollars. Either way, you’re not a cocktail waitress anymore making $6 an hour.

The women Tiger slept with should be held least responsible. Tiger made the choice to cheat on his beautiful wife and shame his family. Those women were simply seizing an opportunity that life threw their way.

Two of the women are reportedly getting big payoffs from Tiger, at least two are selling their stories for big $$$, and we don’t know about the others (minus the two porn stars).

That means at least four of the women have dramatically changed the course of their lives for the better due to their decision to sleep with Tiger Woods.

Good for them.

Thomas Frank’s Glenn Beck Ignorance

Chris Jones — Wed, 04 Nov 2009 19:01:53 +0000

Thomas Frank has an odious piece in the Wall Street Journal today slamming Glenn Beck as an ignorant “panic peddling host”. He attacks Beck for his red phone hotline to the White House and for bringing attention to the long list of radicals in the Obama administration.

Thomas doesn’t see any radical in The White House — he only sees a nutty TV host.

Here’s what Thomas says about frequent Beck target Robert McChesney:

On Monday I wrote to an old friend, Robert McChesney, a professor of communications at the University of Illinois who has been a frequent target of Mr. Beck in recent weeks for his left-wing views and also for co-founding Free Press, an advocacy group on media policy. Did Mr. McChesney get a chance to respond on the red phone or any other way? No. "He never asked me or Free Press to call the red phone," Mr. McChesney wrote me.

What he didn’t mention about his “old friend” is that Robert McChesney is the former editor and current board member of the Marxist magazine Monthly Review. I think being associated with a publication that has a 50 year history of supporting Communism and Communist regimes qualifies as radical. I don’t think I have any Communist friends — but I could be wrong.

It’s also amusing that Thomas refers to Free Press — the organization McChesney co-founded — as simply an “advocacy group on media policy”. What he left out was that “Free Press” (a laughable name) is a big supporter of Hugo Chavez and been supportive of his media crackdown in Venezuela.

Again, sounds pretty damn radical to me.

Thomas Frank would like to gloss over the big picture Beck paints on his show, but he simply can’t.

The current administration is the most radical in American history. The people the president has surrounded himself with are the most radical in American history.

It’s only thanks to Glenn Beck that the American people are aware of the extremists who are trying to remake our country.

Predictable: Meghan McCain Attacks Michelle Malkin

Chris Jones — Tue, 11 Aug 2009 21:19:08 +0000

She has attacked Rush Limbaugh, Ann Coulter, Laura Ingraham, Karl Rove, and most other conservatives, so it was only a matter of time before Meghan McCain spewed her RINO (Republican In Name Only) venom at Michelle Malkin.

McCain complains of an effort by “extreme female conservatives” to bully her into leaving the party, which is of course phony.

The two main problems with Meghan McCain are that she’s a willing pawn of the left, and worse, doesn’t know what the hell she’s talking about.

Take this paragraph from her Malkin hit piece for example: (emphasis mine)

I don’t know exactly what about me threatens them so much, other than that people are listening to me. Malkin has the No. 1 book on The New York Times bestseller hardcover nonfiction list, but I have nearly twice as many Twitter followers as she does. And trust me, Twitter is more of an indication of where young people are than books published by the hyper-conservative publisher Regnery—which will be bringing you Carrie Prejean’s new book and published one of Ann Coulter’s.

How can someone who makes such asinine claims be taken seriously? Why would the republican party want such an ignorant person on the talk show circuit bloviating about what the GOP should do?

People like Rove, Coulter, and Malkin who’ve spent decades advancing the conservative agenda (usually with great success) should be ignored.

Instead, a 25-year old former Kerry supporter who’s been a republican for a whole year should be the new face of the GOP?

Yeah, right.

Meghan McCain may indeed have a lot of Twitter followers, but she’s not too bright.

If you want to read someone who is bright, pick-up Michelle Malkin’s new book Culture Of Corruption.

I’ll Show You A Stimulus Plan

Chris Jones — Thu, 09 Jul 2009 00:16:30 +0000

What we should have done instead of passing that ridiculous Obama stimulus plan that was nothing but $787 billion in pork, is pass something real and tangible.

If the Dems want to go the socialist route, then let’s do that. How about we give every single man and woman in America that’s 21 years of age or older a check for $1 million.

If you’re 21 years of age or older and in the country legally, you get $1 million bucks — tax free.

Think about that. It would cost a fraction of what the phony stimulus plan cost and would put real money in people’s pockets.

I just wonder what the implications long-term of something like that would be? It would cost the government little, but I wonder what the long-term societal impact of something like that would be.

Would it end up being a net positive for the country? Would there be unforeseen consequences?

Before you jerks start emailing me about this, I’m not trying to claim this as my idea. I’ve heard it suggested before, but I really gave it some thought today.

Instead of pissing money away on phony global warming and porky special interests, imagine if we just gave a bunch of money back to the people.
