frothing with rage. This is the pre-game Ad - another, more "controversial" one will run during half-time. But still, what is the Left afraid of?

Shouldn't the Left be celebrating the "choice" this mother made?

I haven't heard to many people complaining about it, left or right.

I did hear several Christian groups complaining about the "Dantes Inferno" game add. At the end of it, it spelled out "Go to hell".

They had to change that to not offend those poor Christians.

I am not complaining.

Although after seeing that ad, it seemed a little...fake....cheesy. I expected more for some reason.

didn't watch the ad, but I think any organization should be able to make an ad if they want. I am more upset at the network for picking and choosing what political message they want to give air time to. I saw the gay dating sight ad and actually am glad that they aren't airing that one. No mater what gender the people are, I don't need them making out on the TV as I watch the game with my young kids. So what were you saying about the left...?

I think the add was changed, slightly. What upsets me, is that CBS pulled the homosexual dating add, and they'll air a pro life add.

To me, if they are going to sell time to whomever has the money, then it should be open to everyone. Its their network, and they can do what they want, but I still think its a bit of a double standard.

Haven't you learned by now that liberals are much more afraid of dangerous American Christians than they are of peaceful Islamic terrorists?

American Christians have taken one hell of a lot more of my rights and liberties away from me, than Islamic terrorists have.

Oh, and I'm not on the left, I just accept reality.

It looked like a match.com ad.

yes, absolutely, she made the right choice FOR HER AND HER FAMILY. But the organization that is promting this propaganda is holding up her CHOICE as a mandate for ALL. That's vile.
