Didn’t get that tone at all. In fact, I got an admonishment, almost sarcastic tone from this. She knows they’re a bunk organization, so why not use their own alleged philosophy of empowering women against them? Brilliant.

I think CBS is just trying to provide “balance” for its selection of a registered sex-offender as half-time entertainment.

Sometimes you appeal to an opponent’s better nature in public even though you know they’ll never do the right thing. It keeps you on the high road and highlights how easily they could do the right thing. It’s ffective rhetoric. Keep in mind that whether she runs for President or just promotes conservatism, winning over independents and other people who think these groups are mainly or somewhat positive is going to be necessary.

Exactly.

BTW, I almost wish the Packers needed a good quarterback, because having Tim Tebow aboard would be awesome.

I understand what you mean! But I think Sarah is casting light on the inherent contradictions in NOW’s position -— not only about abortion but about their whole agenda.

On the one hand, NOW promotes women as strong, smart, etc. But then they pivot and say women are so incompetent at managing their lives that they have to kill their babies. NOW says we can handle the presidency, but can’t handle a pregnancy.

Sarah cuts right through that. She rightly points out that it’s a woman’s strength that empowers her to uphold the integrity of her principles through an untimely or difficult pregnancy, to get on brilliantly with her own life without sacrificing her child.

they’ll speak to the sanctity of life and the beautiful potential within every innocent child ... Evidently, some women’s rights groups like NOW do not like that message

NOW is going protest against children?

That's a pretty tough position to defend.

What a beautiful family. It confounds me that they inspire so much hatred from the left.
