The Tim Tebow ad — and how the Left shot itself in the foot
I think that Focus on the Family took a page out of Andrew Breitbart’s book. They dangled a little information in front of the liberals, and then let them self-immolate. In response to the notion that Tebow and his mom were going to make a pro-Life commercial, the Left went completely unhinged, with obscene aged hippies, deranged letters, and hate-filled videos about the end of abortion as we know it. And then what actually happened was this:

A more innocuous commercial it’s impossible to imagine. It’s so low key, there’s almost no message there. And it’s that very innocuous-ness that matters. The takeaway is that the Left is obsessed, not with choice but with abortion, while the Right is obsessed with . . . well, they’re not really obsessed with anything at all, although they do think it’s a good thing when miracle babies go on to do great things.
Brilliant.
