Tim Tebow The Preacher

Tim Tebow's father asked for a preacher and now he has one.

Today, Tebow appeared with President Barack Obama, Uncle Joe Biden, Secretary Hillary Clinton and BCS-buster Senator Orrin Hatch, among others at the National Prayer Breakfast. The President did not mention Tebow in his remarks, but Tebow did give the closing prayer. It also made at least a few Redskins fans wonder if Tebow would like playing in the District.

That was the second such event for Tebow this week. Following Tebow's Senior Bowl appearance, he was in West Virginia, speaking at the Big Atlantic Classic Tip-Off Banquet. There he spoke about the need for students to continue to follow their dreams and take action on them. He also snuck in some sarcastic comments about what NFL scouts have been saying about him.

Of course Tebow's big day will be Sunday, when his Focus On The Family airs during the Super Bowl. Not only has it introduced Tebow to a whole segment of the population, but that segment doesn't exactly like him either. First, there was the expected backlash from women's and gay groups (since Focus On The Family's favorite target after legalized abortion supporters are teh gheys). Then, Sarah Palin inserts herself into the crap storm. That was followed by people accusing Tebow's mother of lying. (The heavily Catholic Philippines has always banned abortion, in any form. The accusation is that Tebow's mother would not have been offered an abortion, making the commercial a sham. This ignores the fact that abortions are always accessible in the Philippines, especially to rich people.) Planned Parenthood followed by creating an ad to counter Tebow's, but will never get near your television. Tebow's ad even got a mention at media day, as Saints LB Scott Fujita (who came out in favor of gay marriage), was asked about the commercial. (If you're worried about catching teh ghey, don't click that link. It goes to The Advocate.)

Oh yeah, and Tebow's still preparing for the NFL Draft. No big deal.

Nice to see the Palins are jumping on the Tebow spot light.

I think its nice to see people standing up for pro-life from my perspective. But the way they are going about it doesnt seem like a likely way to sway peoples opinions. The percentage of mothers who abort because of life threatening or rape is very small. The majority of abortions are just people not ready for that responsibility yet. And they dont feel bad becuase they are more worried about thier own lives rather taking away anothers.

Theres been several documented cases of babys surviving at less then 24 weeks old, yet it is still legal to have abortion up to 24 weeks. So its clear you cant change anyones morals, especially if thier “fun life” is in jepordy.

Palin is jumping in to benefit herself. Just like she’s joining the Tea Party movement because they are paying her $100,000. /politico’ed

I was kinda implying that

As its nice to see the support but it seems funny they just now are coming out with the same thing the Tebows are getting all the spot light for.
