Well


they ran the commercial during the Super Bowl, and the government wasnt taken over by the neo relilgous right, who after removing Obama in a bloodless coup, held M4 carbines to the heads of the Supreme Court and forced them to overturn Roe v. Wade and Gonzalez v. Carhart.

If someone from the media who went nuts over the airing of what basically was a plug for a website wants to tell me what the big deal was over that commercial, I swear Ill pay attention.

A collective much ado about nothing. Tebow still wont be a good pro football player, Hati is still in shambles, Ive got to pay my taxes and the world keeps on spinning.

what a waste of time

Yeah, it was a light, fun commercial. Hardly worth protesting. Celebrate life. Celebrate family. One of the more family-friendly commercial compared to the Go Daddy ads.

You could just as easily say that the people who bought the commercial overstated what it was going to be about.

It had to be the most pointless commercial of the entire Super Bowl. All it basically said was "I'm glad Tim Tebow didn't die in childbirth". It wasn't really an anti-abortion commercial. It wasn't really about anything.

I thought it was smart. The week before everybody was talking about it. Then it is shown and it's not extreme, controversial, or offensive.

It offended me due to the fact that it didn't live up to the controversy I was led to believe it had

The Simpsons Coke ad was more controversial. Burns excepting a free hand out after going bankrupt! Socialism!

I didn't understand what all the fuss was about with Tim Tebow and Focus on the Family. It still doesn't mean Tebow is going to do much in the NFL, if he's even selected. As for GoDaddy.com and Danica Patrick, until she starts winning some races, get the hell off my TV and take those ads with you!

This commercial was brilliant. It celebrated faith & family, everything else was left to the interpretation of the viewer. I thought it was very well done & actually stood out for its simplicity & warmth.

That commercial was outrageous. Completely out of character for me...I mean Mr. Burns. It made me feel dirty and sappy.

The line between Socialism! and charity is very far apart. Unless the booty given to Burns was stolen by an oppressive government, it would fall in the category of charity.
