I think it’s a decent ad even though the wife looks a little scared of her husband. My thinking is that besides being right, polling has shown for years that the public doesn’t support public funding of abortion. I think this is a good fight to pick.
My fear is that Obama will drop abortion from the plan in order to get the votes and then they’ll just put it in later buried in another bill that nobody’s read.

Good ad. I didn't think the wife looked scared of her husband so much as she was concerned about the situation they find themselves in.
As for B.O. dropping abortion, I wonder if he and his cronies are so immersed in the mindset that it's a "right" and perfectly natural that dropping the sucker would never enter their minds.
Time will tell. Good post.

Gee Anonymous, I can't believe you missed his being a misogynistic extraterrestrial inhabiting some suburban retiree's meat-suit.
Good Ad = valid comparison between an (horrific, life destroying) elective procedure and medically necessary life saving surgery.

It's a good idea but not a good ad. They needed a better writer on that one. It gets the idea across but I don't think it'll change anyone's mind.

It's not a bad. It's that we need a ten of these types of ads aired a million times asking people to hound congress to drop the whole %#$!&* thing.

Warren it was a joke. I found the author's comment "the wife looks a little scared of her husband" to be completely baseless. So, I was playing along and adding equally baseless observations. Apparently saying someone looks like they cheat at golf is offensive to the blog owners. Or maybe it was just funnier than what they could come up with. Whaddyagonnado?
