Do you think CBS should air Tim Tebow's anti-choice ad during the Super Bowl?
Yes. As long as both sides have equal time.
No. CBS promised that it wouldn't air "advocacy ads" of any kind.
I don't care. Who's Tim Tebow?

my roommate showed me this spanish mattress commercial with the tagline "tu cama. el lugar más importante del mundo" (your bed. the most important place in the world).  it shows a homebirth with the mom surrounded by her family members.  it is a really touching commercial showing how natural a woman's body is and it accents the important bond between a mother and her child.

i can't imagine this ever being shown on american television.  it's also kind of weird that childbirth is being used to sell mattresses.  a new twist on the sex sells idea.

Wow- that commercial is really touching, especially when you think about the kinds of commercials we have here (Axe body spray, anyone?)...

That commercial was beautiful! I wonder if it helped sell mattresses?!
