A Choice For Life: Tim Tebow Ad Reveals Abortion Agenda

Jim began this edition of Crosstalk by mentioning two legislative issues; one for listeners in South Dakota and one for listeners in Wisconsin.

As this Crosstalk began the South Dakota Senate was just going into session and at issue was Senate Bill-74. This bill would expand stem cell research on human embryos.

At issue in Wisconsin is Assembly Bill 653 regarding Expedited Partner Therapy (EPT). EPT would allow someone to obtain a prescription in addition to their infected partner who has been determined to have a sexually transmitted disease. They could obtain this prescription without having to be seen for a physical examination and in spite of the fact that the doctor knows nothing about their medical history.

Chris Slattery is founder of Expectant Mother Care, also known as EMC FrontLine Pregnancy Centers in New York.

Pro-abortion groups such as the National Organization for Women (NOW) and the National Abortion Rights Action League (NARAL) are upset about an upcoming Super Bowl ad. The ad features Heisman Trophy winner Tim Tebow. Tebow was born in spite of the fact that his mother, Pam, (a missionary to the Philippines at the time) was told by doctors that aborting him would be the only way to save her life.

Chris encouraged Crosstalk listeners to contact CBS to show their support for the decision to schedule the ad.

Proposed legislation in the state of Washington (SB-6452/HB-2837) was also mentioned. This legislation would require crisis pregnancy counselors to provide information about what they aren’t rather than the services that they do provide, and to warn that they won’t refer women for abortions.

Jim also presented information on the following news stories:
