Tebow versus Cannon: Exposing the Abortion Industry’s Racist Agenda
by Joseph R. Giganti

Super Bowl Sunday is a seminal event for just about every television-watching American because it offers something for everyone.
…This year’s commercial lineup has created a stir unlike any other because CBS has green lighted an ad produced by Focus on the Family. The as-yet-unseen ad tells the story of Pam Tebow, who, despite pressure to abort her unborn son, chose to carry him to term. That baby boy grew up to be college football phenomenon Tim Tebow-the first college sophomore to win the Heisman Trophy and the first college quarterback to both rush and pass for 20 touchdowns in a single season.
The standard script of many pro-abortion and so-called feminist organizations regarding this ad is that it is an affront to women’s rights, and that such examples oversimplify the issue (this despite the fact that they have not seen the ad). Planned Parenthood-the nation’s largest abortion provider-has even released a video featuring former NFL player Sean James and Olympic gold medalist Al Joyner responding to the ad. Yes, they are “responding” to an ad they haven’t actually seen. At one point, James states, “We’re working for a day when every woman will be valued.” Apparently that does not include the thousands of little girls who will never get the chance to mature into women of value because their lives will be taken through abortion.
Putting aside the tired talking points of those who worship at the altar of abortion, what’s really stoking this controversy is the abortion industry’s desire to hide the truth behind their agenda: racism.
Tim Tebow is the perfect foil for such bigoted fodder. He is a white, home-schooled Christian boy poised for great success in life-the left’s stereotype of the pro-life movement.
…This is intended to perpetuate the myth that Planned Parenthood and their ilk are more in tune with the needs and desires of minority cultures than pro-lifers. This coming from an organization that was founded by one of the most virulent racists in history: Margaret Sanger. She being the one who wanted the organization’s motto to be, “To Breed a Race of Thoroughbreds;” she being the one who bragged in her autobiography about speaking to the Klu Klux Klan, and not understanding the group’s controversial nature because it understood the problem that “negroes” represented; and she being the one who thought that eugenics was the only logical way to perpetuate the human race.
To help demonstrate this premise, consider a very similar situation from just five years ago, when rapper Nick Cannon released his moving single, “Can I Live?” Like the Tebow ad, this song told the true and very personal story of Cannon’s mother, whose own pregnancy was a textbook argument for termination according to that industry’s “logic.” She was only 17 and a single, minority woman without the supposedly necessary means needed to raise a child. Cannon’s music video features him hugging his mother and saying, “I love life. I love my mother for giving me life…Thanks for listening, Mama thanks for listening.” Like the Tebows, her gift of love and sacrifice by choosing life was met with great reward. Not only did it give young Nick Cannon the chance at life, but he grew up to enjoy success as a rapper, actor and now TV and radio broadcaster.
But Cannon’s song/video goes much further than the Tebow ad, which Focus on the Family has said does not even contain the word “abortion.”
