Sadly, NBC rejected an uplifting pro-life Super Bowl ad produced by CatholicVote.com. The excuse given is that NBC and the NFL are not interested in advertisements involving “political advocacy or issues.”

This ad is a project of the Fidelis Center for Law and Policy and represents the first release of a national media campaign. It is entitled “Life: Imagine the Potential” and you can watch it below.

The embedded video below shows what is at stake in this election regarding the right to life. Hear Senator Barack Obama and Senator John McCain in their own words state their positions on this foundational issue. I urge everyone to look deep within their heart and ask themselves if he or she really wants a pro-abortion President of the United States.

For me the choice is clear and John McCain is the only candidate who gets this fundamental issue right. No amount of poise, polish or eloquence from an amazing candidate can change my mind. On the contrary, when I see the candidates on this issue, John McCain is the one who displays eloquence and grace while Barack Obama stumbles around or calls for a bloody genocide. For this, Barack Obama is a sellout to black people and the whole nation.

It seems to me that there is no shortage of outrage over Michael Vick’s abuse of dogs. Everyday it seems that more people are coming out of the woodwork to add their voice to the uproar against him.

Frankly, I’m glad to see people outraged by wrong. However, I’d rather see this collective outrage focused on different areas of abuse right now. For example, why is there not massive outrage over terrorists who kill our soldiers in Iraq? Why is there not a public outpouring of outrage over child molesters and porn pushers? Why are people not outraged by abortion in general or partial birth abortion specifically?

It seems to me that people want to reserve the hottest part of Hell for Michael Vick while largely ignoring other far worse offenders. From everything I an tell, Michael Vick hurt animals but not people. Yes, he was cruel to dogs and was involved in illegal dogfighting and gambling and I have nothing positive to say about these actions. They were wrong. But to treat him like the scum of the earth when other more dangerous criminals are pampered is just wrong. (For example, where was the public outpouring of outrage over Scott Petersen who barbarically murdered his wife and baby? And there are dozens of other public examples.)

I’d like to see some of the public outrage currently being trained on Michael Vick refocused on bigger problems and bigger culprits. After we have properly addressed the murderous thugs, terrorists and abusers of children in the world, then we can turn our public anger on the Michael Vicks of the world without looking like hypocrites.
