RE: Super Bowl ad stokes abortion controversy

Sally Jenkins of the Washington Post, who is pro-choice ("I couldn't disagree with Tebow more."), has written a great article about the controversy. An excerpt:

Here's what we do need a lot more of: Tebows. Collegians who are selfless enough to choose not to spend summers poolside, but travel to impoverished countries to dispense medical care to children, as Tebow has every summer of his career. Athletes who believe in something other than themselves, and are willing to put their backbone where their mouth is. Celebrities who are self-possessed and self-controlled enough to use their wattage to advertise commitment over decadence.
