In its latest appearance, so-called “women’s groups” are protesting a life-affirming Focus on the Family ad featuring Heisman Trophy-winning quarterback Tim Tebow, which I mentioned in my column on prenatal diagnosis yesterday.

The Daily News reports on protests against the ad:

Several women’s groups have argued that the spot, which is believed to be a pro-life ad featuring Tebow and his mother, is an advocacy ad and is inappropriate for Super Sunday.
“An ad that uses sports to divide rather than to unite has no place in the biggest national sports event of the year – an event designed to bring Americans together,” said Jehmu Greene, president of the New York-based Women’s Media Center.
Also joining Women’s Media Center in the protest are the National Organization for Women and the Feminist Majority.
A CBS spokesman said the script for the 30-second ad has been approved and did not feel that any protest would have an impact.

I suppose Tebow’s mother, who appears in the ad — her doctors urged her to abort Tim and she chose not to — isn’t really a woman? She’s certainly not represented by the National Organization for Women. But I know the feeling.
