National Right to Life

Here's a young lady, Elizabeth Trisler, that won an award for her oratory skill. As a reward for her effort and skill, she was given the opportunity to speak in the Ohio state legislature - and then it was taken away.

This Speaker of the House, Mr. Budish, was against her speaking because of the content of her speech. You see, it was a pro-life speech. Of course when met with controversy, Mr. Budish wisely "changed his mind." I understand the concept of changing your mind, but come on, keep your mouth closed in the first place. Mr. Budish is a pro-choice democrat. Of course he's gonna oppose, but she won this award fair and square for her speaking abilities, not for the speech itself.

Elizabeth showed courage to even speak on a controversial issue in a contest like that. I am proud of her, as I'm sure most of he pro-life world is. I would actually like to see her speech. ( So if anyone can find it if I can't let me know.)

Also, lets log into YouTube and post a comment to encourage this young lady. I'm sure she'll have her critics, but I say "well done!" The Bless family is proud of you.

Focus on the Family Pro-Life Tim Tebow Super Bowl Commercials

Focus on the Family Pro-Life Tim Tebow Super Bowl Commercials

It's a good thing I didn't care so much who won or lost last night. Or I would have been disappointed. I chose to root for the Colts. I heard they were the team expected to win. But all well. I feel bad for them but no skin off my back.

I didn't get to see the Tim Tebow commercial last night. I didn't know til later which quarter it was supposed to air in and even despite my best efforts to watch all the commercials I missed it. I saw it finally this morning on the link I provided above.

I was a little surprised. Nothing like those left-wing liberals were so afraid of. Although I like that it riled them all up. Got the nation talking about the wrongs of abortion. Even though they featured each side of the controversy the media was severely favoring the pro-choice view. BLAH on them for not being more objective as the media is supposed to be. Right! Whatever! As if they've ever really been objective. Although I do find it a point of true maturity when they can be so.

The Focus on the Family commercial was only 32 seconds long and they paid that much money for it. Too much. It was short and sweet and didn't really give in to the hype. If I had seen it for myself during the Superbowl and not had heard a thing about who he was or anything I wouldn't have thought it any more than a cute mother-son commercial not fitting into the Superbowl commercial hype.

I was offended by the GoDaddy commercials. Bunch of deceived women trying to appeal to the men watching. Not cool. If anyone wants a good website domain name try Global Domains International it's a whole lot cheaper and you don't have to worry about being affiliated with that kind of thing.

I also didn't like the Career Builder commercials with the guys in their underwear and then Dockers tried to monetize on that. They were gross. I'm sorry, men walking around in their underwear all together...you can gather what I'm trying to say here, not cool. No manly power there.

But the game was good at times and the fellowship was great. Food was delicious and I'm very proud of the Tebow's initiative to spread the pro-life cause.

My favorite thing I've heard recently, my husband told me some radio show guy said, the Pro-choice movement will die! along with their abortions. They're killing the only people that they could raise to support their cause.

All about Applemama

I'm a homeschool mother of 4 wonderful children. My girls are 11, 4 and 2. My only son is 8 and full of energy. We live in rural PA, and have 8 chickens, 5 rabbits, 3 cats, 3 ducks, and one mouse.

We were married here 11 years ago and moved off to FL - then to VA - and now back here after my husband's job was uprooted and not transplanted. He found a job to work in his field (at least somewhat) and we are taking a wonderful opportunity to move back to where we met. We have old friends here and enjoy reconnecting with the church where we were married. We love it and are making many new friends.
