General Petraeus To Be Honored at Super Bowl; Will Participate in Coin Flip with Lynn Swann (R) and John Elway (R)
Added: NBC Refuses to Run Utterly Innocuous Pro-Life Ad

Sure would be nice if this cat became interested in elective office.

Thanks to CJ.

And Speaking of the Super Bowl: This pro-life ad was rejected by NBC for airing during the Super Bowl:

Here's what NBC says:

After several days of negotiations, an NBC representative in Chicago told the group late yesterday that NBC and the NFL are not interested in advertisements involving "political advocacy or issues."

Does that sound like bullshit? It is.

"But that’s not what they told PETA," he said about the network's recent decision to reject an ad from the animal rights group. “There’s no doubt that PETA is an advocacy group. NBC rejected PETA’s ad for another reason altogether.”

According to an email posted on the PETA web site, Victoria Morgan, Vice President of Advertising Standards for Universal, said, "The PETA spot submitted to Advertising Standards depicts a level of sexuality exceeding our standards.”

Morgan also talked about edits that need to be made” in order for the PETA spot to run during the Super Bowl.

Burch responded to that rejection further by saying, “NBC claims it doesn't allow advocacy ads, but that’s not true. They were willing to air an ad by PETA if they would simply tone down the sexual suggestiveness. Our ad is far less provocative, and hardly controversial by comparison."

I've written about this before: The liberal MSM announces categorical rules to explain their decisions when they go against conservatives (as they usually do), and then they quickly forget about such categorical rules when it comes to liberals.

An obvious example is the eight year jihad against "questioning patriotism," at least when a conservative seems to question a liberal's patriotism. When that happens, there's a categorical rule against it, and there is therefore hardly any point in investigating whether the suggestion of unpatriotic conduct has any merit.

When a liberal questions a conservative's patriotism, of course, the rule is much more nuanced, and we can freely inquire into whether, for example, it's "unpatriotic" for Rush Limbaugh to hope that Obama fails.


Another obvious one? Bipartisanship. Bipartisanship is always, categorically, the highest ideal we can aspire to in politics; except, that is, when Democrats control the levers of power, and then suddenly it's a far more nuanced proposition. To the extent it's considered at all.

They employ this deceit in order to claim they're not making political judgments at all; when they refuse an ad or condemn a Republican for "questioning patriotism," they must do so; there is no decision-making involved at all, as the rule is categorical.


And then, when they want to run an liberal ad or a question the patriotism of a conservative, they simply forget all that hoo-hah about the categorical rule.

1 I unashamedly say, I love General Petraeus. If there were to be a public figure that I could, in any way, worship like the idiots do Obama it would be Petraeus. I feel justified though, because Petraeus has actually done something.

Wow, I might have some respect for the NFL now.

Sure there will be.  Assholes who have union jobs and get their political thought from listening to Bruce Springsteen cds.

8 I really do think he'll be tapped as VP by whoever gets the Republican nomination in 2012. 

Can you imagine Petraeus debating Biden??  My god that would be awesome.

Posted by: Lyle Lanley at January 29, 2009 06:34 PM (e3TKF)

9 You can also find the papers he wrote at Princeton. Try finding Obama's papers.

Comparing Petraeus to Obama is sure embarrassing for Obama. When you read the general's bio it makes Obama look EVEN MORE weak, dumb, and wimpy.

10 Let me add my voice to the calls for an Obama failure.

Fuck him.

11 The Fidelis ad is pretty tame.  Besides, can you use the "political" excuse if the elections are over and won't come up again for 2 years?

Posted by: Gabriel Sutherland at January 29, 2009 06:38 PM (AHrTm)

12 But Mare, Gen. Patreus has actually accomplished stuff.  Liberals don't like people like that because it makes them realize how pathetic there lives are.  Plus, the general has never gone to law school.  All good liberal politicians go to law school.  And while the general helped write FM 3-07.22 (Counterinsurgency Operations), he has never been a community organizer.  And, as Ashton Kutcher taught us, "real" service to America is not simply wearing a uniform, but doing stuff like "getting in their faces" and the like.

Yeah, when did Springsteen become such a vocal lib tool?  Granted, I assumed he was always a pink based on his lyrics, but he was never an asshole about it.  I even thought he moved right after 9/11.  Now he's Tim Robbins.

Wouldn't just rock if Petraeus walked on stage during the half time show and knocked the hell out of Hasbeen Bruce?

OT-just read elsewhere that a military judge in GITMO told Obambi to go fuck himself with the 120 day delay.  Not even 10 days in and he's already everyones bitch.  Pathetic.

#8 "I really do think he'll be tapped as VP by whoever gets the Republican nomination in 2012.  Can you imagine Petraeus debating Biden??  My god that would be awesome."  Palin/Petraeus 2012.  Gives me wood just thinking about it.  I would love to see Joe "Plugs" Biden (God love em) run his dumb ass mouth with Gen. Petraeus.  Oh, and just for the record, I am an idiot for screwing the up the generals name in my previous post.

22 You guys be quiet. You're interrupting my dream of Petreaus debating Biden. It would be a complete knockout except I'd feel bad about Biden having a stroke trying to keep up.

Posted by: mare at January 29, 2009 06:58 PM (X1fsj)

23 FWIW I thought that was a great commercial and more along the lines of what the pro-life movement needs to stress. Not the dead baby pictures or the do-as-I-tell-you nannyism.

26 I love Gen. Patraeus! If I wasn't happily married, I would probably stalk him. I'm glad he will be participating at the super bowl. I am very sad about the decision not to air the pro life ad. It really is a well done piece and pretty thought provoking which would have been welcome after the Go Daddy ad.

Posted by: Trish at January 29, 2009 07:10 PM (0U5Kd)

27 This should help make up for NBC having that douchebag Olbermann spoiling my television, not to mention the slobbering 12-minute interview segment with King Obama.

Oh, and don't forget Al Michaels is a solid Republican as well.

28 I don't know what those crazy Catholics were thinking trying to run an ad like that.  That ad made me feel more pro-abortion than ever before.

32 NBC and the NFL are not interested in advertisements involving "political advocacy or issues."?  Seriously?

Then what is with all the "Green is Universal" crap?  They run environmental week only to send matt Lauer jetting around the world and have outdoor air-conditioned sets at the Beijing Olympics.  I guess "green is universal" isn't political advocacy or issues.

Oh and I won't even mention NBC attempting to pass Matthews and Olber a-hole off ass newsmen instead of the liberal political demagogues they are.

Posted by: jiminjersey at January 29, 2009 07:53 PM (2zbJD)

33 I keep telling people I do NOT see the former Eagle 6, King David himself, running for elected office. If we offered him Dictator for Life, maybe, but I don't see him having the patience or willingness to abase himself before a nation of idiots, 52 percent of whom were dumb enough to vote for Obama a mere four years prior.

44 Erik, I have no plans to watch the superbowl.  Keith Olbermann?  No thanks.  It's NFL, so it's not like I'm missing much.  It's overhyped crap.

48 Captain Badass and the crew of Flight 1549 are being honored along with General Petraeus. Another reason for a Val-U-Rite toast!

Posted by: PA Cat at January 30, 2009 12:02 AM (Oc7bG)

49 That ad is an embarrassment to Obama, and NBC would catch 30 kinds of hell if they ran it.

This way, they've pissed off a few people who read conservative blogs, hardly any of whom will change their Sunday night plans over it.

As a business decision, it's reasonable. They're playing it safe.

Sure would be nice if this cat became interested in elective office.

I agree. He's done some great things in Iraq.

But as an accomplished "nation builder" (i.e. advocate of strong government intervention in a society and economy for the purposes of counterinsurgency) and product of the basically socialist world of the military (health care, housing, recreational facilities, commissaries, PXs all provided by Big Green Machine) and as a non-moron, what makes you think that Petraeus's politics are your politics?  I doubt he's a hard-core right-winger, given his strategies in Iraq.

Generals usually end up being political moderates - e.g. Eisenhower, Powell.

"Out of curiosity, is anyone willing to not watch the SuperBowl because it's on NBC?"

I wasn't planning on watching it anyway, because I generally don't care much for sports.  But hey, I've got no problem claiming that it was because of NBC / Springsteen / whatever...

Just that between them they had seven awesome seasons of unstoppable awesomeness. (I'm counting the year they teamed up to help get Bush re-elected. Munoz from the Bengals, too. Super awesome!)

The H4 replica watches took replica watches Harrison a massive 13 years to replica watches construct-but this was only the end of a lifetime's work. His genius was clear from the very beginning. Unfortunately many astronomers such as Nevil Maskelyne were convinced that a mechanical solution replica watches would not work and that only astronomy could solve the replica watches longitude problem. The fact that Harrison was from a working class family and had little replica watches formal education probably didn't help his prospects.Solving the longitude problem through horology meant designing a timepiece that could work accurately at sea. When you watch consider the rolling waves, changes in replica watches temperature and generally adverse replica watches conditions the dificulty of this task becomes apparent.The H1 was completed in 1735 and proved replica successful at sea.
