Quote:Of course some conservatives were outraged with the Super Bowl halftime show, but so were some liberals
Sigh...
Unlike you, I read the blogs, read the editorials, watched with glee while freepers went insane after Janet's breast was exposed, vs. the liberal bloggers and progressive sites which argued as to the hypocrisy of conservatives who love violence but seem to hate sex. Unlike you, I'm not throwing in the mindless invectives like "enjoyed seeing Janet Jackson's breast" to make a point. Very sad, and most pathetic indeed. I doubt you could do any better...
Even the subject of your avatar, who is now governor of this great state of California, has killed countless times on the silver screen.
Bottom line; we, as a society, can accept the killing and murders of many individuals on public television, but we somehow cannot come to grips with sexuality and nudity.
Republicans are running every level of government, therefore, THEY are making the rules regarding censorship.
After Ashcroft, Mr. Powell, and others, it is increasingly clear that we are already censoring nudity, while at the same time still glorifying violence on television.
Is there a single neoconservative who has the guts to answer a simple question: why violence, but not nudity? Why is nudity so much more offensive to mostly conservatives, whereas violence is actually quite cool?
And then, maybe, someone can come back to address what common sense really means regarding the attempt by Senators to censor the public airwaves.
