But the problem is is that a lot of parents aren't as smart as you are. There are a lot of bad parents.

We all know that those liberal hollyweirds have not been blessed with any sense of dignity or respect especially for children. We see a child and say, “here have some candy. Hollyweird sees a child and says “here ya little sh*t have some porn”. Good old profanity, the mainstay of the freethinkers. Gimmie an F! Rah! Rah!


……...brin’ their best to America

Ya, bring back the good old days where conservative fundies want everyone to stop masturbating.

Don't like it, don't watch it, some folks just always looking to interfere with other ppl's lives.

Ohhh, profanities going hurt my uppity image.

yeah, because something hurts my ears, so let's ask the government to run our lives, and at the same time, run everybody else's lives.

I take it you think that on public TV that the Hollyweirds are not intelligent enough to create dialog without using profanity? I take it you think that if there is not profanity on public TV that you will no longer be able to spew every foul word you can conjure up wherever you find it’s useful to you because you also will not have the vocabulary to get your point across without a few curse words?

Not using profanity has nothing to do with being uppity but a whole lot to do with having class.

Believe me; we have no desire to interfere with your interest in masturbation, so much so you did not even have to mention it!

Did you even bother to read about this decision, in which the court cited President Bush and Vice President Cheney for THEIR use of profanity in public circumstances. Or, are Bush and Cheney suddenly liberal hollyweirds?

Ohhh, the "I must be so smart for not using cuss words" angle. While it will be fun to talk about how much more stupid it is to find a big word substitute when a cuss word will suffice, that is not really the point is it?

I take it you are just trying to distract here. It doesn't matter whether you think it is classy or not, I don't want my TV choices, classy or not, to be limited because someone else is too sensitive. I want my movies to reflect what's real and real ppl come in all kinds, classy and not.

If someone is too sensitive, stop watching it themselves. In fact, I encourage them to limit it to only what they like or think is classy, but why do they have to be an ass and stop everyone else from watching it.

I find it amusing that the Bush/Cheney duo haven't learned by this time that microphones are usually around the leader of the free world and his second in command.

Gee I thought the ruling was on TV programming & the fact that Bush was caught when he was not even aware he was on mike should not have come into play. You are right though, all the profane should get their fill of profanity at the expense of children. I mean why should we care about children when adults desire the lowly things in life?
