To all this, the Christian is tempted to respond, So where have you been all these years? Yeah, that's a chuckler!

Lots of things have shifted since W took office. Clinton made a joke of the Oval Office; conservatives are trying to re-set the moral tone of this country. Keep the momentum going.

" ...exposure of Janet Jacksons breast during the halftime concertif you can call it that... "It looked like a breast to me.

The FCC ahs approved the use of the "f" word as long as it is not used in a sexual content.

You have to wonder why it is that those who worry that our mere existence offends radical Islamic cultures arent doing more to fight this kind of cultural rot? No wonder radical Islamic leaders are able to convince their followers that the West is decadent. I keep hearing de-testicled wonders like this, fretting over offending the muslim "culture". If it pi$$es them off, I say Janet Jackson should go on television every night at 8 PM and juggle her untamed hoochies in the wind.
Friggin' wussies must be in charge.

The Super Bowl halftime show has gone steadily downhill since the year it featured Michael Jackson, surrounded by children, continually grabbing his crotch as he danced.

To all of the above, let me add these observations about network TV:
1. Many shows that air in the 8:00--9:00 hour, the supposed "Family Hour," have humor based on sexual innuendo, if not on outright sexually direct statements. For instance, I am often amazed that "Friends" airs during this time slot.
2. When these and other comedies that originally did air after 9:00 end up in syndication, they air in the 6:00--8:00 time slot. Can you imagine that episode of "Seinfeld" called "Master of My Domain" airing on the local Fox station at 6:30? That sort of thing happens every day!

Muck the Fuslims. Their "holy" book says they can four different wives and any number of concubines. (Simultaneously?). That's what I call an orgy. And then there are the 72 virgins and 28 boys waiting for them in heaven if they kill a non-muslim. The whole "religion" is a fusion of pornography and torture and mass murder.
P. S. - I don't like Janet Jackson either.

All I can say is this is what the discussion is about, and not some massive attack from plane or whatever on the Superbowl stadium. From the looks of it, we foiled an attack.

Far more graphic incidents occur every day of the week on HBO, Showtime, MTV, and even on some network programs.Big difference here. One expects to see unsavory, offensive content there and one is usually warned up front and can plan to avoid the program....

You have to wonder why it is that those who worry that our mere existence offends radical Islamic cultures arent doing more to fight this kind of cultural rot? Because we remember our history, and don't expect appeasement to work any better for us than it did for the upper-class twit with the umbrella.

Timberlake has one problem with his story: The MOMENT he came off the stage he was interviewed by that guy from Entertainment Tonight (they aired it yesterday) and he said, "We're Just Giving Them Something To Talk About." That was his quote exactly. Everyone they spoke with seemed to have expected it. So to blame this on an accident is, frankly, insulting.

Ten years from now a similar lowlife like Timberlake will expose himself during the halftime show as a similar lowlife like Jackson will perform fellatio on him. It will be defended later as either teaching young girls necessary sex education, or an oral malfunction!

When something unfortunate like this happens while the kids are watching it's a good time to explain to the kids why you find this behavior silly, stupid, bad, inappropriate. Tell the kids this is what happens when a performer has to resort to shock tactics to compensate for not having enough talent to entertain. Help the kids develop their critical faculties because in this culture they will certainly need those skills. I don't see how you can have a TV in the house unless you're willing to do this on a regular basis.
