I'm so sick of hearing, "Get over it." That's what the dems said the entire time clinton was in office. I have a hard time believing you're a true conservative.

You simply ask, "Why do we care about a womans breast?" How foolish.

"The issue isn't nudity but the implicit endorsement of acting out male fantasies of violent and invasive non-consensual sexual behavior. Never mind the message it sends to international audiences--say young, angry Muslims, to pick a random example, who may have been wondering whether America really is immoral." He added that this year's game was telecast to 229 countries and territories, including China for the first time."

The total tonage of ignorance of some is always a curiosity.

Evidently you do not agree with Peggy Noonan's conclusions about our culture.

Ms. Noonan's use of the word 'paganism', when referring to the whole halftime display, struck me more than any other thing she said. If you have read Augustine's, The City of God you will understand my reasoning, if not, let me provide a brief summary.

After the Goths (early Germans) overran and sacked Rome, many of the Romans who managed to escape placed the blame for the downfall of the Roman Empire on Christianity and its adherents. In The City of God, Augustine carefully examines their argument and proceeds to deconstruct and expose its multitude of weaknesses. Augustine shows irrefutably that the blame for the corruption and eventual destruction of the empire rests solely with the leaders embrace of paganism and idolatry.

Our culture is crumbling about our ears and it is our like embrace of these same twins that is leading us to a similar fate as Rome's. Janet Jackson's sad performance and uncovering of her body is not to blame, it is our refusal as a society to bend our knee and acknowledge the One who came to take our place on Calvary's tree, namely Jesus Christ of Nazareth! We need to thank the mighty triune God everyday for making us from the dirt we walk on and for providing the only way for us to avoid an eternity separated from the Lord of Heaven.

You don't get it, the overexposure of Janet Jackson was only the culmination of a totally offensive, no talent half-time show. The music was terrible, the obsession with penises was revolting and the misuse of the American flag was offensive, then Janet and Justin topped it al off. I was more offended by the guy who couldn't stop playing with himself on stage than Janet Jackson's exposed breast.

Buddy, this was a watershed moment.

It was the SUPER BOWL, in front of 90 Million people. Lotsa Flyover-Country Families in that 90 Million. Lotsa Bush people.

The whisper "I TOLD YOU SO"!!! is deafening.

I don't think you can stop Britney Spears form appearing on Network TV, but that would only make her more popular and rich. (Our Bridge Bardot or Marilyn Monroe).

Just remember how it look coming across the World into the living rooms of millions of Muslims.

I think it gave Bush about oh, 49 States!

Time for America to take a bath.

And you know what's so funny about it?

IMO, covered-up is more sexy.
