Howard Dean would have you present a national ID to access your own computer in your own home. Granted, he's a nut, but for a major candidate to even have such an opinion tells you where we are headed.
Personally, I'd rather see the FCC back out and see those offended stop running to the government and instead goto the advertisers, who can actually put some pressure on Viacom, etc. Hundreds of thousands, perhaps even millions of dollars of fines haven't exactly slowed Howard Stern down. Long term advertising contracts do.
Heck, any amount Viacom/CBS is fined, is probably smaller than the payout from just one of their SuperBowl commercials.
I shouldn't take a jab at those who see something that offends them and immediately run to the FCC, but they really need to learn that the advertisers control things, and it's the NFL, and most players in the NFL are definitely not role models for small children (except for Kurt Warner and Brett Favre and the few others like them).
