It seems CBS, MTV, and the NFL decided what children should be exposed to tonight. Do you object?

Did you hear the lyrics to the songs? The music was a celebration of crack heads and whores.

Do you think conservative parents should have "changed the channel" or some other equally mindless liberal type solution? You say you don't care what adults do, but do you extend that to us? Can we live our lives without your liberal filth? Can we have football games we can watch with our families? With our children? Does it have to be the "liberal way" every time? Isn't having hollywood, NPR in every market, every network but FOX, PBS, and MTV enough for you liberals? Can't you extend your wonderful "live and let live" to us? Can we watch football without having to listen to your filth? Is that asking too much?

Many parents would have "turned the channel" if they could have. This was no accident - it was an in-your-face insult to conservative parents, grandparents, and the children they cherish.

As a liberal, I don't care what adults choose to view or do. As a teacher and as a parent, I do care that parents get to decide how their children get introduced to sex.

Please read my post again. I'm with you. I didn't think it was appropriate. It's not liberal filth. It's not conservative. It's just inappropriate. I said that I thought parents should choose how to introduce their kids to sexual matters.

I said I was a Liberal and you freaked - I don't think you could read past the point that I said I was a Liberal.

I don't think that "filth" is liberal. I think that we need to understand that parents should have a right to choose what comes into their homes via televsion. By the way, I think that Fox is one of the worst channels as far as inappropriate content goes.

Please try to see beyond the labels and understand what people are saying. That's one of the problems I see on both sides of the spectrum - right and left.
