Oh perish the thought that might actually to have to bother to monitor the viewing habits of your children when big brother can do it for you. Apparently, conservatives have embraced a Brave New World of government paternalism.

?

Conservatives have always embraced a paternalistic paternal code. I give you Judaism, Christianity, and Islam.

You are confused between censorship and privacy. I don't care if Howard Stern and his followers, homosexuals, and other sexual hedonists go practice their beliefs so long as they don't make me spend time keeping them out of my house.

I suppose you are content that a man wearing only a black tape across his private parts walking down the street is in the right to freely express himself. All you have to do is make your children look the other way, if you can make them. If you see the same on TV, just change the station. Nice use of your time constantly steering your children through a growing barrage of shock jocks, in your own house no less.

Why can't the perverts go down to the red light district with their own kind practicing their perverse habits privately as they did in the old days leaving the rest of us alone to our own privacy? Why do exhibitionists need a right to be in our homes.
