Janet & Stern offend the moral climate of Conservatives in America MORE than
the bloodbath of Columbine because their offense is titular SEXUALITY.
Suicide bombers in Iraq? Terrorists levelling office towers? Absolutely
fine...because it's "news" and sometimes the world is filled with
evil-doers.
Janet's tit? Why that's immoral because it promotes sex, and promiscuity and
moral decay and my, God, Martha someone's fornicatin' on my TV and now some
of them want to go to San Fransisco and get married to each other. The
country's goin' to hell in a handbasket, Martha. HELLLLL, I tell you.
To think, if they had created a reality TV show based on the Misadventures
of Bill Clinton we'd be watching XXX porn on broadcast television right now
rather than having naughty bits digitized and cut out of innocuous, average,
boring "Must See" TV.
What a difference a dolt makes.
