It pains me to see self admittedly educated writers defending media backlash as some model of the 2nd amendment when they continue to beat the politically correct war drum but server as nothing more than vehicles to out do one another with obscenities. So many of these shows and comedians have no substance at all, but gain notoriety through pushing the envelope whose boundaries are declared by the media, and defined as though those who feel any different must have some non-secular agenda and they threaten with supreme power.
Your godless right to see Ozzy Ozbourne stumble around his kitchen and mumble-fuck as he steps in a freshly crafted swirl of dog shit is being thwarted by the Christian Gestapo! Comedians are being censored for making jokes about the murder of twenty eight hundred men, women and children on a September morning! What’s next? Will they shut down our educators for likening those victims as members of the Nazi party only to retract those statements to allow reprieve for service workers who did not contribute to Amerikkka’s enslavement of the 3rd world.
I have a hard time with “boogie-man-ism”
Who is the boogie man you ask?
Visions of Oliver Hardy relating to a sleepy haired Stan Laurel as both men are dressed like Bavarian Fairy Tale fairies comes to mind:
“They have great big teeth! And great big eyes!...”
Time goes on; you grow up, no more boogie man, I mean; I check under the bed, the closets; right?
“If we allow a democratic middle east to flourish then we can expect a backlash vote for Muslim extremists!”
You don’t say! And this is based on what, the fact that most young Muslims are pretty progressive thinkers with college educations?
We don’t know, but we can keep showing you that Al’Quedda camp Jihad video until you check under the bed twice.
“Censorship is unconstitutional!”
I fully agree, however I’m at odds with the fact that the founders of this country were concerned that when HBO agrees to syndicate the Soprano’s to network television that the three dozen “fucks” used in place of more descriptive adjectives might be bleeped. When someone outside the media presents a valid argument and that gets shut down I’ll worry. No one is shutting up Ward Churchill, though the media will base a story around the fact that there are protests and people up in arms, no one in the White House has gone after him, left packages in his car or shown up at his house at 3:00 AM. He’s simply an asshole and my 2nd amendment right will allow me and millions of others to continue to call him an asshole. When did we forget that every American possesses their right to speak, when did it become only those with extremist or obscene views who need protection? That fucking worries me.
“Millions have been killed in the name of God…”
A favorite of mine: Pol Pot: Atheist. Josef Stalin: Atheist. Adolph Hitler: Atheist. Saddam Hussein: Atheist.
In a span of 50 years that’s almost 75 million, it appears sometimes people in power can supplement themselves as a higher power in order to kill.
Did the church kill? You bet your hell-bound ass they did. Didn’t they murder non-believers by the millions in the days of the Inquisition? History and Hollywood seem to differ on this one, but if you’re going to make a bad guy, he better be evil and he should have some theocratic agenda, it makes for a scary dude.
Albert Einstein: Believed in God, came up with the theory of energy into matter.
Robert Oppenhimmer: Believed he was the Hindu God Shiva, the destroyer, built a bomb from Einstein’s work and 100,000 Japanese were killed (I’ve also heard 1,000,000, but the cities of Nagasaki and Hiroshima were industrial, not residential.) Einstein made his borscht-belt “I would have worked for the telephone company” one liner shortly after.
George Bush: Talks to God. I have not worried this much since Clinton talked to God, but that was different since he attacked the Branch Davidian Compound after they talked to God, but their God was a fucking asshole evidently.

I am not certain where you stand on the times article... are you mocking it or applauding it?
The whole idea of sentate and congress hearings on indecency makes me absolutely insane. The resources being put forth into making sure that sports stay (preformance-enhancing)drug-free is nothing short of maddening to me. When the relevance of these issues are contrasted with the domestic and international ills can someone please tell me what should logically be placedhigher on the government's priority list?
I love the show Deadwood, as you may garmner by reading previous posts of mine. This goverment wants to regulate pay television now as it does the airwaves? Cocksuckers!
