Maybe some one should send Ted Stevens and Brent Bozell to Europe. Then maybe they wouldn't complain about what's on US TV. We have the most puritanical TV in the Western World already.
The rightwingers complain about the Liberal "nanny state" all the time, yet here they are trying to be the ultimate nannies. It's just like the Justice Department's attmepts to control porn. There seems to be a huge diconnect between the fact that porn is such a huge business and money-making industry and their notion that it goes against community standards. Who do they think is buying all of th=is stuff. There's a parallel there to Bozell's question about who wants to see disturbing themes on TV shows...apparently all of the people who make the CSI and L&O shows such huge ratings hits do. It drives the puritans crazy that they are such a small minority.
