*sigh*

Ok, so after November elections we had all these democrats saying how they weep for the future of our nation because Bush got reelected. To stay brief on this let me say I voted for Bush and I don't think our country's going down the shitter anymore than it did when Clinton recieved fellatio in the Oval Office.

What I do weep for is the future of our nation because people are ready to be offended by anything. 2004 was the year to be offened because of television. It all started because millions of people saw a nipple on the Super Bowl. It's something that everyone and I mean everyone has regardless of age, sex, sexual preference, or whatever. (Unless you had a nipplectomy, which I don't know why you would need one medically, though given the attitude post Super Bowl XXXVIII I'm not surprised some fundamentalist groups made them mandatory). However the violence you can see on broadcast TV, the self whoring of reality television, that you could go your entire life and be a better person for not seeing is alright according to the FCC.

Why, you ask, am I writing about this over a year later? Well I came across this today from IMDb.com.

Despite complaints that Sunday's Super Bowl halftime show was bland and forgettable, the FCC received 33 complaints Monday from viewers who either objected to Paul McCartney's rendition of "Get Back," which contains a reference to "California grass," or were upset by the content of some commercials. Those who complained about the ads deprecated one for GoDaddy.com, featuring a young woman who almost bares a breast; ads for erectile dysfunction medication; and a scene in a spot featuring one member of the Queer Eye For the Straight Guy crew ogling a man.

Now this seems just gratuitous. Just plain damn redicilous. I weep for our nation because this is the kind of shit that pisses people off these days.
