You know it’s an election year when the indecency monster rears its ugly head. Even though the majority of complaints filed with the FCC are coming from the Parents Television Council (and other organized groups), Senator Brownback – with an assist from the always politically correct Senator Frist – is fast-tracking a Senate bill to boost indecency fines TENFOLD from $32,500 to $325,000. Holy Opie & Anthony!
Of course, this critically important Senate action is occurring amidst other indecencies – the Iraq war, the sorry state of New Orleans, $3 gas, rampant phone bugging, stalled out lobby reform, a staggering budget deficit, global warming, and deteriorating international relations.
Hey, but what do I know? Maybe DJs talking about body parts is indeed the top Senate priority.
