I'm blown away by the huge sociopolitical battle that's been raging in the US since Janet Jackson exposed her right breast on television. I guess I've been living in Scandinavia too long (where nudity is like a national pastime). I just don't understand anymore. Now the FBI is getting involved?
Someone, please tell me that things aren't getting as bad over there as they seem to be. I'd expect this sort of insipid moralizing from the Taliban, but not a modern state in the early 21st century. Please just grow up.

proposed class action lawsuit "on behalf of all Americans" who watched the Super Bowl halftime show and were somehow injured by Miss Jackson's adorned nipple.
Posted by: j at February 6, 2004 12:42 AMi would laugh, if it weren't all so utterly depressing. so the failure of the US intelligence agencies in providing solid evidence to support the US war machine gets a little attention, but an exposed booby gets the entire nation in an uproar, and immediate action for federal inquiry? niiiiice...

The streaker that happened right before the 3rd quarter started was much more entertaining, and that was not shone at all. Its just boobs folks – calm the fuck down.
