never ceases to amaze me how touchy the american censorship board is. i seem to remember in my stay in america a few years back seeing beavis and butthead airing at 10 am in the morning, i mean hell if your gonna allow kids to see 2 cartoon characters talking about 'thingies', 'scoring chicks', and all the rest of it, then surely this add deserves a proper airing |
well said.
i've seen this commercial loads of times on tv ... in my country.
and i find it funny and creative. |

Welcome to the world of the FCC, a bunch of hippies who have Communist control over everything that airs on TV. Now, lemme watch that commercial...
EDIT: What was the name of that song? |

Holy crap! How idiotic puritans got so influential in the US never ceases to baffle me. That add used to be on all the time in Australia (except here its called "Lynx" not axe). What could possibly be offensive in that add? |

The Fundies took over the Republican party sometime in the 80s starting at the local level and moving up. The real conservatives like Barry Goldwater were very against this, but they were on the losing side.

Bush denounces gay marriage in address to evangelical Christians
President Bush told evangelical Christians what they wanted to hear Thursday, ticking off highlights of his "compassionate conservative" agenda, including halting late-term abortions and banning gay marriage.
Evangelical Christians represent a core constituency for the president, strongly backing him in the 2000 election. He opened his address via satellite to the National Association of Evangelicals Convention in Colorado by lavishing praise on the group: "You're doing God's work with conviction and kindness."
The president reiterated his intention to get a constitutional ban on gay marriage and said he would continue pressing to allow religious charities a greater hand in delivering social services. He pushed another hot-button issue for conservatives when he said he would continue to nominate to the courts like-minded judges who "will interpret the law and not legislate from the bench."
Bush placed special emphasis on his efforts to curtail abortion, a goal fervently pursued by conservative Christians. "We're working to build a culture of life," he said, noting that he had taken "an important step" last November when he signed legislation outlawing certain late-term abortions. Three federal judges immediately blocked the law, and Bush promised, "We will vigorously defend this law against any attempt to overturn it in the courts." However, Bush's Justice Department this week backed off its effort to subpoena abortion records from six Planned Parenthood affiliates as part of the government's defense of the new law.

56k in puerto rico, cant see the commercial..
of all the networks that would ban a commercial, of course its going to be MTV. they are full of nothing but hypocrits and bureacrats. if one person complains about a certain thing, Mtv just bans the entire affair such as in this case a commercial.
i also hate how MTV censors like t-shirts and logos in the music videos. who wants to see a fuzzy blur on your favorite artists shirts?? WTF:mad: :mad:
ahh, calvin & hobbes. i have about 10 of the comic books. its the only comic ive ever read. |
