Athens Olympic committee to FCC: "Go f*ck yourself."

[docwebster]

In so many words, anyway.

"As Americans surely are aware, there is great hostility in the world today to cultural domination in which a single value system created elsewhere diminishes and degrades local cultures," she said in her commentary.

"In this context, it is astonishingly unwise for an agency of the U.S. government to engage in an investigation that could label a presentation of the Greek origins of civilisation as unfit for television viewing."

And be warned: tomorrow I will very likely be posting a roaring, flaming, bile-spewing anti-Shrub diatribe on exactly what I think of him, the moronically excessive innaugural, neo-conservatism and I hope the smirking fuck spins on it.

I just love it. "Don't even."
That's all they're saying. Just pointing at the Rabid dog and saying "Don't Even..."

The FCC really pisses me off. It's not like the people complaining were being FORCED to watch the opening ceremonies, after all.

Don't like what your kids are watching on TV? Then GROW A DAMN SPINE and don't LET them watch it. Sheesh.

FFS, it was *censored* by the Greek Orthodox Church...I mean, Greek government, to remove the historically accurate nudity in the first place! Now they're complaining about *simulated* or *suggested* nudity???

If they do this, we are so placing phalloi on the Neoclassical statuary of the Plaza here in KC, I swear. It's historically accurate (http://www.insecula.com/oeuvre/O0009498.html), after all!
