Oh Come ON Congress!

Christian Film's PG Rating Troubles Congress
Are you serious? It's P-Fricken-G people. Over half of disney's cartoons end up with a PG rating now. I'm sure that if this football coach had been struggling with a Satanic Cult the same politicians would have begged for it to be PG-13 or something. Even if the rating WAS made purely because it was discussing christianity (which it was NOT), why is that such a bad thing? I think "Parental Guidance" should be not only suggested, but expected involved when it comes to the topic of religion.
Anyway Congress, stop pandering to the overtly religious and do your damn job. Myabe, jsut MAYBE, you should worry much more about some Crazy Communist Leader launching missiles toward our country instead of movie ratings?

Come on! I think it's a huge deal!! PG ratings are an OUTRAGE! Forget the war, let's strive so hard to protect our children that they rebell 10 fold after 18!!! I want hardcore drug users and porn freaks for kids! That's why I want G ratings!!!!!!

Oh gees. Like anybody worries about a PG rating anyway! And why would congress care about movie ratings? What does that have to do with their jobs?

Humor Girl - I know!! Next thing we know, hardcore porn is going to be getting PG ratings!
Anisa - Seriously, in the last 20 years politics has begun to get completely out of control.
Whiteguy - True enough, unfortunately I have to avoid TV for a good two month again or risk throwing things at it :O(
Kira - I know, I'm sure most parents don;'t think twice about letting their kid see a PG moving anyway. heh.
