Why Streisand's hot & bothered
New York Daily News ^ | 12/06/04 | Adam Lisberg

Forget about gory violence on the silver screen. Ignore the suggestive vixens of prime-time TV.

What really, really bothers Barbra Streisand are those impotence drug ads.

"You know, I resent this thing about Hollywood and moral values," Streisand told Time magazine in an interview - until she was interrupted by "Meet the Fockers" co-star Dustin Hoffman.

"Amazing," he said. "There she goes."

"I just can't stand it," Streisand rattled on. "What movies are out now that have questionable moral values? You know what I think has questionable moral values? The Cialis commercials."

Cialis is an anti-impotence drug that improves a man's ability to, uh, function, for up to 36 hours.

Come on, Babs, no movies of questionable moral value? How about "Alexander."

On the other hand, I do agree there are just a few too many of those types of commericals - but then, I have a problem with the number of commericals for prescription drugs in general.

Actually, I found that one the funniest of all, but they must have realized, or been told, that they'd crossed the line with Bob and the Japanese, because they dropped that ad real fast.

What, "foskers"?

If you really wanted to see it, you could buy a ticket for another movie and then go see "Meet the Fockers".

Once we buy a ticket for a movie and go into the theater, the attendents don't care where we go.

Strange picture, it actually looks as if Clinton is pushing her away.

Damn it would take a whole bottle of that stuff to get even slightly aroused by looking at pictures of Babs.
