This deep lesson in moral philosophy from the man who said Dobson needs a blow-job?

Skip pebbles off the surface all you want. Maybe your readers, like you, don't understand multi-front propagandizing. Hollywood loves and depends on you for your shrugging off their efforts to capture and re-mold the values of the next generation. Sing it with them, if you like: commercials are worth spending hundreds of millions of dollars, because they affect people's thinking — but half-hour cartoons and two-hour movies are just shows!

Deep, yes. Just not deep thinking.

Dan

There will always be people who see ghosts under every bed and monsters in every closet. You are one of those people. Don't even pretend to think you're somehow tapped into this Great Conspiracy Against Us, and you're the only warrior who can possibly save the innocent. That's your ego talking, Dan.
