I bet all the idiots on the show love Springsteen, Jon Bon Jovi and Obama.

Fortunately - NJ has a little hope because some people voted for Christie.

They need to pass out birth control. You DO NOT want any of those people breeding! Evolution might just start going into De-Evolution.

From the story:

"The network (VH1) requires me to do stuff with my patients that has no relevance to anything," said Dr. Drew Pinsky, the host of "Celebrity Rehab."

And an ethical doctor would do what, Dr. Drew?

(I have trouble with this guy using the title "doctor")

I hesitate to ask what they have him do with his patients. Let me rephrase that, I don’t want to know what he is doing with his patients.

What did they expect? The crew on the Jersey Shore aren’t exactly models of virginity and abstinence.

If you’ve ever seen the show (or Celebrity Sober House), I think the term we are looking for here is “Exploit”

But, people that go on these show agree to it, so it is “Consensual Exploitation”

Yeah, well, so is prostitution, but only that is illegal.

From what I've seen, I think you are at least two or three generations too late on that worry.
