Pat Boone: Censorship in the arts is "healthy."
A healthy society needs censorship to survive, 1950s musical icon Pat
Boone said yesterday. He added that he would welcome strong content
restrictions governing movies and other artistic works.

7. this from a guy whose daughter did the #2 worst pop song
..of all time, "You Light Up my Life," in which she demonstrated she knew one piano chord. I suppose he's blaming all those talented people out there who aren't basing everything they do on fundy insanity for keeping his little girl off the charts.

(worst pop song of all time was "Muskrat Love," by Captain and Tenille)
