1. Did you see MediaWhoresonline---they have a link to AFA to do just this!

I mean, come on, is MW serious? Is it satire/sarcasm that I'm NOT getting????

Get over it--if this were in Europe, she would have been topless at the beginning of the how.

2. Send her this link........school kids like cupcakes, right??

4. Now there's an idea for the Valentine's Party next week.

Thanks SoCal!! :hi:

[Bozita]

11. nice cupcake...great find...looks like the real thing

porn in cooking magazines...sheeeez, what's next?

[SoCalDem]

16. It's not porn.. It's cake :)

just icing and a hershey's kiss :)

[LTR]

3. Wildmon needs a cold beer and a blow job

but not necessarily in that order.

[Alenne]

5. How the hell did I miss the gyrating transvestites?

The only thing I saw was Janet's breast and not much of it. But I wasn't looking for things to be offended by.

[ScreamingMeemie]

6. I know...I'm kind of bummed out. The description sounds so way

much more exciting...

[cmd]

7. My reply to the e-mail would be

Dear Co-Room Mom.

I hope you replied to this immediately. It is so much more important than being lied to about WMDs in Iraq. After all how can something like this compare with over 500 dead Americans and thousand of dead Iraqis! You can be sure I will be handling this as I see fit.



Of course, you may have to handle the next classroom event all by yourself.

[ScreamingMeemie]

10. It is very hard co-room momming with a fundie...

I don't think I would mind because his teacher is an amazing Dem. We have wonderful conversations. :hi:

[NightTrain]

8. I got that e-mail, too!

I'm still trying to figure out who would've sent it. Certainly it was no one who knows me!

[ScreamingMeemie]

9. It's amazing ain't it? That people would make these assumptions

that we are offended and horrified...

She should no better...me with all my Satanic campaign buttons and all.

[Nlighten1]

12. This looks like a "Facts of Life" letter...

what has that freak's name? Welchell?

[ScreamingMeemie]

15. It scares me that people get bent about this.

:scared:

[dolo amber]

13. What?!

Janet Jackson showed a boob?

Why, that's the first I've heard of it! And the strangest thing happened today, someone told me Elvis was dead! :o

;)

This freakin' crap's gonna have a longer shelf life than Twinkines, I tells ya...:eyes:

[ScreamingMeemie]

14. and I try to ignore it and then Bam! It shows up in my inbox.

Sheesh. :hi:

[davsand]

17. Somebody had a great response to this in GD today.

Essentially, it was a still of Janet Jackson with her boob hanging out next to a photo of some poor kid in Iraq covered with blood and minus limbs.

Damn funny to me that people can get all cranked up about her boob on TV for a few seconds but they could give a flaming crap about the atrocities of our little Iraq invasion.

You may want to respond with something like that and ask her which is worse... As a Mom, I'd hope maybe that reality would make her think a bit. If she can't imagine how she'd feel if that was HER kid--then she is not worthy of notice.

Gawd, the selective vision of the conservatives just numbs my mind.

18. Those photos are the ultimate reply ... Which is worse?

[Bozita]

23. Link to photos -- Take a look -- Which is worse?

-warning-

Graphic violence

[YouMustBeKiddingMe]

19. The halftime show included all of that??

a.. Janet Jackson grabbing her breasts
b.. Sean P. Diddy repeatedly fondling his crotch
c.. Striptease cheerleaders
d.. Gyrating transvestites
e.. Simulated lesbian sex
f.. Jackson and Timbwerlake groping each other

All I've ever heard about was the breast incident. Are they making the rest of this up?? Diddy fondling his diddy? Gyrating transvestites? Simulated lesbian sex? Groping?

WTF? Did that really happen?

[Alenne]

20. They are exaggerating

[YouMustBeKiddingMe]

24. LOL!

And they wonder why people don't take them seriously when they make up hysterical shit like this??

I gotta admit, gyrating transvestites is pretty creative, LOL! Horrors! LOL!

[Catherine Vincent]

22. Actually it was Nelly that was grabbing his crotch and not Pdiddy.

I guess some people think those two look alike.:-)

[mykpart]

21. If it was so offensive,

how come she watched it right til the end?
