Back in the Anita Hill days, I got into a big debate (OK, it was an argument) with my cousin over the Married With Children boycott.. My cousin is one of those Tipper Gore type moms who would get riled over sexually explicit entertainment. I, of course, took the liberal position that everyone is entitled to enjoy the shows (or music or what have you) that the would like and no one should set themselves up as the morality police. This is simply another example of how I am more liberal than conservative. Michale..... CW,

I bet you'll agree with a whole bunch of it. Zappa was quite erudite, and he pulled no punches about heaping scorn on the congressional wives (Tipper Gore wasn't the only one) who had nothing better to do... -CW Michale -
