Ha.

Ever see the temple film, where "Eve" is portrayed standing nude, with her naughty bits strategically covered by some ferns?

Imagine that, an actor pretending to be naked for something she believes is a good cause...

Exactly. Raising money for cancer treatment falls under the auspices of good works in my opinion. Certainly excuses faux nudity.

I don't care about any supposed nudity in advertising, because I'm not a prude. Bring on the conservative hotties advocating the destruction of Medicare and Social Security!

Again I repeat.... YOU and yours would willingly degrade any conservative you hate for doing the same thing, being naked on TV, and "I" nor any other conservative wouldn't fault you for it. We would understand that your reaction was perfectly reasonable.

You however can't give us the same deference. That tells us you are a hypocrite, and without actual values and character, for your judgment of others if fleeting and without standards other than you own relative biases. You judge us because the McCain's, especially Megan McCain is slightly liberal, and you judge us because you like public sexuality, and you judge us because they were critical of a conservative. So, don't pretend you are on some sort of moral high-ground that it was somehow so terrible and "Un-Christian" for someone to make a joke about someone who runs around naked in public.

I mean, I'm all against inappropriate jokes, but this you are stretching to the limit, and absence of reason and fairness. You only like it because it's against a conservative, not because an actual "wrong" was done. But, nothing new with liberals. You judge us for even the most innocuous things, even usually falsely, such as the racism charges, but then your side state and do way more terrible things and get a pass, whereas if a conservative did it, the world would have ended and it would be a media storm. Your side tolerates way greater evil than we do, tolerating your own, but not tolerating ours, even the slight appearance of it. For example, who cares, Reverend Wright, Bill Ayers, the current Preacher, and all the other slimy radicals the left/Obama embraces.... All okay, but heavens forbid a conservative pretends to throw up when a woman publicly goes naked. Another example.... The wars.... Bush etc. evil, but nary a word about the evils of fanatical Islam who's trying to take over and destroy everything we value.

Liberal values are misplaced.... You need to get a clue.


Man, you've sure imagined a massive conspiracy campaign. I guess I get lumped into "YOU", even though you don't have a clue as to my political leanings. I am all for fair play - so McCain's or anyone else's political leanings wouldn't matter to me in reacting to such stupid and obnoxious criticism.
