The nation's new education secretary, Margaret Spellings, who is in her third day on the job, attacked PBS for airing a cartoon that depicts a fuzzy, wuzzy bunny encountering some lesbians (that's gay ladies, for you fellow red staters) whilst traipsing through bucolic Vermont. PBS, which receives money from the feds, pulled the episode, called "Postcards from Buster." Spellings wrote that "Congress and the Department's purpose in funding this programming certainly was not to introduce this kind of subject matter to children."
TKID5 thinks it's high time the Bush administration took a stand on gays; we were beginning to wonder if Bush was a tad light in the loafers the way he's letting the gays run things around here. TKID5 knows he speaks for the other Kids when he says he hopes Spellings and the rest of the schoolin' bureaucrats crack down on other cartoons, particularly those with ambiguously gay characters, such as Smithers on "The Simpsons" and Tom and Jerry of the clasic cat-chases-mouse-capers. Now, we know that some people say Margaret Spellings doth protest too much, if you know what I mean (that's a man, man), but we're glad she's on the case. Americans should be taking their family values from wholesome ladies, like the Bush twins and Jessica Simpson, not lesbian cartoon hussies.
