You are right about the decay of America. We no longer have any high standards in America. Our kids are being taught by teachers, who themselves have poor written, communication, analytical or math skills. We graduate "young adults" who don't have the basic skills to survive or contribute anything meaningful to this country.

I guess if it is OK to produce songs glorifying the murder of cops and the rape of women, then it is OK for ABC's OSCARS to honor a film sanctifying suicide bombers murdering civilians. It's not OK with me, but I guess as long as the profit is there, Hollywood will do it.

The Hollywood film industry has a very good chance of taking the disatisfaction of the public with them to a much higher level with one poor TV show.

The 50's witch hunt that cleaned up Hollywood once upon a time was a revolt by SPONSORS, not "evil McCarthy-ites". It may well be cycling around once again...
