Johannes, the problem with Quayle making an issue out of this Murphy Brown character is that he himself represents a less than ideal leader to so many people.... it would be a huge farce if he wasnt serious.

For example, lets say hypothetically I am a single parent, which is not completely ideal. What do I have over Quayle? Well, for one thing, Im a lot smarter than he is. Sure, his kids were raised in a 2 parent household, but it was a dumb household, and who knows what kind of torture his kids had to endure being the sons of Mr. Potatoe-head. So hes not ideal either. Who is a better parent between the two of us?

This Murphy Brown situation is particularly annoying because that show was designed after a real person (Linda Ellerbee) who in my mind is a monument to society compared to Quayle. Of course Quayle was in the National Guard.... so that counts for something.... nah, Ellerbee is still better.

I think the best thing is just not to embrace this moral policing.
