Wait, I thought Republicans didn't like sex

Representative Jim Moran (D-VA) seems to think Viagra and other ED drug ads are too hot for TV...somehow I am just glad this guy isn't a Republican.

I can agree that it would be improper to air these during Sponge Bob and Dora the Explorer, but honestly the ads aren't that

I don't think they're too racy for nighttime TV, I'm just skeeved out by watching two people my parents' age or older get ready to get it on. Or anyone at any age, really.

Yeah I am too, especially since I watch TV with my parents a lot, but this is not Madonna's "Justify my love" video

No, the ads aren't too racy for shows that are probably watched BY THE TARGET DEMOGRAPHIC FOR THE PRODUCTS. I really doubt that it would be financially smart for the ads to appear on Dora the Explorer; how many potential buyers do they think watch that show? How does that many any sense at all?

As for Sponge Bob, most of the people I know who watch the show aren't kids, most of the humor on the show isn't aimed at little kids, and if they had ads that truly reflected the demographic for who watches and at whom it's aimed I think all of the ads would be for beer bongs. ;)

I don't think the actually air during Sponge Bob and Dora, those were just two kids shows that I could think of...

And Barb, you don't need to advertise for beer bongs, good industrious kid just go to home depot and make them
