COUCH PARTY HOSTS SAY...

"We pay for cable TV and with V-Chips and parental oversight, we can be sure our children are not watching inappropriate programs."
---
"It's just another hidden agenda, once again the so called 'moral majority' is doing anything it can to control people... . Thank God for the ACLU."
---
"I don't want Congress intruding in my life and telling me what I can and cannot watch. I am an adult and should be treated as such."
---
"If you don't like a show just turn it off. It really is the American way."
