Religious right says bathtubs are offensive in TV commercials

It's one thing to have the right to protest, it's another to make an ass of yourself while doing so. The American Family Association, a far-right organization better known for its virulent homophobia and being accused of a long history of anti-Semitism, is now attacking Burger King for being "anti-family" because the hamburger giant has a new commercial showing a dad in a bathtub pretending he's "SpongeBob No Pants" - the guy's his wife gives him a look like he's a moron.

You see, depicting a man who might have no pants while taking a bath - and check out the commercial, you don't even see the guy's chest because of the soap suds, let alone anything else - is now anti-family. And apparently even worse, depicting a dad who is acting goofy is a big ole sin.

The commercial is really cute, and goofy. And you'll see more skin by far in a Pampers commercial than you will in this one. But the far-right isn't about legitimate exercises in free speech. They're about lies. They know they can't get what they want by playing fair - they're fringe extremists and the public knows it. And as Joe Murray, their former spokesman has already shown, the only one with no clothes is the prissy American Family Association.

You can see the commercial here. I flagged it as inappropriate since the AFA says it's inappropriate. I mean, how dare they post sexually explicit commercials online where children might see them. Do the AFA a favor and report their commercial to YouTube. It should be behind a wall at the very least.
