Oscars & ABC censor Robin Williams - was going to joke about SpongeBob and the religious right

Yes, now it's no longer politically correct to make fun of idiots like James Dobson who think cartoon sponges are part of a secret homosexual plot to take over our children. And the worst part is, networks like ABC aren't just complicit, they're leading the charge for the wackos. As a protest, Robin Williams showed up on stage Sunday night with tape across his mouth:



Reuters does a good job of explaining the story.

More details on what was nixed. It's absolutely ridiculous. See, if Robin had just stuck to discussing $1200 a weekend male hookers in the White House, he'd have hit a topic that the religious right and the Bush administration have no ire about at all.

Someone in Hollywood, please get me a samizdat copy of the Robin Williams skit - you know we'll post it (and keep you anonymous).
