So, if she sits down like that, what do you think happens? Any adjustments would result in over the line exposure. I don't care what you look like, that's indecent.

The outfit she wore was only risque because she has a sexy body. I'm not really for the bleached blond fake boob look but you have to admit she has a nice figure. If she was flat chested and weighed 20 more lbs. no one would have said a word to her. Anyway my house cat is very smart, don't insult him. So not nice of you!

That's my beef: The fake apology with the winking and the har-har's. Skirt length policy is separate. Not apologizing would have been a matter of debate, but a defensible position. Giving a fake apology is worse than not giving one at all. Bad form. If you’re going to apologize, let it be real. That’s my beef: The fake apology with the winking and the har-har’s.

She was dressed as a street walker (and has pretty much replicated that look on the talk shows I've surfed by) and clearly has the brains of a house cat. Now, you can't throw all the stupid people off airplanes (how would congress-critters gett around?) but you can sure insist on basic decent dress. Also, if you want to ding people in the 2000's for stupid stuff they did in the 1970's then you'd have to take everyone who voted for Carter..... -TF Why should they apologize?
