I offered the suggestion because I know of numerous government officials who are also members of GLOs--in particular, Kathleen Babineaux-Blanco (Governor of Louisiana, KD) and Christine Gregoire (Governor of Washington, KD) who would probably not appreciate the negative stereotype of Greeks portrayed in these shows. I was agreeing with a previous poster who felt there were probably better ways of approaching this situation. Contrary to popular belief, government officials DO deal with other situations, aside from the War in Iraq. And in case you have forgotten, censorship is a regular part of our society--think television show ratings, cd ratings, no nudity on tv, etc. Give me a break.
