WARSAW (Reuters) - Poland's conservative government took its drive to curb what it sees as homosexual propaganda to the small screen on Monday, taking aim at Tinky Winky and the other Teletubbies.

Ewa Sowinska, government-appointed children rights watchdog, told a local magazine published on Monday she was concerned the popular BBC children's show promoted homosexuality.

She said she would ask psychologists to advise if this was the case.

I wonder how the psychologists will respond.

2. I blame "Bewitched" for making me gay.

Paul Lynde, Agnes Moorhead, Maurice Evans, Dick Sargent...yep. They made me gay.

10. My Polish Grandma didn't

She didn't like being in a concentration camp at all. She moved here later in life and changed the channel anytime anything about the war came on T.V.

The country with the largest number of people that helped the jews was Poland. It was also the only country with a death penalty imposed by Germany for not turning jews in. Slap them in the face for their bravery and compassion.

In addition I had a Polish Catholic neighbor who was in the camps. She was in her 50's and still would only talk to a few people. She rarely answered the door and would retreat to her room after work. It stayed with her for life. Did she support the Holocaust?

11. Oh, please.

Speak in hyperboles much? :eyes: there's a LOT of homophobia in Poland.

12. It's the truth.

The only exaggeration was "The Poles wholeheartedly supported the holocaust." I never said there wasn't homophobia in Poland. I was replying to the comment about the holocaust. :eyes: Your reading comprehension sucks, sister.

4. Is Poland located in Europe or in Lynchburg Virginia?

What year is this anyway? With headlines like these, you feel like you're thrown back into some sort of temporal or spatial distortion.

Good heavens Poland, get a grip.

6. Jerry falwell lives! Insert Polish joke here....

7. LOL. I'm scared...Not.

The world knows we've always been here, there and everywhere. This trumpeted chasing of tails makes me laugh. Don't give it a second thought.

more valuable?
