Donahue: Drop Madonna From Super Bowl

Catholic League blowhard Bill Donahue, who has an opinion about everything, is firing out press releases demanding that the NFL drop plans to feature Madonna as the halftime entertainment in Super Bowl 2012. After all, they did pressure a boy band member to drop out in 2004.

The NFL cannot expect Catholics to be treated any different. JC Chasez may be known for some dicey lyrics, but he is chopped meat compared to Madonna. For decades, Madonna has blatantly offended Christians, especially Catholics. The offensive lyrics, lewd behavior and misappropriation of sacred symbols are reason enough not to have her perform. Worse, she has repeatedly mocked the heart and soul of Christianity: Jesus, Our Blessed Mother, the Eucharist and the Crucifixion. If JC Chasez is unacceptable to the NFL to perform during halftime at one of its classic games, Madonna must be deemed unacceptable to perform at the Super Bowl. There is only one playbook in this game.
