American families are being asked to buy a bag of goods, and what they are being asked to buy is called the censor chip. Now, it might look good, and it might even smell good, but if you really think about it, censorship is a bad idea. Let us keep the feds out of the family room, and let us stop and prevent a government-issue TV guide, because, after all, mom and dad know better than any Washington censor. Mr. Chairman, I urge a yes vote for the Coburn amendment because the censor chip crumbles when you read the fine print.
