Canadian Prime Minister Paul Martin just said "no" to America's Missile Defence. Meanwhile, the Bush administration was busy saying "no" to an episode of the PBS children's show, Postcards from Buster, because it featured lesbian parents in a Vermont home visited by a vacationing cartoon bunny. "Many parents would not want their young children exposed to the lifestyles portrayed," said Education Secretary Margaret Spellings. In addition, a certain sea sponge was targeted by right-wing pressure groups for holding hands with a star fish. A dangerous time to be a cartoon character in America.
