In America, the "Bob and Tom show" is a nationally syndicated radio show on the Q-stations of ClearChannel Broadcasting
Anyway, Friday March 6, 2009 one of their guests was a jewish comedian and circumcision came up...
They said that if Chick wasn't already circumcised that they'd have it done on the show. They had a tribute song to circumcision but they didn't get around to playing it. Someone and I think it may have been the comedian said that some countries circumcise women and Kristi immediately joined in and said yeah let's not talk about that! The comedian said he knew someone who had to be done as an adult and claimed that it was much more painful as an adult than when a child because in jewish tradition they give the baby a few sips of alcohol and a local anesthetic "which has a numbing effect"
Clearly, I am not happy.

So, express displeasure at it, but try to be funny enough to hope for an On Air read... Must be funny to sophmoric humor, have seriousness behind it, good facts, throw in a bit of satire, and drop some funny sounding names in hopes of getting them some free ad time on a national radio show...
Dear Bob and Tom,
One of your guests on Friday March 6, I forget who since I thought they weren't that funny, went off on a tangent on being Jewish and Circumcision. One of you mentioned that if Chick weren't already circumcised (presumably Bob and Tom are too), you'd have done that to him on air; so I've thought up a couple alternatives...
Make Chick start up "Foreskin Restoration" for at least a couple weeks if not a month or more. It's a slow process so you'll have some running jokes, the devices are akward to wear and pretty goofy looking. Plus the names are GREAT! I am NOT making these up: "The PUD", "TugAhoy", "Yourskin Cone"...
Or you could have Kristi get a labiaplasty with hood removal since those are the equal structures on women, and it's coming up on what would be perfect timing! It was March 30th 1997 the Female Genital Mutilation Bill became law, and protects all girls under 18. (This will be 12th anniversary of the FGM law, there's going to be a march on Washington yet again this year trying to get the same protection for boys) http://www.stopinfantcircumcision.org/2009SICshed.htm
If it's funny to do that to a male, it's gotta be just as funny with a female, right? Can't just change the subject, because you like one and not the other; either both are funny, or both are horrible. I'm not going to mention any of the many other things lost by circumcision, or the effects when you get old, this letter is too long already and you can find it online in any search engine.
Come on guys, circumcision was made mainstream in America by John Harvey Kellogg (the cereal guy), and it's been claimed to cure everything from Masterbation, Common Cold, Tuberculosis, Cervical Cancer, AIDS...they've all been disproved, but really whose gonna let THAT stop them from going after their son with a knife?

If anyone else would like to join me in sharing displeasure with them, feel free. Also, anybody want to get the angry villagers with torches and pitchforks? Angry listeners are often listened to if there are enough of us.
