First they came for the Simpsons and now they want SpongeBob Squarepants. The Ukraine is considering a move to censor several children's shows after a new study from a conservative commission labeled the shows "a real threat" to the country's youth.

The Ukraine's National Expert Commission for Protecting Public Morality released the report, which attacks several U.S. and international programs as detrimental to the country.

Psychologist Irina Medvédeva is quoted in the study, alleging that children aged 3 to 5 years old, "pull faces and make jokes in front of adults they don't know, laugh out loud and repeat nonsense phrases in a brazen manner," after viewing the shows.

Some of the accusations leveled against the programming in the study:

•SpongeBob Squarepants: "gay"
•Teletubbies: "Deliberately aims to create subnormal (men), who spend all day in front of the television with their mouths open swallowing all types of information," and promotes the "psychology of losers."
•Shrek: "containing sadism"
•South Park: "reincarnation propaganda"
•Japanese Anime: "A clear example of sexist propaganda"

Telletubbies are absolutely fabulous watching while smoking (something other than tobacco).

Really, if you haven't done it....you should.
