George Carlin and the Seven Dirty Words

<p>George Carlin passed away.  He will forever be remembered (at least among legal scholars) for his Filty Words monologue which was the subject of a U.S. Supreme Court case.  See <a href=”http://supreme.justia.com/us/438/726/case.html”>FCC v. Pacifica Foundation</a>, 438 U.S. 726 (1978).  The Appendix to the Opinion includes a verbatim transcript of the monologue prepared by the Federal Communications Commission.  That’s U.S. tax dollars paying some bureaucrat to transcribe an indecent monologue.</p>
