What the hell? What a bunch of hypocritical assholes! Ace, they are after adult porn now, not just child porn as has been the case in the past.

Why do these fucking jerks waste time and money telling woman what that can and cannot do with their bodies? Why are they wanted to waste time and money telling adults what they can and cannot view? Nevermind, attack a multi-billion dollar industry?

(Reuters) - The Republican Party is calling for a crackdown on pornography in a move that could pit social conservatives against hotel operators, television providers and other businesses that profit from the sale of sexually explicit material.
As they prepare to nominate Mitt Romney as their presidential candidate for the November 6 election, Republicans have added language to their official platform that anti-smut activists said would encourage the federal government to step up prosecution of pornography involving adults.
"Current laws on all forms of pornography and obscenity need to be vigorously enforced," the platform says, according to a draft obtained by Reuters. Republicans are planning a Tuesday vote on the document, a nonbinding statement of principles that tackles everything from monetary policy to abortion.
Though previous Republican platforms have called for increased prosecution of child pornography, this appears to be the first time that the party has called for a crackdown on sexually explicit material involving adults - a multi-billion-dollar industry.
Obscenity has been notoriously difficult to define in a legal context. The Supreme Court in 1973 held that to be obscene, material must depict sex in a manner that offends contemporary community standards and is devoid of artistic or scientific value.

Both candidates SUCK! Hate them both...

 

Only problem is that depending on where you live your vote dont count unless you are with the state
areas popular vote....

Texas goes Romney no mater what...

The Electoral college at its best...


Only problem is that to me porn is not a good enough reason to let someone hang around that ain't making it work....

person does not do the job Fire Him....

 

True, Vivid (the biggest company in the industry) already told them they had better back off but it's the hypocrisy and that it will now always be on the table.

 

I agree with that, Obama isn't making it work and porn isn't a reason to keep him in office. I'm voting for Goofy... Thought about Imus but I think Goofy has a better handle on internatinal relations.

 

They are playing to a crowd...never happen...

If it did I am not so sure it would be all that bad...

If there one thing Americans have stashed more than guns, it is porn...:excited:

vcr.dvd.mags.books.and untold terabytes of it...

Look at the sale of Shades of Gray....hi class porn...

 

Bullshit you change your story more than Lyin' Ryan and Romney.

And what was intended is in the constitution which on other days you swear up and down isn't being followed when it was actually the most liberal document ever written at the time.

But just when there's a democratic president right Ace. I'll go back and say this again. You never bitched once about Bush doubling the national debt and starting two wars that were kept off the federal budget.

You're not a true conservative either Ace. Just a convenient one.

That's not a guess Ace. That's just trying to believe your own bullshit.

No only when you're a Republican. What hypocrisy?? On another day you would be claiming its president Obama and the democrats that don't care about our troops and the sacrifices they make.

Never heard of Afghanistan Ace?? How many troops have died there? How many died this last week.

Now there's bullshit and there's really offensive bullshit and your last statement was the latter.

 

For sure, it's not even that well written and people are still eating it up. :excited:

 

And the owner of Vivid can't be arrested on Florida obscenity laws arrested and made to stand trial there?

I think you better take a look at what happened only a few months ago.

Or see what happened to Harry Reems in the 1970's.

To think the party of Christian Fundamentalists won't try to actually outlaw porn and abortion is pretty naive I think.

 

Not saying they won't try and won't keep trying. For now, it's on the table and I don't think they can push it through.

 

If enough conservative/Republican/Tea Baggers get elected they damn sure can. In fact I think to outlaw abortion it would only take one more supreme court justice.

And if McCain would have won the last election we already would have had two more conservative activists on the bench and Roe v Wade would already be over turned.

 

If is a big word. You're right of course but with this country being as polarized as it is getting those numbers won't be easy, I don't think.

 

Please it doesn't even take more than 50% to win an election so someone is going to win whether you like any of the candidates or not.

Just like the scholars that point out this is the most conservative House of Representatives since before civil rights.

 

It is the House and Senate that I'm talking about. If the bi-partisan breakdown remains they won't push the bills through.

 

Only because the Senate remained in Democratic control and it was extremely close.

Elections count whether you believe that or not.

But thinking nothing will change or nothing will happen is not realistic.

 

Vote for Mitt, ban all coffee, tea, and other harmful drugs. Make it a capital offense to own any of them, bring back the death penalty, and especially for gays.

And we must keep the wars going to make the defense contractors owners even richer. It also helps the population control, too.

 

Well Mitt Romney remains more of a mystery than ever. Did any of you happen to see the disastrous interviews they both gave on Sunday. Here's a recap of some of them where neither Romney nor Ryan could name a single tax loophole they would close to pay for their tax cuts.
