US porn industry seeks multi-billion dollar bailout
Posted: 1/7/2009 9:15:01 PM
Is it just me or do you think Larry Flynt and Joe Francis, who not that long ago cut a deal on charges of child abuse and prostitution, are pushing the envelope wanting a 5 BILLION dollar bailout for the porn industry?

Though sales are down in some areas...so to speak....""The 13-billion-dollar industry is in no fear of collapse," they say. "But why take chances?" "

Larry also figures people can do without cars but not sex and Congress must do something to rejuvenate America's sexual appetites by supporting the porn industry and doing it quickly.

Certainly makes the bailout for the auto industry look a bit better...even if people don't really need cars.

That's why it's in no fear of collapse. Sure, a few publications might go under, and a few porn stars might need to start serving you in Starbucks, but is that a bad thing? Imagine being served by Jenna Jameson! She'd make tons in tips!

Well, I was thinking more in terms of the US taxpayer, and even better the religious right taxpayers being dinged for another 5 billion, but your idea is a bonus, certainly.

And now that you've got me thinking in another direction, just think of the benefits to the environment! The improvement in air quality alone would offset the increase in latex in the landfills. Not sure if the auto bailout should still be continued though.

That Larry, always thinking of others. Man's a saint.

Imagine being served by Jenna Jameson!
Had to ask myself. "Who is Jenna Jameson?" and this is what I found ...

... an American pornographic actress and entrepreneur who has been called the world's most famous porn star and "The Queen of Porn". She started acting in erotic films in 1993 after having worked as a stripper and glamour model. By 1996, she had won the three top newcomer awards from pornographic film industry organizations. She has since won more than 20 adult film awards, and has been inducted into both the X-Rated Critics Organization (XRCO) and Adult Video News (AVN) Halls of Fame.


Well ... at least we can say scorpiomover has good taste ... IN PORN ....

Sure ... why not bail out the porn industry too? Everybody else has got their hand in the pot ...

Larry Flint or Larry Flynt? is that one in the movie "The People vs. Larry Flynt"?

i think someone made up that claim for being sarcastic. really if the government can bail out failed automakers, then why not the failed porn industry.... after all they are a part of us economy. isn't that all about the things like equal rights? jobless workers for those automakers vs jobless sex workers for ...

man, things really getting complicated..

If the links don't work then just Google Flynt bailout and you'll get there.
