Hugh Hefner warns of GOP ‘war on sex’
The Hill ^ | 4/24/12 | Alicia M. Cohn

Posted on 04/24/2012 4:45:28 PM PDT by ColdOne

Hugh Hefner in an editorial for the May issue of Playboy magazine slammed the GOP presidential field as "repressed conservatives" who are "pounding on America's bedroom door."

Hefner warned readers of his empire’s flagship magazine that members of the Republican Party are waging a “war on sex.”

The phrase — which serves as the title of the editorial — is a new spin on a raging political battle over contraception and federal funding for Planned Parenthood that Democrats have called the “war on women.” But Hefner makes an argument some Democrats have rejected by returning the fraught debate to the issue of “sexual liberation.” Many Democrats have argued that contraception is an element of women’s healthcare, rebuffing Republicans who bring up sexual behavior.

Many of the Republican presidential candidates, including those that have dropped out of the 2012 race, opposed the White House’s mandate earlier this year for employers to include contraception as part of employee insurance coverage without charging a co-pay, and have also proposed defunding Planned Parenthood. Hefner calls out Mitt Romney, Rick Santorum and Ron Paul in his article as the worst offenders.

His former secretary, Bobbie Arnstein, was found dead in a Chicago hotel room after an overdose of drugs in January 1975. Hefner called a press conference to allege that she had been driven to suicide by narcotics agents and federal officers. Hefner further claimed the government was out to get him because of Playboy’s philosophy and its advocacy of more liberal drug laws.

In 1971, he acknowledged that he experimented in bisexuality.

From what i have read in the past, Hefner donates a lot to feminist causes, which is why he gets a pass from the hatchet-jawed harpies of the left. He’s no friend of men, that’s for sure.

This is why "I only read Playboy for the articles" is an old joke.

Really - who could read this load of BS and find it even remotely believable?

Don Knotts portrayed Hugh Hefner is an old comedy called The Love God, which is pretty funny. However, to his dying day, Knotts tried to preserve his real life dignity. Hefner, on the other hand, has for decades come across as a decaying, diseased, corrupt old pervert, overdue for his meeting with his pallbearers.
