"I strongly encourage and fully expect the adult entertainment industry to require the use of condoms," said Koretz, a Democrat from West Hollywood

Gee...and all this time the Leftists have been whining that only Republicans try to stick the government's nose in the bedroom...

Funny how the "mainstream" media thinks it's a "good thing" when the Democrats do something, but "unnecessarily invasive" when the Republicans do it.

This is just an excuse for the assemblymen to watch porn flicks during subcommittee meetings.

Because they make you wear a condom? You could try those little blue pills if it's that bad and you want to keep the job.

Nevada will become the new center of the adult film business, and California legislators will wonder what happened to the tax revenue.

And Willie Green will be able to post articles about the number of unemployed porn actors.

"This is just an excuse for the assemblymen to watch porn flicks during subcommittee meetings."

and it gives them an excuse to deduct their purchases as 'job related expenses'.

Esteemed Assemblyman Mr. Koretz, would you PLEASE add a rider to your bill requiring that the pornography industry use plot devices OTHER than pizza delivery guys in their product? If I hear "Miss Bunny, here's your pizza. And here's the pepperoni" one more time, I'm going to puke.

If that happens, the terrorists have won.

As a California taxpayer, I find it repulsive that the legislature in Sacramento cannot find anything more important to discuss than laws about what the porn industry stars wear or don't wear when filming.
This is about as far from an OSHA topic as any I can think of.
We are drowning in debt. We have no new power generation while the state grows by leaps and bounds.
We have no border policy which keeps out illegals and terrorists. Gangs are getting bolder and bolder each and every day. Out guns are being taken while they talk about CONDOMS! All these jerks can find to pass for a frivolous law is condoms in the porn industry?
It must be the water in Sacramento. This is the reason why Gray Davis was knocked out, and it will be the reason other "representatives" of the people are sent packing.

As a former California taxpayer I can assure you that you are better off if this is where their creative juices are being spent. Turned to an important issue this "talent" has demonstrated the capability to do real lasting damage.

Aha. The HIV/AIDS scare among "sex workers" has a newer promoter -- this Dem from West Hollywood. Who knows, but maybe the workers themelves are complaining behind the scenes about their eeeevil bosses who demand live-and-free-and-unprotected shots. The question is... will this Dem then appoint a committee (on taxpayer dollar) to monitor the flicks?
