Hillary and Porn

Hillary and Porn By Sarah Rode June 13, 2007

In Hillary Clinton’s America, pornography would be legal, accessible and protected. That’s the way it was while her husband was president, according to a woman who would know.

Jenna Jameson is a multi-millionaire feminist businesswoman who has endorsed Hillary because under the Clinton administration her industry flourished. She is very critical of President Bush because his administration has not been kind to her line of work — the production and sale of pornography. Despite branching out into some mainstream projects, Miss Jameson is still considered one of the most famous porn stars around. She said in a recent interview, “The Clinton administration was the best years for the adult industry, and I wish that Clinton would run again.” I suppose she would know.

President Bush has been routinely critiqued for not doing enough to crack down on obscenity. According to Miss Jameson, however, it has been an uphill battle for her pornographic business:

When Republicans are in office, the problem is, a lot of times they try to put their crosshairs on the adult industry, to make a point. I look forward to another Democrat being in office. It just makes the climate so much better for us … and I think that getting Bush out of office is the most important thing right now.

If Attorney General Gonzales’ lenient policies have been harsh on the adult industry, one can only imagine how tolerant Hillary Clinton’s administration would be of spreading pornography throughout our country.

Former President Clinton ignored the issue of obscenity, and it is safe to assume that Senator Clinton would do the same. According to an article in the Baltimore Sun, “Obscenity cases came to a standstill under Janet Reno, President Bill Clinton's attorney general … The ensuing years saw an explosion of porn, so much so that critics say that Americans’ tolerance for sexually explicit material rivals that of Europeans.”

Fortunately, under the Bush administration, Attorney General John Ashcroft renewed the fight against obscenity, making the prosecution of obscenity a priority under his leadership. He stated in a speech in 2002, “Obscenity invades our homes persistently through the mail, telephone, VCR, cable TV and now the Internet. This multimillion dollar industry has strewn its victims from coast to coast.” Although he fought against the proliferation of pornography in America, his successor has been silent on the issue, just like Clinton’s attorney general.

It is unfortunate and inconsistent that Hillary and her “feminist” endorsers not only tolerate but also promote pornography. If they were true feminists, they would reject the objectification of women. It is interesting that in their fight to liberate women, they have instead endorsed the image of women as sexual objects. Pornography exploits women’s sexuality for money. That’s liberating?

I’ve watched porn, and usually their butts just have pimples.

Apparently, you don't read braille! :)

“Or, allowed to go to school!”

LOL I keep doing things like that when I respond during the day. No time to proof, only time to respond!

If that ever happens a large percentage of geeks will die of starvation and/or dehydration.

And the undertaker will have a very difficult time getting that smile off their faces for the open-casket funeral!

“Jenna was married, but that’s over.”

Oh I find that hard to believe. They seemed so HAPPY together!!

“I believe she’s currently dating Ultimate Fighter Tito Ortiz.”

Yikes!

Hillary and Porn

two words that should never be entered into a google search

Understated. Vastly. :)

Sooner or later, Hillary would get around to taxing the crap out of the porn industry too, and they'd turn on her.

Actually, I think they just want our money.

I think that there's money - real money - to be made in the adult entertainment business. Spending an hour in any strip club will prove that out. Whatever cash guys come in with, will get left there. And if they brought an ATM card, look out.

I think that most of the money winds up in temporary flash (cars, jewelery) or (more often than not) just goes up the girl's noses. Every (non-sexual) description I've seen of Jenna describes her as a "Good Businesswoman" - I guess she had the sense to invest her money, rather than blow it.

But I agree with most on this thread, I don't understand what people see in her. Plastic Chicks don't turn me on.

She’s been with Tito for about a year, unless they’ve recently ended things. Actually, it was on one of the Ultimate Fighting pay-per-views last year when I first noticed how much surgery she’d had done to her face. It’s not good.

Yeah, it's not good. Not good at all.

You are correct that the porn industry is the internet’s dirty little secret.

I wouldn't exactly consider it a secret - there cannot be many people left who don't understand how much internet time is devoted to porn.

Heck, at this point it's an old joke.

The main point you two are making is well taken, though. People like porn, and it has been part of human culture since time immemorial. That won't ever change.

Porn is the one area when otherwise-conservative people suddenly mutate into huge nanny-staters, demanding that the government save them from themselves (and from the free market).

Well, apparently she at least has her business savvy to fall back on. That’s more than you can say for most old porn stars.

Oh. And Tito.

Do you really think Jenna Jameson is doing what she’s doing to “get your kids” into the gay lifestyle?

That just seems, I don’t know.. far fetched.

As far as Will & Grace, that show had hilariously funny moments.

Queer Eye.. well, I can’t explain the success of that show. I doubt many kids found it so cool though.

I agree - the first two seasons were especially hysterical. However, I lost complete and total interest in that show sometime in 2000.

Just a tad. Not everything has a political angle . . .
