You're still focused on your little porn crusade but in the meantime your state is taking a dump thanks to your Canadian socialist Governor.

Michigan should probably go into the porn business to help their economy ROFL

“Michigan should probably go into the porn business to help their economy ROFL.”

That’s good, EEE. And after Mitt drops out of the prez race, we could hire him to run it, since he grew up here.

You’re certainly right about our socialist governor — whose record on social issues is pretty much identical to what Mitt’s was before he morphed two years ago into a hardcore “social conservative.”

I am saddened that now you will be personally attacked. Peace be with you.

Now I’m giving you the benefit of the doubt that you simply overlooked the reverse correlation, with enough generosity not to call you a liar just because you did.

I appreciate that. I didn't overlook anything. And as you have explained it, I'll go back to my alternative, that the speaker doesn't understand the definition of 100% correlation. For that to be the case, every possessor of pornography would have to have molested a child, and every child molester would have to possess pornography.

Every child molestor has probably eaten pizza, too, but you can't say those are 100 percent correlated.

I see this thread is still going. What makes Gov. Willard Romney worse than a Democrat? I don’t get it, FRiend. You seem to be a one-note choir, despite some of our protestations of pragmatism. Do you have Board of Directors’ experience?

What is AFA-Michigan’s dream candidate?

Let’s use smaller words, Liberty.

“Law guys say 100% of thugs they get for sex crime with kids uses porn.”

There, no words more than five letters in that sentence. Didn’t any big ones like “correlation.”

Now, is the factual content of the sentence clear?

Yes, it is clear. It is also correct (I assume) and it clearly wasn't before.

Please don't talk down to me when it is you who misspoke.

I don’t have TV in my home. I have a television to watch movies on and help with tutorials for the kids’ home schooling. That’s it. The movies are either G or PG only. My wife and I were too poor to afford a television when we were first married and just never desired television programming thereafter. It isn’t so much a crusade as that we have better things to do with our time.

You still have a computer and other election communications so your dollars are still in someway supporting the opposition.

2 Nephi 2:11, There is opposition in all things...

We are to be tried in all things it is up to us and all God children to choose wisely, not to police the world!

You computer is a package deal you have good things on it and you have others things on it that that the Lord has council us on, if we do away cable TV it is only proper that the computer and Internet be done away with including phones because can get porn on cell phones and sex talk on the land phone!

This whole thing is much to do about nothing accept to advertise to those who are not aware it’s available.

Even if the Cable removed from the Hotel, there still is the internet, and phone in the Hotel.

Real change takes place when we as a people change our hearts and priorities not by railing and demanding, that is not the Lord’s way!

Yes porn is bad, however, I don’t think the Federal Government should be in the business of telling people what they can watch in the privacy of their own homes or hotel rooms.. If we really want to get rid porn, we should get rid of it in an educational matter....

You are right today our education system has done away with character building and replaced it with everything is relative.

He won't answer.

He has spent hours on this and other threads trashing Romney. But he says it's not because he's trying to squeeze money out of Romney, he says he's got no problem with Romney's Mormonism (recounting having worked for LDS candidates as a political consultant and campaign manager), and it ruffled his feathers when I suggested his obsession with this controversy might be because he is acting professionally on behalf of another Presidential candidate. However, he hasn't yet outrightly denied that allegation, he just chastised me for making it.

It's a legit question. AFA-M has been pounding the angle that if Romney won't repent for his alleged sins when he was a Marriott board member, he can't be trusted to enforce obscenity laws as President. If that's such an important issue that it's worth decimating Mitt, I wanna know which GOP candidates AFA-M thinks WILL pledge to crack down on porn to his satisfaction, and the basis for his belief that they will.

But -- if patterns continue -- he won't answer the question, but he will post an indignant reply about having been asked.

I’m just that much less intelligent even contributing to that stupid thread. Bluenoses are not as Conservative, nor as influential, as they think.

Thanks for the kind, realistic words. They can be in short supply around here at times.

I agree, this is much ado about nothing. The fact is that all hotels do this.

Yes, lets ask Mariott and the others to stop. I don’t like it either, but I guarantee you that we’re wasting our time on this sort of campaign.

And if you want to “demand answers” from Romney you’ll be shooting down a good candidate for no good reason.

The search for the perfect morally pure conservative will sink us....
