By Chucky’s logic the regulation of pornography warrants the regulation of speech.

So, conservative opinion is akin to porn, eh?
The only tiny bit of satisfaction I’m going to get out of watching the filthy dems (spit) bring back and expand the Fairness Doctrine (an Orwellian term if I’ve ever heard one) will be from watching libs who have yapped these past eight years about Bush’s "assault on the Constitution" twist themselves into rhetorical knots defending this outright assault on free speech. Notice how Trashcan Chuckie managed to imply that this is "consistent" with conservative values: "Well! Some people don’t want to broadcast porn! Now, I agree with that, and in the interests of consistency, we’ve got to regulate what people say on the air."
That Trashcan can’t or won’t see the difference between "Debbie Does Dallas" and The Rush Limbaugh Show speaks volumes about what a totalitarian idiot he is.
"I may disagree with what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it! That is, so long as you’re fair about it. And don’t offend anybody. And... well... so long as you agree with me."
Bah. |

Actually you did miss something....add the word "conservative" to the sentance before the word speech.
Because that’s the gameplan.
Also, notice how he mentioned about printing presses not being regulated? That’s code for "We’re leaving the WaPo and NYT alone"

Among those who write here, produce one example of "anti-porn" crusading.
Just one. |

In the interest of diversity of opinion I’ll crusade for anti-porn, but in a non-coercive sort of way only.
Porn, like drugs, is very bad for you. The objectification of women can damage the ability to have a healthy relationship. Sex-work is not liberating. Paying for sex is pathetic... paying for pictures while you do yourself is even more pathetic.
Also, modesty keeps the naughty bits naughty, and that keeps things more fun.
I think that will be the slogan for my anti-porn campaign. "Keep the naughty bits naughty."

Revisit Dale’s post on going to war.
As much as I hate the thought, I WILL NOT allow my children/grandchildren to have their freedoms denied. |

The archives are open to him - I wish him luck. |

As for FCC rules... perhaps voluntary rating is a realistic possibility, but I really don’t think it’s "okay" to fail to give people warning so that they can *choose* to view (or listen to) pornography. At some point the unexpected exposure to porn can be compared to picking up an obscene phone call or having a strange man expose himself to you. These things make a person feel violated, and for good reason. Subjecting children to these sorts of sexual assault is a crime.
Being free to chose to view pornography is one thing. But people should have the right to chose NOT to view pornography... without that choice requiring them to not watch television, listen to the radio, or leave their homes because they never know when it’s going to show up. Children (particularly pubescent ones) should not find pornography thrust at them.

If anything, you guys are pro-porn. Hell, I’ve seen days where every link on Q and O went to a porn site. |

The decline of Unions is another of the unintended consequences of those "popular progressive programs".
Unions hurt themselves, when they moved from the bargaining process to the political process to achieve their ends. Every piece of legislation to provide retirement security, workplace safety, workplace rules, or ... has made the unions less useful to workers.
The more that the unions had to bargain for, the more powerful they were, because they were providing a service to workers.
The more that they used government to achieve ends, the less useful they were to workers, though the more important to the politicians.

I’d be shocked if any of the people who write for this blog are anti-porn crusaders. That’s just silly. :-)

He does this drop and post conservative bashing boilerplate because the capital D in Tom’s screen name stands for the short version of Richard.

Healthy relationship!? HA HA HA HA. Stop with the fiction . . . Paying for sex is pathetic... paying for pictures while you do yourself is even more pathetic. Men don’t pay for sex . . . they pay her to go away after sex. And masturbation is pathetic, but dang, I’m married . . . |
