78. Are you aware that you are on a DEMOCRATIC forum which has consistently opposed the Right Wing

Sat Jun 29, 2013, 03:36 PM

Jun 2013

Republicans attempts to censor Porn, anywhere? Did you think that this would have any impact on any Democrat here, whether true or not?

Did you know that Democrats generally believe that people have a right to engage in all legal activities regardless of whether the Right Wing Hypocritical Moralists think they do or not?

This would go over better on a site where attempting to use 'OMG, PORN' (never mind their own proclivity for it) would have some effect?

What utter garbage.

I've said it before and will repeat it here, even though HB Gary never got the Contract to SMEAR GREENWALD, it is obvious by the childishness of these feeble attempts to distract from the issues, that SOMEONE got that contract.

I hope they didn't pay much for it because I've never seen a smear campaign back fire so spectacularly.
