People who work in the porn industry who call themselves conservatives. How fucking nuts is that.

You also fall into the trap of confusing the matters. There is nothing at all wrong with being conservative. Conservatives and porn can indeed go hand in hand. Problem is your lumping in conservatives with the label of republicans. Conservatives have not ruled that party since pre Reagan days, and what you currently see is a party of the far right supported by even farther right religious groups.
It is also very easy to be both conservative and liberal at the same time, hell even while being an independent to boot. I personally find myself in this camp, one that is usually ignored for the most part as well. It is much easier to get the far right or left all worked up and often they typically are the most vocal.
