Porn is not illegal. Obscenity is. Taxing porn will not make those who want to prosecute what they deem to be obscene go away. No good can come of it.

If true liberals rubbed a magic lamp and got a genie wish, we would have government issued boxes to access the internet and taxed per usage with some sort of timesharing clock. They would explain it as helping the public by giving everyone equal access. |

The republicans have dominated the south ever since LBJ pushed through the civil rights act in the 60's, and that's a FACT. LBJ is on record as saying that he cost his party the south for at least a generation. WHITE southerners tend to vote republican while black southerners tend to vote Democrat. |
12clicks is always right. When will you learn that?

50 and 12 clicks was right :)

1. The CDA is not dead. The parts relating to obscenity were not changed by the Supreme Court, and indeed, were upheld by a 3 judge panel in a NY Federal District Court on Monday.
2. While it might be against the rules of the card associations to use credit cards to verify age, the CDA makes use of a credit card an affirmative defense under the Act. In other words, the rules of card associations do not bind the US Congress. 3. As stated before in another post, this tax will not "legalize" porn; it is already legal for adults to view it. If porn rises to the level of being "obscene", it is not protected - and that is determined at the state and city levels as well. It also does not change the fact that California remains the only state in the US were it is legal to produce porn content. All this does is take 25% of the money away from the business. |

I didn't convince a number of my family blindly supporting the Republican party until after the first term of Bush 43 that blindly led blindly follows. Of course anyone I might have personally enlightened as to actual goings on was drowned out by the ones who were motivated to act by the TV & radio ads and crap being shoved in their hands/mailboxes declaring that the Democrats were poised to take away their Bibles and guns while forcing them to accept homosexuals and pay for the AIDS they all have and abortions. :( |

You have been corrected. Carry on. |
funny Colin, isn't it, how you claim not to be a republican but you're always defending some conservative asshat or posting something to make the dems look bad.
surprise surprise, there are exploitative democratic politicians too. We're an easy target and they need to do something to make themselves look all moral and holier than thou just like the repubs do every day of the week, every week of the year. I suppose you'd be SHOCKED if you found out that Hillary wasn't really best friends with Newt Gingrich and vice versa, right? The fact that democrats can occasionally be asshats and scrape the bottom for votes doesn't change the fact the party of fundamentalist fanatical christians, censors and bigots sits on the right side of the aisle. |

They don't spend less, they spend more. They just cut taxes to get the moron vote and leave the mess for democrats to clean up when they finally get voted out of office. |

Democrats have lost all three branches of the government and have only elected 2 presidents in the last 30+ years. One of them is remembered as the worst president ever. The other is remembered for projecting a budget surplus based on 10 more years of continued revenue from a dot.com economy. (and fucking fat interns) |
Ive been watching news reports about this and even the people who support it say it wont do enough because so many sites are from outside of America and dont have to comply.
The reports also said you cant tax 1 portion of free speech. |

It's no surprise that dems have been losing since the repubs figured out how easy it was to get votes by appealing to prejudice and fear rather than enlightened self-interest. Politicians are supposed to be leaders and thinkers. Statesmen. When you toss out any notion of ethics and fair play, as the republicans have done, it becomes much easier to brainwash a nation. |
It's also hilarious how the right wing brands everyone concerned about protecting their individual liberties as traitors to the country while the leaders you deify make deals to keep American hostageis captive overseas for political purposes, thwart the expressed will of the nation and congress in Honduras and out covert CIA operatives to get revenge on their spouses for not playing ball when they're trying to lie to the nation about WMD.
Make no mistake about it: Conservatives are traitors to this country and it's ideals. 40 years from now, after you've led us into WWIII and we've started to recover, history will judge this era more harshly than Joe McCarthy. They'll wonder what the hell we were thinking. |

Actually, the horrible economy is why carter is remembered as the worst president ever. A lot of southerners actually started voting republican during the mid-term elections in Clintons first term. |
The democrats ignorance of the country is one reason they cant win elections. I bet you guys didn't know this fact:
Politically, the South includes 13 states: Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Carolina, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas and Virginia. Together they cast 168 electoral college votes, more than three-fifths of the 270 required for election. You better bet those "jesus land" pics will help the democrats get those 3/5ths in the next election cycle. |

You can't get away with this as a liberal, and that's because we actually care whether someone's lying to us. |
The Republicans are all talk about morals.
However, the Democrats take very real action to make sure that big government sticks its nose into everything; the Democrats believe big government can solve all society's problems, and they are delighted to use our tax money trying. |
Until 1994, Democrats enjoyed majority voters in the south.
In their midterm landslide of 1994, Republicans for the first time captured the majority of House and Senate seats from the South. Republicans have increased the number of seats they hold in the 13 Southern states from 18 before Bush took office to 22. (The GOP has now won the last 10 open-seat Senate races in the South.) In the House, Republicans have stretched their advantage in the Southern states from 27 seats before Bush took office to 40 today Clinton won more than 650 counties in each of his presidential victories out of 1124 counties |

That worked well for Clinton didn't it? I love irony, Democrats told me that a president lieing under oath about molesting an intern in the oval office was OK because it was a "private matter". Those same idiot democrats demand to know the personal views of the wife of a supreme court nominee. Your party fucks you in the ass and you love it. Thats irony, but actually its the definition of ignorance on your part. |

Honestly, you're just too stupid to be interesting. Sorry. I was hoping Colin would come out to play and you're not an adequate substitute. |

I do have access to several great produce markets here and inquire regularly where individual stuff comes from and it's most often the midwest. |
They are doing their best to shut us down.
