Your (US) government dollars at work...

I hope you're not fans of Suicide Girls' website... (The link goes to their discussion board, concerning their decision to take down all BDSM-related pictures.)

<Sigh>

Edited to add this quote: "According to an electronic memo from FBI headquarters, established legal precedents indicate that conviction is most likely in cases where the content "includes bestiality, urination, defecation, as well as sadistic and masochistic behavior," from this ArsTechnica article.

Well makes perfect sense to me, Bush has already decided that Iraq should be invaded for no good reason, the search for Bin Laden doesn't need much troops anymore, but our troops should stay in a country they shouldn't have been in anyway long after they were supposed to have left.

He took I think a week to get National Guard into New Orleans, and not in enough numbers to make things better really.

He pushed to outlaw gay marriage, he made anti everybody comments, promised things that haven't happened and made the economy worse mostly.

But he's not let the terrorists make another attack, of course not sure if I am recalling them correctly, but the first world trade center attack was a car bomb in 1977, another car bomb in 1985 then the one in 2000. He didn't have to worry about another terrorist attack anyway.

At this point, I'm pretty sure the Republican Party is pushing him to do things to draw attention away from him and the party so they have a hope of getting another Republican elected president. Cause at this point, I'm thinking half the country will vote Democrat just to avoid getting another Bush. Just my opinion of course, but can't be that far off with his approval rating.

Yeah, admit it. You just wanna get paid to look at porn.

I'm not quite sure what I'm going to write yet when I write my representatives. but I urge people who are upset with the current decisions to contact their representatives and congress members. Maybe if enough of us can present a valid arguement there could be a possibility for change.

Odd, I thought if the US was to take on such laws that they'd follow Canada's lead - do fuckin' nothing. I guessed wrong.

Our congressional representatives and senators do not listen to informed arguments. They listen to VOTING BLOCKS and lobbyists.

Which is why we need to support the National Coalition for Sexual Freedom.

Oh well, he has done one thing.....a little late maybe, but....apparently he has requested The Netherlands to send experts to the US to advise how to build dykes/levees. Someone being interviewed about it last night said the US have a little different approach to it than here, 'they built their levees with the assumption they would break or be flooded every 50 years, The Netherlands built their dykes with the assumption they would break or be flooded every 10,000 years'.

Speaking of absurdities of the governement kind... Hurricane Hotline Outsourced to India

SG is basically doing the most pussy thing possible in reaction to a bad situation.

I'm wondering if/when midori et al. will be as eager to censor the pretty softcore bondage solo pics of beautybound.com

Basically, I think this is going to be carried out in a very arbitrary weird and random way.

I think, personally, that damsel-in-distress bondage is much more in danger than glamour bondage. The more clear it is that your model is enjoying it, even controlling what happens to her (self bondage) the harder it'll be for them to go after.

It's no different from being in porn now, where other than CA what you're doing essentially always skirts some form of legality...only now the ante is upped in that the feds can choose to burn your ass, not just the state.

Well *I* didn't vote for this shit.

And more governmental stupidity, this from a state senator in Alabama:

Senator says storms are punishment from God.

Well, actually, I have a friend. He's quite intelligent. But, his mind does get out there a little, at times. He said the Russians have a device that can steer huricanes.

He has said a lot of things that make me wonder about him, but then I know of some people on this site who say things that make me wonder, too.

He gave me some names to search about things. I'll see what I can find and let you know. Maybe The Ruskies are behind a lot of this crap we have been experiencing.

That is the BEST wacko conspiracy theory I've heard in a while, cool.

Your friend is only half right. The U.S. has all of the weather control satellites. I work with them every day but please o' please don't tell anyone that I told you so. The sad truth is that George Bush don't like black people. Just like Kane West said and he's a rap artist so we should all listen to him. GW had us vector in Katrina and when it became apparent that black people would survive he had us bring in Rita but it didn't give the satellites time to fully recharge so it didn't directly hit New Orleans and not with the kind of power we had hoped for.

The tsunami in Indonesia was an accident though. We were trying to take out the poor areas of Los Angeles with that one but it went terribly wrong.

Right now we are working on some good sandstorms for Iran but it looks like we'll be asked to take out the prison at Guantanamo Bay first.

Nice post, Betticus. I didn't know all of that was possible, but I have lead a sheltered life, in some ways. I roll my eyes and shake my head at some of these strange things around me. Your findings are simply astounding...as well as fasinating. Also, kind of scary, because someone could actually say that on Coast to Coast. And, just think of the people who would believe it and before long, all of it would be true. Truth just because of Coast to Coast.

Wll, my friend told me to google Dr. Turi. He seems like the new Notragamus, I guess. I didn't read too much of his stuff, though. I think he says he predicted the recent hurricanes? Coast to Coast was mentioned a lot in the links google found. I remember listening to that show at times and wondering why they let wackos like that even on the radio. Maybe it's me?

Another name he said I should google was Ed Dames. Again, Caost to Coast came up a lot. I don't know. Maybe I'll get more into it, later. Or, some of you can venture into these two names and see what you can find. My eyes just can't handle reading on a computer screen for very long, these days.

If someone finds a link to the Russians moving hurricanes around, I would like to know about it. Like I said...my friend is quite intelligent. Who knows...this could be the new nuclear weapon.

I like to watch the history channel, and I've seen some strange things that the Russians and Germans did, back in the days of WW II, etc. But, I've yet to see anything about steering hurricanes.

Maybe we should google "hurricane whisperer" ?
