And I know I keep repeating myself, but Obama disbanded the obscenity task force and there have been no new inspections since he has been in office. He got government out of the way.

So maybe I am just selfish voting for the guy who has a chance to be reelected? It's great and all trying to get Johnson's 5% of the vote (I hope he gets it) but are you going to close your biz down for 4 years till the next election? I know you've done we'll over the years but starting an energy related business is big money way out of the reach of most people. So if you can start a related biz then to take advantage of it you've got to be a transient energy worker that moves job to job.

Also minte if I was in your position I'd probably vote for Romney too. You've moved on from adult and sounds like you make a good deal of money. I don't understand why someone making $30k a year would but sure high six to seven figures its understandable. I'd just cringe a bit inside placing my vote imagining what social policies from the 1700s he will try to bring back
The way I see it is that politicians have this need to make certain, people know where they stand on too many issues. Romney would like Roe V Wade overturned. That's never going to happen. The supreme court has already ruled.

Porn, Mr.Hefner has spent his life fighting the good fight over what is obscenity. At the end of the day, it's the local community that decides who to go after. Some people in this industry have painted big circles on their chest. No one should be surprised when state or feds take a shot. We have been hearing the antiporn message for decades. We will hear it for decades to come.

Relentless made a great post the other day abouit the war on drugs. I am surprised at Obama's position. Again, now a lot of states are legalizing it for *medicinal* use.

What I believe is that this administration has drawn a line in the sand and they want the feds to be in charge of everything. And it's going to fail. States and local communities is where we should be dealing with social issues.
