Mitt Gone Wild! Criticized For Hardcore Hotel Porn
Posted by Michael Link on July 6, 2007 at 10:38 AM
Mitt Romney, pandering for the support of groups like the Family Research Council, famously blamed pornography for the tragic shooting at Virginia Tech. The Virginia Tech shooter, Romney said, "had drunk from the cesspool" of pornography.
But apparently the rhetoric didn't work, and now he's being criticized for not attempting to end hardcore hotel movie offerings during his time on the Marriott board. Industrywide, estimates for hotel profit from pornography go up to $500 million.
Knowing Romney's love of excuses, maybe he can try this one that a Marriott spokesman gave a few years back: "You're asking me if nudity is involved? I'm not a critic so it's not like I can tell you piece by piece what's going on."
Or maybe he can just say he installed a special shield to protect hotel-goers from the pornography on their television screens.
Maybe that excuse is next, but right now he's simply clamming up and hoping it will go away. It looks like the hypocrisy will just be too much for this to simply go without notice.

Hillary served for six years on the board of Wal-Mart. And, don't forget Mrs Obama's connection. Let's not push the hypocrisy button too hard.

...is he refering to Bill O'slap-the-monkey with female co-workers on prank phone calls?

Oh, let's do push their buttons. It seems to make them jump.

Oh, PLEEEEZE. That "Clinton did it too" crapola was old years ago. Hillary was on the Wal-Mart Board in the Sam Walton days, when the Company strove to use AMERICAN made products, and wasn't a slave wage neighborhood killer like his kids turned it into.
Michelle Obama was on a Board of a Company that supplied pickles TO Wal-Mart, and had NO control over what the Wal-Mart Board does.

Mittster the Muttster WAS in charge of the Board of Marriot and had FINAL SAY in EVERY decision made.
Also he's honing his hypocrite skills by pandering to the Fundie Prude crowd.
These Pugs are just tiresome.

Talking about pushing buttons? I don't condone what this article is even about. Matter afact, I did not even read it, I just saw the subject about hard core Porn, so I just had to respond.
The Democratic Party has long been an advocate of Gay Marriage and all of that jazz, yet you condemn hardcore porn. I think Gay Marriage and all of that is about as hard core as SM and BD. Of course that is my opinion and not yours. so I must say you're message to me is hypocritical. You condemn a man for watching someone get it on on a video, but hou condone a two men actually doing the 69, and base part of your political agenda on it. Yes you do, because what else are two gay men going to do beside one behind the other?
Trying to figure that one out.
