Blogging Against Senator Sam Brownback Since March 2005
Yesterday Senator Brownback held a hearing on Capital Hill on the dangers of pornography. Salon.com has a good article describing the proceedings and I encourage you to take a look.
The main shocker from the hearing? DARE for porn. I kid you not:
To date, Brownback has put forward no specific legislation to address the problems he sees with pornography. But he mentioned several possible options, including a… federal public education campaign, along the line of anti-drug advertising, to inform Americans about the dangers of watching explicit sex.
Yeah, because that turned out so well. I’ll leave the punchlines to other bloggers, but I have to wonder what this campaign’s “egg in frying pan” commercial would look like…

Wow what a concept? I understand the child pornography angle and the human trafficaking thing. But wanking can cause you not to talk to your wife??? I wonder if Sam’s stopped talking to his wife? Someone should ask him. According to what I saw on Salon. But then again it might account for all those divorces in the red states…Porn… who knew the great reason for unhealthy marriage and btw is is straight or gay porn dividing households? I’ve met some people who are married yeah to women and they secretly love watching gay porn. This is not to insult anyone living in a red state either.
