    It's in liberal states where that stuff is supported by the left.

    Oh, I thought you and I were having a 'who can write the most ridiculous assertion' contest.

    No, BP, liberals are not in favor of child porn. Your little friends are wrong about that.

    Well, you are right and I am wrong. What I wanted to get across is that it is a fact that some liberal view points are that freedom of speech can extend to some issues of child porn. Left wing groups like Free Speech Coalition (and others) lobby government and bring lawsuits to protect some areas of porn as freedom of speech. I did not mean to say that child porn in & of itself was supported by democrats in general. So if I came across that way, it was not what I meant.

    I googled the Free Speech Coalition. By their own statement, "The Free Speech Coalition is the trade association for the adult entertainment industry. Our members consist of a broad range of adult businesses from producers and webmasters to manufacturers, retailers and many, many more."

    That doesn't strike me as any more left-wing than any other business lobbying group.

    And the Christian Coalition isn't a group that supports the right, either.

    Hmm. Interesting analogy, but you haven't explained why you think the porn industry leans left-wing. If anything it seems to me they'd favor libertarians. Ron Paul would totally be on their side.

    I wonder how the Christian Coalition feels about being compared to a porn-industry lobbying group. :)

    This response reminds me of one of my favorite responses i heard my dads cousin say during one of our family reunions.

    my sister, who is quite a blowhard, was talking about something she knew nothing about. So he goes "so, whats your opinion on the trade tariffs and their impact on the overall Keynesian economic tax system?"

    After my sister gave a blank stare, he responded with "ooh, sorry. I thought you wanted to talk about shit you know nothing about".

    The democrats used to be the party of religious rights.

    At least in the south.

    wasn't that around the time the South, in a sense, switched to Republican dominated from Democrat dominated?

    or am I remembering Blue Harvest wrong?

    No, the South switched from Democrat to Republican in the 50s and especially in the 60s, when the civil rights act was passed.

    I sure didn't get it. Now that I've done a bit of googling, I get it. And my life is much the richer for it, I assure you.
