Porn Industry seeks federal bailout

Larry Flynt is asking for a bailout.

WASHINGTON (CNN) — Another major American industry is asking for assistance as the global financial crisis continues: Hustler publisher Larry Flynt and Girls Gone Wild CEO Joe Francis said Wednesday they will request that Congress allocate $5 billion for a bailout of the adult entertainment industry.

“The take here is that everyone and their mother want to be bailed out from the banks to the big three,” said Owen Moogan, spokesman for Larry Flynt. “The porn industry has been hurt by the downturn like everyone else and they are going to ask for the $5 billion. Is it the most serious thing in the world? Is it going to make the lives of Americans better if it happens? It is not for them to determine.”

Francis said in a statement that “the US government should actively support the adult industry's survival and growth, just as it feels the need to support any other industry cherished by the American people."
“We should be delivering [the request] by the end of today to our congressmen and [Secretary of the Treasury Henry] Paulson asking for this $5 billion dollar bailout,” he told CNN Wednesday.

Flynt and Francis concede the industry itself is in no financial danger — DVD sales have slipped over the past year, but Web traffic has continued to grow.

But the industry leaders said the issue is a nation in need. "People are too depressed to be sexually active," Flynt said in the statement. "This is very unhealthy as a nation. Americans can do without cars and such but they cannot do without sex."

"With all this economic misery and people losing all that money, sex is the farthest thing from their mind. It's time for congress to rejuvenate the sexual appetite of America. The only way they can do this is by supporting the adult industry and doing it quickly."

So far, there has been no congressional reaction to the request.

People were fine, nay, relieved when the U.S. government helped bail out its troubled banks. Suspicions rose slightly when the automotive industry requested the same, leaving some of us to wonder, when will it end?

Well, the answer may or may not be the porn industry. CNN reported Wednesday that legendary porn icon Larry Flynt and Girls Gone Wild CEO Joe Francis will appeal to the U.S. government for a $5 billion bailout of the adult industry.

In a statement, Larry Flynt said that the economic downturn has been mirrored by a sexual downturn. "Americans can do without cars and such but they cannot do without sex," he said.

Godspeed, Mr. Flynt.

Larry Flynt (Hustler Corp) and Joe Francis (Girls Gone Wild) seek government bailout! Hey why not? Everyone else does? Let’s bail out all corporations and allow government control of economy! Failure is not acceptable in USSA (United Socialist States of America)!

President O’bummer (Obama) wants to control every aspect of your lives, why not your tools, shambools and choochools?! Long live socialism, please lend a hand out or a hand job to the porn industry!

Liberal Media erected President O'bummer and now President O’bummer will aid your erections! O’bummer will lend you a hand job.

There shall be no more Americans going to bed hungry or limp! Vitamin V (Viagra), free Hustler magazines and Girls Gone Wild DVDs for all!

…. And Erections for All …… :asgard:
Free at last, free at last ….. :shackled:

I have a dream …….that one day all will have Government Welfare, Healthcare, handouts and hand jobs!

I have a dream that one day all white and colored children will walk hand in hand after the liberal sex ed classes in schoolyards holding on to their tools in hand, awaiting government hand jobs and hand outs of pills, dildos, warming lotions, butt plugs and Black Jack Obama condoms! :shadesi:

I have a dream …..

God bless O’bummer (Obama) :ethiop:
God bless United Socialist States of America :fans:

Amen!
