porn priority

Porn is a top priority for the Bush Department of Justice.

The Bush Administration is obsessed with sex. Now, the FBI is building a porn squad:

The FBI is joining the Bush administration's War on Porn. And it's looking for a few good agents.

Early last month, the bureau's Washington Field Office began recruiting for a new anti-obscenity squad. Attached to the job posting was a July 29 Electronic Communication from FBI headquarters to all 56 field offices, describing the initiative as "one of the top priorities" of Attorney General Alberto R. Gonzales and, by extension, of "the Director." That would be FBI Director Robert S. Mueller III.

Hey, it's not like they have anything else to do. And, this isn't about child porn or anything that's illegal. They are talking about "the kind that depicts, and is marketed to, consenting adults." So all you Red State guys need to know: The Bush team wants your porn.

These repugs are so sex-obsessed that they think that it should take priority over our country's safety!
And here is porn-obsessed conservative writer Ben Shapiro's take on the seriousness of this matter:

Plainly it is not governmental inefficiency these agents are worried about. They find the anti-pornography crowd disturbing because they believe that policing pornography violates fundamental rights. This has become the dominant view in our society: As long as what I do doesn't harm you personally, I have a right to do it. It's a silly view and a view rejected by law enforcement policies all over the country. Were we to truly recognize such a philosophy, we would have to legalize prostitution, drugs and suicide -- as well as the murder of homeless drifters with no family or friends. After all, if someone kills a homeless drifter, how does that affect anyone else? Consent should make no difference here -- that's an imposition of your values. Just because a murderer offends your moral sensibilities doesn't give you an excuse to impose your subjective values on a society.

Such logic means destroying human communities. It is uncivilized, in the purest sense of the word. It makes us each selfish actors. The effects of our actions on others are irrelevant. No, you can't punch me in the nose, but if you choose to perpetrate genocide, and if none of my friends or family members is thrown into a mass grave, what business of mine is it? When everyone is an island, no one is safe. Actions cease to have consequences.

Wow! That is some leap of logic!!! Because people (logically) believe that it is silly to wage a war on porn that is between consenting adults, then this will lead to murdering homeless people (I wouldn't say that that was between consenting adults!) and genocide!!!!
It is just me or is the main difference between "liberal" and "conservative" writers and commentators that the libs make sense and the conservatives babble complete nonsense based on nothing? Sure seems that way!

And Sadly No! takes a shot at this, too!
