$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', 'P')orn kings Larry Flynt and Joe Francis are calling on the US government to revive the sex lives of Americans by providing a $5 billion bailout of the country's adult entertainment industry.

Hustler magazine publisher Flynt and Girls Gone Wild founder Francis have sent a joint request to the Government asking for the bailout to help them ride out the economic crisis, website News Blaze is reporting.

The pair said while the porn industry was still viable, the economic crunch had taken its toll.

Francis said as the government was prepared to bail out other faltering industries such as car-manufacturers, they should be willing to help the porn industry.

"Congress seems willing to help shore up our nation's most important businesses; we feel we deserve the same consideration," the statement is reported to have said.

Flynt said the downturn was having an unhealthy affect on the sexual appetites of Americans.

"People are too depressed to be sexually active," the website reported him as saying.

"This is very unhealthy as a nation. Americans can do without cars and such but they cannot do without sex."

"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," he said.

Is Larry Flynt seeking this stimulus from Obama, from the Congress, or from both simultaneously?

Report on business: Where is our bailout?

How disgusting this is. Criminals seeeking taxpayer money.

[patience]

Not much more disgusting than the other bailouts, IMHO, particularly the bankers.

You'll be seeing cash turning into white when they get a "bail out".

I heard a joke about this today that made me smile.

"Why does the Porn industry deserve a bigger bailout than the NY Times?

If you work for the Government which would you rather read?"

This topic must be exposed prior to a masive eruption which covers the entire population with it's detritus.

The one thing we must be careful of is that we use the desired routes to get relief where needed. Certainly this industry knows the many ways relief can be accomplished.

Only if we all pull together can we finally reach the desired and tranquil end-state and begin to address the lubrication needs so ernestly addressed by this forum.
