GOP Platform Changed To Now Target All Forms Of Pornography
A Monday press release from faith-based advocacy group Morality in Media celebrates the Republican Party�s platform as now targeting all forms of pornography, not just illegal child pornography. This has been a cause among the Christian conservative right for some time now.
MIM says the platform�s �new language replaces previous platform wording, which only opposed child pornography.� According to the press release, the GOP�s new wording will explicitly state that �current laws on all forms of pornography and obscenity need to be vigorously enforced.�
It shouldn�t be difficult to guess who was largely responsible for this new wording: Family Research Council president Tony Perkins. MIM thanks him saying: �We are most grateful to Tony Perkins� who led the effort to get the tough new language into the platform. Without enforcement of federal obscenity laws, pornographers have had a green light to target our children and families.�
If anything, this continues the GOP�s reluctance to adopt Republican Indiana Gov. Mitch Daniels� social issues �truce.� Last week�s news that the platform continues the no-exceptions position on abortion and that the party is unwilling to consider even �civil unions� in their gay marriage platform shows that the party is still unwilling to revive the party�s �big tent� status and incorporate all facets of the right � including libertarians, social moderates, and Ron Paul fans who all don�t see these social �crusades� as an integral part of limited government.

NO CONTRACEPTION! NO JACK BOOKS! NO ABERSHUN!
When sex is outlawed, only outlaws will get any. :lol:
Jesus! If the Republicans want to do this, imagine how bad it'll be under those Big-Government Liberal Democrats!
We all had better vote for Romney to keep this country sane!
