Larry Flynt Wants Government Bailout for Porn

Porn baron Larry Flynt is seeking a $5 billion bailout from Washington to rejuvenate the industry, which he says is suffering because of the economic downturn.

The Hustler magazine founder has teamed up with fellow adult entertainment mogul Joe Francis, creator of the Girls Gone Wild video series, to approach Congress for the same kind of financial assistance recently approved for car manufacturers.

The pair have asked the 111th Congress, which convened on Tuesday with the economy at the top of its agenda, “to rejuvenate the sexual appetite of America” with a bailout.

“Congress seems willing to help shore up our nation’s most important businesses, (and) we feel we deserve the same consideration,” Francis said in a statement

Flynt asking Congress for subsidies is only fitting, I guess, since I would imagine they are among his best customers!

So far, the only response from Congress is:

I gave at the office!

Heh.

“to rejuvenate the sexual appetite of America”

Now that’s ‘Chutzpah’.

I saw Larry Flynt in Vegas one time. He was riding in a gold plated wheel chair with two babes at his side. Some big dude who looked like a mafia thug was pushing the chair. The whole scene was entertaining in itself.

Maybe if Flynt took his case to the Clinton Presidential Library and Massage Parlor, he and Bill could join forces?

I think many in Congress have confused screwing the taxpayers with support of the porn industry.

Glenn Beck did part of his show yesterday and had to use the delay button on himself as he was laughing at all the innuendos comparing this to other bailouts.
