I would approve banning Playboy...only because the girls are not nearly as pretty as the playmates of the 70s and 80s.
Heff…
C’mon man let’s have little less piercings and tattoos, less silicone, and a little more natural beauty.

Who’s the one trying to take away people’s right to by cigarettes and four-wheel-drives?

Rob: We share the same sentiments on this one. I remember when,during the first Gulf War, beer and cigarette companies wanted to send freebies to the troops. Some stuck up politicians and special interest groups wouldn’t let them do it. Why? They claimed it was an effort by the beer and cigarette industries to get soldiers hooked on their products so they would make more sales when the troops returned home. This generation of do-gooders, who have never known the stress and fear of combat, have no idea how uplifting a keg of beer or a quick smoke can be.

Good to know there is time enough to be concerned about minutia like this.

Republicans shrinking and stealing penises.
Makes the previous post clear.

For once Woof is funny!
Seriously though, it’s about time that someone shielded the soldiers eye’s from such smut. I mean after a hard day’s work dodging bullets, killing Allah’s hellspawn and having to deal with the deaths of comrades...Playboy might take their innocence!

This comes along every few years. Some numbnutted mental midget in Congress decides that they have to “protect” soldiers from blahblah, calls a committee hearing, the current head of AAFEES stands there and nods their head and makes sympathetic noises, then leans into the microphone and slowly, using tiny littles words that morons in Congress can understand, and explains that in order to prohibit the sale of blahblah it must first be prohibited throughout the entire United States.
Items can be blocked from shipment to certain regions, based on cultural and legal strictures. Prohibition of specific items is quite another matter entirely.
AAFEES is not a part of the military chain of supply, therefore the military is not “supplying” porn to anyone.
Oh, and is numbnuts mental midget planning to block soldiers from receiving subscriptions through the mail?

I will second that… I thought the reason we didn’t have beer during the first gulf war was because alcohol would offend the Saudi’s they did have R and R trips to Bahran and they had beer there…
