"Did the president watch academy awards for prostitution and sodomy?"
This is what a "reporter" asked at the WH briefing, I've seen this old turkey at press briefing for quite awhile and he's always asking question which has NOTHING to do with ANYTHING, who is he?

4. Excuse me? The same Jeff Gannon who was a male prostitute and posed nude
and urinating on his website thinks "Putting icons of masculinity together in a same-sex tryst, complete with on-screen anal intercourse, crosses the line.

By JEFF GANNON " This has GOT to be a joke! This is hilarious!

2. sounds like Les Kinsolving (i think that's his name)....old dude with
whacked out hair.

Fruitcake long past his expiration date.

Chances are the presidunce was too busy prostituting and sodomizing our country to take note.

show.

5. It was-his first question was about re-arraigning the seats
see since the "old media" was no longer making money the "new media" should get the front row seats.

6. He's in mourning that the Hay's Code no longer rules the industry.
There are a LOT of people who, in effect, apply the Hay's Code as a measure of a film's excellence/acceptability. My 86-year-old mother is one of those. If sex is implied, she loves it ... with more than a trivial degree of prurient interest. If it's portrayed at all, no matter how 'artfully,' she thinks it's "dirty." If the characters use profanity (e.g. "fuck"), she condemns the movie - no matter whether those characters are prostitutes, street people, soldiers, or whatever.

I think it's remarkable that many adults love to snicker 'knowingly' but treat themselves as adolescents in terms of the 'R-rated' movies.
