Are Porn stars right wing?
Remember hearing once the idea that all great actors are left wing... So porn actors must be right wing correct? Anyone got some proof of their political allegiences?

Btw this is just for shits and giggles, I'm not weird, Honest!

2. Jenna Jameson sounded vaguely Democratic in her autobiography
Not that I would be caught dead reading that trash, of course. I...ummm....heard that from someone who had read it. Yeah, that's it. I heard about it from someones else. Yeah. That's the ticket!

4. Just because she says "Bush" and "Dick" a lot doesn't mean she's a DEM.

9. I occasionaly read Adult Video News.....
....which is the trade magazine of the industry. They pretty much lambaste Bush, Ashcroft, and Gonzales in every issue. They even mentioned DU last month, in regards to the Mary Carey thing. A reader was ripping her and her manager for showing up and consorting with the enemy, although the manager seemed to be saying it was all publicity and a chance to divide the party.

With the way Johnny Jesus Freak and now Alberto want to use the Patriot Act to go after obscenity cases, it would be hard to be in the industry and support Bush if you know where your bread is buttered.

11. That was me actually
That wrote that letter. I hope Mary ain't mad at me - I know she did it as a ruse.

Truth is, most of the major players and performers in the industry support dems and dem causes. Just look at Phil Harvey, owner of Adam & Eve, and head of DTK international - NPO providing condoms and family planning to the third world. Currently suing the US federal government over their family planning policies in the third world.

15. I was telling people this very thing, Mongo...
I know people who know Mary *quite* well and they were very clear to me that this was totally a means of making the GOP look bad and to get Mary's name out there.

And I think it worked on both counts.

13. You may recall (I sure do)...
that there were dueling porn stars for Bush and Kerry during the campaign. I noticed that our side had the only bigtime stars, at least in the two competing pictures that I saw.

14. Just a few examples
This info is kind of hard to find. Many people in the industry publish under pseudonums.

But here are the contributions of the owners of the BIGGEST companies in the industry during the 2004 election cycle (from fundrace.org):

Steven Hirsch - owner of Vivid pictures
John Kerry $1,500

Philip D Harvey -owner of Adam & Eve
DNC $10,000
John Kerry $2,000

steve orenstein - owner of Wicked Pictures
DNC $1,000

Larry Flynt - owner of Hustler and LFP productions
Dennis Kucinich $2,000
DNC $1,000

Who knows what they did through the Free Speech Coalition or other venues. My wife recalls reading that Larry Flynt gave the DNC 10K but maybe it was during the previous election cycle.

Steve Hirsch http://www.fundrace.org/neighbors.php?type=name&lname=h...

http://www.fundrace.org/neighbors.php?type=name&lname=hirsch&fname=steven&search=Search+by+Name


No employer info but the address is in the right spot 2nd entry on the screen

phil harvey http://www.fundrace.org/neighbors.php?type=name&lname=h...

http://www.fundrace.org/neighbors.php?type=name&lname=harvey&fname=philip&search=Search+by+Name


Harvey is now a lobbyist and a supplier of condoms to Africa. DKT is one of his companies

Steve Orenstein http://www.fundrace.org/neighbors.php?type=name&lname=o...

SBO pictures is a parent company of Wicked pictures

http://www.fundrace.org/neighbors.php?type=name&lname=orenstein&fname=steve&search=Search+by+Name


Larry Flynt http://www.fundrace.org/neighbors.php?type=name&lname=f...

http://www.fundrace.org/neighbors.php?type=name&lname=flynt&fname=larry&search=Search+by+Name


Hope the links still work. I took this from a previous post that I had saved locally.

17. Here is the honest truth.
I personally know more prostitutes, exotic dancers, porn actors and actresses, and etc that you could possibly imagine.

The only ones that are not Liberal/Progressive are totally apolitical.

19. Not Nina Hartley! Socialist all the way!
http://64.233.179.104/search?q=cache:bEkGR8sMk5QJ:film.guardian.co.uk/patterson/story/0,12830,1405380,00.html+nina+hartley+socialist&hl=en

"Survivors are still around though: hardy woodsman Ron Jeremy, the subject of his own rather diverting docu-bio not long ago, fellow progressive New Yorkers like Randy West and Herschell Savage, still getting it up after all these years. Nina Hartley, socialist, radical feminist, and proud, erm, "anal queen" is one of the smartest, nicest people you'll ever meet, and tough-chick ex-porn star Sharon Mitchell now runs a successful, judgement-withholding clinic for porn stars and their rather specific work-related ailments."
