Poizner: Meg Whitman Used To Sell Porn


Last week, California Republican gubernatorial candidate Meg Whitman released an ad that called Republican opponent Steve Poizner that dreaded "L" word -- liberal. Poizner's latest web video tries to tie Whitman to another word: porn.

State Insurance Commissioner Poizner's new web video -- "Adults only" -- opens with eBay's history of selling guns, fake paintings and pornography. And then it takes on Whitman, who used to run the online auction site.

"Whitman cleaned up the site," the video's narrator says. "No more guns. No more fake paintings. But pornography? Whitman started a separate division that only sells porn."

Under Whitman's leadership the porn site became one of the largest on the internet. That's Meg Whitman. From Goldman Sachs deals to porn. It's all about the money. Meg Whitman. Bad judgment. Wrong values.

8. Exactly
meg whitman is exactly as you described - and one day that slogan will work.. - Don't vote for the fascist corporate monster...

yea pfft porn whatever whocares it gets bought and sold everywhere don't like it don't buy it - but hey if the rubes fall for it as a bad thing - i guess it's not such a bad thing in this case. what is too bad is that it's all so dirty --- i mean the politics, not the porn. :evilgrin:

13. The TV ads in Cali are getting beyond comical...
... I swear it is like watching a couple of immature kids going at each other running for the school's council.

The best is both candidates use "liberal" as a derogatory term. The GOP truly thinks people have forgotten about Bush, and his "conservative" hubris which almost sent us down the drain. They truly have no shame, lying is like second nature to them. They are true sociopaths.

16. These Rethuglicans sure know where to find porn in unlikely places.
Edited on Tue May-18-10 08:46 AM by Crowman1979
Yet I'm only trying to find kinky sex from NC-17 and Unrated mainstream movies on Netflix. Guess I'm too busy with real work or not putting in much effort in scouring through wikipedia, ebay, youtube or some other benign websites for porn. Wonder where they find the time? LOL
