[HELLRAISER]

Damn...although I'm not Republican, I was hoping Stormy Daniels would run for Senate

"I am not running for the US Senate because I am an adult entertainment star. I am not running for the US Senate for the same reason that so many dedicated patriots do not run — I can’t afford it. On this day in particular, we should all take time to reflect on the loss to our country that comes from the sad fact that those who may truly desire to contribute to our society are barred by those who only seek to unjustly profit off it.”

Ain't that the truth. Thats why I'm irritated at this so called "democracy". Rather than having politicians that represent the people we have corporate-owned shills. That goes for both parties. Stormy has a valid point. I would have loved a porn star as a senator. It's exactly the progress that this country needs.

^ that statement she made me jerk a tear because what she said was heartfelt and very true

 

[~~whimsy~~]

She was running as a Republican?

She was running as a publicity stunt. No person in their right fucking mind would vote for a goddamn porn star to be a United States Senator.

And there is the catch. So she had the potential to get at least 40% of the vote most anywhere in the U.S. based on that condition.

BTW, is she still fighting those domestic violence charges, or has that blown over now?

Charges were dropped last year.

I woulda voted for her, just to fuck with the system, and also because she'd have nude flyers all over the place. Boner happy!

Why not? Based on that little quoted blurb above she expresses herself with more sense and clarity than the president clown we somehow elected twice from 2000-2008 :dunno:

You have to admit she sounds more intelligent than Sarah Palin.

I don't think so. There was disenchantment with the front runner in her party, and she was asked to consider running. It seems she made a reasonable look into what would be necessary to win, and found she could not do it. She expresses herself articulately, and based on her issues I can't help thinking, maybe she should consider being in the other party.

In any case big thumbs up for caring and making the effort! :thumbsup:

Didn't Ronald Reagan do some porn back in the 1950s?

 

[D-rock]

If she was serious she should have taken an extra two seconds to think before she assaulted her significant other. Even if she would have went on and somehow become a viable candidate that would have come back to haunt her, and it was a pretty stupid thing to do in her circumstance.

People voted for Mary Carey for Govenor of California. Of course, everyone in California is legally retarded, but still.

 

[stormydaniels]

Hey D-Rock! I didn't assault anyone...charges weren't "dropped"...they were never filed which is a huge difference. This means nothing ever happened. It is sad that someone can be wrongly accused of something and the media will take it and run because it is sensational. The repercussions of this lie and following horrible journalism have been tremendous for me.

Actually, he did: there were some scenes from Bedtime for Bonzo that were (thankfully) left on the cutting room floor.

^ lmao

That was just a vicious lie. Bonzo was just helping Reagan learn his lines. :1orglaugh

Personally I think she would not have won anyway. but this would have been an important landmark i the history of us politics.
