Alberto Gonzales hates freedom
That is if you consider pornography freedom, which most people do. The Washington Post reported today that the FBI is launching a "porn squad" to enforce Federal Anti-Obscenity laws (sorry pervs, the FBI is only recruiting current employees). According to the article, the new squad will divert eight agents, a supervisor and assorted support staff to gather evidence against "manufacturers and purveyors" of pornography -- not the kind exploiting children, but the kind that depicts, and is marketed to, consenting adults.
(How can a man with a mustache like that be anti-porn?)
You know Gonzales' "top priority" of curbing pornography lacks logic when an unnamed FBI agent said "I guess this means we've won the war on terror." Really, who cares that our troops in Iraq don't have armored vehicles and Osama Bin Laden is vacationing in Pakistan? We will all be able to sleep at night knowing that our tax dollars are being invested in the irradication of pornography involving bestiality, urination, defecation, as well as sadistic and masochistic behavior. Well, except for those poor souls who can only fall asleep after watching a dog and a chick, and for them, may God have mercy on their souls.

I read your article on "Let me be the judge of my own good" and thought you'd be interested in the government's statistics on crime and the impact on porn. The data shows a drop in crimes as porn availability increased from the 70s, where there were no VCRs or an internet to bring porn readily into the average home, and the 00s where anybody can find adult entertainment in the comforts of their home.

You'd think that the Bush administration would need solid justification to start a war on porn.
Oh, wait a minute...silly me...I forgot about the war in Iraq.
Why isn't he trying to get rid of gay porn or child porn? Thats the worse of it. None of the other shit really bothers me.
