This past week there were two adult novelty shows back to back. This week we present interviews from the first one, called the Adult Novelty Manufacturers Expo Founder Show.  It featured some of the biggest manufacturer’s in the industry- California Exotic Novelties • Classic Erotica • Doc Johnson •  Golden Triangle • The Kama Sutra Company • Lady Calston • Lover's Choice Inc. • Nasstoys • Pipedream Products • Sportsheets International • Topco Sales • and others. This was an opportunity for them to display their latest wares to the buyers- so for those of you who took a few moments of valuable time away from the much needed sales part, thanks for talking to me. We Talk with Golden Triangle, Topco, and out good friends at Sportsheets. We also do our political news update with the latest on C Street as a breeding ground for infidelity, possible porn on Air Force One, why the RNC was offering sex products on their site, and why even Congressman can get kicked out of the pro-life movement for supporting contraception.

Politics

C Street, the mysterious and secretive band of Christian brothers in high places has been in the news, something they traditionally try and avoid. It’s a mansion in Washington D.C. that provides low cost housing to Christian Congress members. It is run by a fundamentalist charismatic leader who believes in transforming the United States into a theocracy. They call themselves the Family. And strangely, it also seems to be a breeding ground for adultery. C Street members South Carolina Gov. Mark Sanford and Nevada Senator John Ensign have both been revealed to have had affairs under strange tabloidal circumstances. Now there is another. Former U.S. Rep. and C Street member Chip Pickering is being sued by his wife for divorce over his affair. Pickering, who left Congress in January to become a lobbyist, was living at C Street while he was carrying on his affair. One of the most conservative members of Congress, you might remember him from the film Borat, where Pickering attended a Pentecostal meeting where the congregation cheers the anti-evolution rhetoric. And like his other fellow C Street adulterers, he believes in the Biblical admonition to be fruitful and multiply by using his wife as a baby factory, producing five boys, beating Sanford whose wife only produced four boys. So, you might ask, is there something in the water at C Street? Or is it just the bachelor life there where Congress members leave their wives at home and shack up in an opulent male only bachelor pad with the full knowledge that whatever they do, God will forgive them, even if in the case of Pickering, his wife won’t.

Was there porn on Air Force One? Gay porn at that. It sort of looked like it in a photo shot aboard the plane where we see a television screen in the background with three apparently naked men around a waterfall. There was a lot of speculation as to what the scene could possibly be from. Turns out it was Planet of the Apes.

One area where Obama has so exceeded the Republicans is in the use of the Internet. They still so don’t understand it. The Republican National Committee put up a so-called game on their site called Obama card. The idea was to try and spend 3.4 trillion dollars that Obama requested in his budget to show how much money that was. Why having an individual try and spend that amount of money when it is intended for a nation of over 300 million people does not really make any sense to me- especially when it only allows you to buy consumer goods and not things like F-22s and highways. The game was yanked down when the controversy erupted, so I am not completely sure how it worked, but it did work to make them look foolish. Seems like some of the items you could purchase were not things the RNC really wanted on their site. Books like “The Jews and Their Lies” and “The Latino Threat”. They set it up like a fake store where you could search for products. Type in gay and that word was banned, but the search word homosexual brought up a lot of interesting pictures and products. As did the words bondage, anal and escorts. The word vagina was banned, but not clitoris, I’m guessing because they never heard of it. Is this the worst naught word filter ever?  RNC spokeswoman Gail Gitcho said the website pulled its inventory from Amazon.com, but developers didn’t realize that Amazon stocked potentially offensive items. I’m guessing because, what the developers have never actually used Amazon or the Internet.

The Bush administration pushed the notion that health care providers, including pharmacists, could use their consciences to pick and chose what services they chose to provide. The real push was to allow pharmacists to choose whether they wanted to provide birth control and emergency contraception. It’s a crazy notion. Should we allow Scientologist pharmacists to refuse to dispense anti-psychotic drugs because they don’t believe in them? Finally a court has agreed that this is crazy. Two Washington pharmacists' filed a lawsuit claiming that their religious beliefs should allow them to refuse to stock and provide emergency contraception to their customers The 9th Circuit appeals court ruled that personal convictions don't supersede a patient's right to timely medication. The court said "Any refusal to dispense -- regardless of whether it is motivated by religion, morals, conscience, ethics, discriminatory prejudices, or personal distaste for a patient -- violates the rules."

U.S. Rep. Tim Ryan (D-OH) was removed from the Democrats For Life of America's advisory board. Why? Because he supports contraception, something used by 98 percent of American women at some point in their lives. Said Ryan “"We're working in Congress with groups that agree with preventative options while [the DFLA] is getting left behind. I can't figure out for the life of me how to stop pregnancies without contraception. Don't be mad at me for wanting to solve the problem."  But mad at him they are. "DFLA gave Congressman Ryan ample opportunities to prove he's committed to protecting life, but he has turned his back on the community at every turn," said Kristen Day, the Washington, D.C.-based pro-life organization's executive director. He turned his back on them because he wanted to promote contraception, the most effective way to reduce the need for abortions other than never having sex. These groups might better be called pro-mandatory pregnancy rather than pro-life. And Democrats for Life of America? Does that mean they only support life in America? Or is it Democrats for Life- of America, as if the Democratic party has affiliates in other countries. Or are they just life-long Democrats. Their name makes as much sense as their politics.

Going further down the path of enforcing mandatory pregnancy, Colorado anti-choice activists are pushing yet again for a radical personhood initiative for the 2010 ballot, even after badly losing in last years election with a similar initiative. It s backed by Denver-based Personhood USA, which is pushing for similar initiatives in 17 states. The idea is to define personhood as beginning at the moment of conception. At that point, anything that interferes with that would be murder, including birth control. Yes, I know there is a difference between birth control and abortion, but that is a scientific distinction lost on the anti-choice crowd. They also want to expand it to support keeping people alive who are in persistent vegetative states, like Terry Schiavo whom they advocated on behalf of,, even when such an existence is expressly against their wishes.  They want to put an end to end of life and death with dignity initiatives. Personhood USA apparently believe that being a person is about suffering, and they want to help inflict as much of that as possible.
