Good news consumers your government is helping to fund pornograhic endevors so that you can continue with your way of life.



"Stimulus" funds awarded to the National Endowment for the Arts may be being used to produce pornographic material.

The NEA was allotted $80 million out of the $787-billion stimulus bill approved earlier this year by Congress and President Obama.

Alliance Defense Fund special counsel Pat Trueman shares what he found upon close examination of the NEA's expenditures.

"The National Endowment for the Arts is using money from the stimulus bill, which was supposed to create economic activity, for the production of pornography," he states. "They've specifically given grants to companies that they know produce pornography -- primarily homosexual pornography."

Among the recipients of federal stimulus money, according to a Fox News report:

• Frameline, a "gay and lesbian" film house which recently screened Thundercrack, which is described as "the world's only underground kinky art porno horror film, complete with four men, three women, and a gorilla." ($50,000 grant)

• San Francisco-based CounterPULSE, a group that produces the weekly "Perverts Put Out" -- a performance that invites guests to "join your fellow pervs for some explicit, twisted fun." ($25,000 grant)

• "The Symmetry Project" -- a dance piece that Fox News says "amounts to two people writhing naked on the floor, a government-funded tango in the altogether." ($25,000 grant)

Have a feeling this might be a lively thread

In real-life though, most of us (if we hear about this sort of rubbish at all) keep on moving, working, paying the bills, raising our kids, being good neighbours and citizens

Most of us believe that these 'insults-purporting-to-be-'art' involve only a few head-cases and sicko politician-supporters

'We' (most of us) don't attend such events or patronise galleries/theatres which feature them

That's how they get away with it, with degrading society inch by sordid inch

For a while, I'd 'had enough', after wasting time at the 'art' gallery funded by my council-rates and taxes. I made it a point to express my opinions (briefly, civilly) in the Visitors' Book. This occurred after the local-council wasted my money on a series of old bicycle seats coarsely adorned with 'found objects', primarily magpie feathers from the local park, which had been produced by someone who decided they were 'an artist'

Well, after I said my little piece in the gallery Visitors' Book a couple of times, I was basically monstered by a gang from Friends of the Gallery. They were dripping with Avon perfume and hair-spray and adorned in a hideous selection of lurid polyesters and plastic beads. They 'expunged' my very mild comments from the Visitors' Book

I entered some heated communication with the local Council as result. Used my vote as a weapon. Amazing how the power-drunk suddenly switch-tack when confronted by the power-of-the-vote. It's really something to see

So those who don't feel a lump of human excreta on a stick or naked lesbians wrestling in jelly with gorillas exemplifies 'art' --- use your power of the vote

Yeah pornography is good for Pedophiles because it increases the chances of little girls becoming mature and having sex with old men, this is already happening everywhere in NZ, but behind the curtains. You can find 12 year olds having sex with 35, no one will know at the end of the day.

The law can't stop it, no one can, the culture is moving to the wrong direction and will end up in a collapse of a huge empire.

In that case I better start seeing some high-end porn with million dollar budgets about lesbian cyborgs from the future sent to kill John Connor.

Brings new meaning to trickle down economics

Alright, our government is NOW trying to takeover the porn industry with our tax dollars.


My God, I will be adding your thread to my thread on the stimulus money going to China.

S&F

What next? The illegal drug trade will get stimulus money? Oh, the government already runs that.

How ironic, stimulus leads to porn.

And I'm almost certain Bawney Fwank is making his own videos as well.

Seriosly this so HARD to believe!!!!!!!!

OK, I have to weigh in here, because the money is NOT going to support "porn." These non profits may feature some works with explicit material, but that is not all they do, nor are they featuring the material in the same light as professional porn. Go check out their websites for yourselves. You will see that these are art groups serving their communities in many ways other than the ones Fox News decided to sensationalize.

While I don't agree with the stimulus in any case I can't abide these ridiculous accusations that attack community based groups without understanding what those groups are trying to accomplish.

I can't see this as anything more than the right trying to create yet another rift with the left.

WE pay for the lunch that eveyone at the whitehouse eats, we pay for the uniforms the military wears, we pay for the bullet, missles, and toilet facilities they use..

Think about it.. we pay for everything done. either directly or indirectly. We even pay for Obama's long vacations with his kids in forign countries when he goes to speak..

Why not add porn to the list. might as well, at least it potentially could be a vid we MIGHT enjoy.. not like we get to enjoy that lunch the pre and his lackies are easting on the west porch of the white house that cost as much as a weeks worth of lunches for any one of us.

LOL.. Hope it's good porn.. but accoridng to that post above mine, the OPs, it's not the kid of movies I'd care to watch.. as usual.. a-typical.

The argument that cutting-edge art that questions social taboos is pornography in disguise has been popular with ignorant conservative bullies since at least the days of Phidias, and probably for a lot longer than that. One can easily imagine the carvers of primitive stone 'fertility symbols' having their breakfasts beaten out of them by artistically unenlightened fellow cavemen.

The Nazis, you'll recall, were particularly fond of condemning art as 'primitive', 'degenerate', 'pornographic' and, of course, 'Jewish'.

This thread demonstrates the miserable truth that some people can't help projecting the dirtiness of their own minds onto everything they see.

The Fox News claim that Perverts Put Out is funded by stimulus money is a lie.

As for the other instances of so-called 'porn' mentioned in the OP, those interested in seeing how pornographic they really are may click on the links below.

The Symmetry Project

Enjoy.

Were they ? Yeah, thanks for reminding me. I'd forgotten how good Germany was (prior to Zionist takeover) at calling a spade a spade

Yes, even if it's a jackboot.

I'm sure the likes of you can do a lot better than this. Come on, then.

Come on people, it's from Fox news so it's fair and balanced and has to be absolutely true!

So, let me get this straight - FOX news says that human sexuality is pornographic.
To me pornography is dropping bombs on innocent people in Pakistan and Afghanistan destroying their towns and ways of life.
I find dead children far more offensive than any sexual act, even "preverted" (whatever that means).
We need to stop demonizing human sexuality and start demonizing things that truly matter.

I for one would support the Department of Pornography as a useful addition to the US government. Just think of all the good paying jobs that the government could create.


Fat, old and ugly people need not apply.

Everyone loves war.

Just look at all the people who support it. It's good for the economy, creates many good paying jobs and gives people something to do.

I don't see warfare ending anytime soon.
