Romney, Massresistance & Porn

Ms. Massresistance is off the gays (I'm sure for only for a brief time) and again attacking Mitt Romney, you remember him: the former absentee Massachusetts governor; the guy who Massresistance blames for removing them from WTTT, does the name ring a bell? Well, she is now posting about the apparent hypocrisy of Mitt being on the Marriott Board of Directors when Marriott allowed pay-per-view porn in the Marriott hotels. They want to know how much money Romney has made on hotel porn:



While Mitt Romney served on the Marriott Hotels Board of Directors for ten years in the 1990s, he benefitted financially from the chain's profiteering on hard-core pornography (available via in-room TV). If we break down Marriott profits during the period when Romney was involved, how much money did this devout Mormon make from porn purchases?


The same could be asked of Massresistance. They are the ones who put up, what they claim to be "gay porn" on their website (and repeatedly mention it in their emails) only to raise money to pay Brian Camenker and "volunteer" Amy's salaries. Likewise, they go after Romney for talking out of both sides of his mouth when they've done exactly the same:


  • They claim to have Judeo-Christian values but are left standing with the plank in their own eyes as they are trying to remove the splinter's from other's eyes, including the sin of pride;

  • They claim that they are against the "Vote On Marriage Amendment" yet at every instance A & B attack the Massachusetts legislators for not approving it. (Brian Camenker even signed the petition to put it to the voters all the while saying he was against it);

  • They talk about gay people being "overly concerned with youth" when they are the ones entering both school and outside events videotaping and recording youths against their parent's permission and publishing their pictures on their websites.


Back to the Romney bashing, it all comes to light in a link provided by Pam's House Blend:



The poll results indicate that 50% of all Christian men and 20% of all Christian women are addicted to pornography," said Clay Jones, founder and President of Second Glance Ministries whose ministry objectives include providing people with information which will enable them to fully understand the impact of today's societal issues. 60% of the women who answered the survey admitted to having significant struggles with lust; 40% admitted to being involved in sexual sin in the past year; and 20% of the church-going female participants struggle with looking at pornography on an ongoing basis.


I wonder if Massresistance knows the Christians who took this poll and know that they are lying (because we all know that a Christian would NEVER lie) Isn't one of the conservative principles taking responsibility for one's own actions and not blaming others for things that you do? Maybe, just maybe, Romney is trying to attract those 50% of Christian men who are addicted to pornography, you never know.

And once again they are citing very questionable online poling data. fifty percent of Christians addicted to porn? I think someone is having fun with their web pole. I doubt whether fifty percent of any group is addicted to porn.
