Post Leave it to happen in California

http://start.earthlink.net/newsartic...7SL9N800_story
LOS ANGELES - Porn king Larry Flynt wants to rule California.

The Hustler magazine publisher has filed initial paperwork to run in the gubernatorial recall election and says he may spend a large amount of his own money if people take his candidacy seriously.

The registered Democrat, civil libertarian and free speech advocate said he'd solve California's budget woes by expanding slot machine gambling. His holdings include several casinos.

"California is the most progressive state in the union," said Flynt, 61. "I don't think anyone here will have a problem with a smut peddler as governor."

Flynt had not yet paid the $3,500 filing fee by Thursday afternoon, according to the California Secretary of State Web site.

More than 250 people statewide have taken the very first step of filing the paperwork with county registrars, according to the site. Other quirky candidates include several men named Gray Davis and Angelyne, the blonde, buxom artist made famous by her depiction on numerous Hollywood billboards.

To get on the Oct. 7 ballot, declared candidates also need at least 65 signatures from voters registered in their party.

Jerry Springer is just as big a slimeball as Flynt. Just look at his t.v. show, if thats not enough to call him a scumbag I don't know what is.

he has a show that highlights the lower class and their problems, he is not taping them having raunchy sex with each other, are you saying that having a talk show about the lower class is pornographical?

Unless pornography is involved.

Having porno shops sprouting all over, including across the street from schools may cause some harm.

I don't see anything ignorant and usubstantiated about my comment.
Larry Flint deals in pornography, I'm sure he will use his political power to expand his business, just like every other politician.

How could anyone believe Springers shows to be real. They're fake as hell and I believe it did come out a while back that they are or were(is it on anymore?)
