About the GOP pinups story:
I admit that I am surprised to see the ad for calendar for "value people" - a.k.a - young Republicans on this blog.
If this blog were run by Democrats visitors here will be complaining about "indecency."
As others have said: porno and decency are in the eyes of the beholder. And tarts are OK when they are Republicans but not when they are Democrats.
Happy Thanksgiving. I am thankful for living in a tolerant, pluralistic country where even hypocrisy can be pointed out freely.
