Former Porn Addict Attacks Mitt Romney

Phil Burress, president of Citizens for Community Values, describes himself as a “former porn addict”.

In a recent article, Burress atacked Mitt Romney on the issue of porn. His argument: Mitt served almost 10 years on the Marriott board yet Marriott continues to offer dirty pay-per-view movies to its guests.

Here’s the quote:

“Marriott is a major pornographer. And even though he may have fought it, everyone on that board is a hypocrite for presenting themselves as family values when their hotels offer 70 different types of hardcore pornography.”

For a former porn addict, this guy seems to know very little about porn. The ‘adult’ movies they offer at Marriott hotels are very, very soft-core pornography. It’s the same crap you can see late at night on Cinemax.

If you are going to make accusations, Phil, at least get the terminology correct.

From Wikipedia:

While both softcore and hardcore feature extensive nudity and sexual situations with the intention of arousing the viewer, the key difference between softcore and hardcore is that softcore does not include the following elements: shots of an erect penis, shots of actual penetration (vaginal, anal and/or oral), and shots of ejaculation. Generally (although not always), sexual acts in softcore are simulated, while the appeal of hardcore is that the acts themselves are obviously real.
