RepubliCons are destroying peoples constitutional rights to vote in some states. They pulled this crap on my elderly mother a week ago in Michigan. I bought the wrath of God down on her city clerk (state bureau of elections), he still can't sit down.

Mexican soft porn TV
I sometimes run into the soft porn on the movie channel Golden Edge and the SKY Network. Usually it's when I've fallen asleep and awake to the moaning and groaning .... or if a good movie ends around midnight. Most of it is terrible with either no story line or a really bad one. I even ran into Burt Reynolds as a very over the hill sleazy porn director. It was not Boogie Nights or Tempted as they got either good or semi-good reviews and this was terrible. Can't find it so maybe I dreamt it.
The only reason I even brought this up was I awoke the other night to Caligula in the midst of the no holds barred orgy scene. I looked up the movie the next morning on IMDb and found that there were several versions. I somehow doubt this is a trend but makes me wonder if there are rules.
"There are various versions of the film, ranging from the heavily- truncated 90-minute version to the legendary 160-minute hardcore version which leaves nothing to the imagination (though the hardcore scenes were inserted later and do not involve the main cast members). "
You won't find clips on YouTube but if you Google 'Caligula Orgy' you will find them

Jimmy Carter: Money ruining elections
Former President Jimmy Carter issued a blistering indictment of the U.S. electoral process Tuesday, saying it is shot through with “financial corruption” that threatens American democracy.
Speaking in Atlanta at the international human rights center that bears his name, Carter said “we have one of the worst election processes in the world right in the United States of America, and it’s almost entirely because of the excessive influx of money.”
The 39th president lamented a recent U.S. Supreme Court decision that allows unlimited contributions to third-party groups that don’t have to disclose their donors.
The dynamic is fed, Carter said, by an income tax code that exacerbates the gap between the wealthiest Americans and the rest of the electorate, allowing the rich even greater influence over public discourse and electioneering.
He added that he hopes the “Supreme Court will reverse that stupid ruling,” referring to Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission.
