Larry Flynt is requesting a $5 billion bailout. For real. According to him, "People are too depressed to be sexually active... Americans can do without cars and such but they cannot do without sex." Girls Gone Wild CEO Joe Francis went on to say, "the US government should actively support the adult industry's survival and growth, just as it feels the need to support any other industry cherished by the American people."

Excuse me, did he say CHERISHED?? I'm curious. If Hustler can actually get a government bailout, which industry would be next? And if Flynt is correct in his assertion that we need sex more than cars, does that path not seem to turn the wrong direction? Don't get me wrong, I think sex is a very necessary aspect of human life. According to Maslow's 5 basic needs sex is right up there with breathing (and pooping). Look at Catholic priests - they don't get any and they're totally wackadoo. However, dontcha think stuff like food, clothing and shelter are a little more important to our country? Do you think it's right that nookie should get a handout over national healthcare?

I'm just sayin'...
