The picture of fat McCain supporters sleeping on chairs is a cheap shot, and probably no more true than for Obama supporters. I like McCain, but he's certainly not an inspiring candidate. Obama seems to inspire his followers, but I have no idea why.

McCain is a nightmare on the issues. He refuses to staunchly support drilling for oil and he's resorted to taunting anybody who opposes illegal immigration as racist. Where's Ronald Reagan when you need him? As Ann Coulter ascerbically points out, Republicans win when they present an unapologetically conservative candidate. They don't win when they try to "appeal to the center."

Obama's campaign is solely about patronage and swag. For some reason, women, gays and blacks getting patronage and swag is supported to be inspiring and beautiful. I'm in favor of white hetero men getting patronage and swag, but I don't delude myself into thinking that this is anything but self interest.

I'm bored silly with the "pride" women, gays and blacks take in prosecuting their self-interest with a vengeance. When is this shit going to die out?

It's a weirdly boring presidential election, as the Onion piece points out. I don't think that I'll even bother to vote.

Back to the cheap shot at Republicans and McCain. Michael, when is the notion that Democrats are stylish and sexy going to die? It's such a load of crap. To my dismay, I spent considerable time around the fag and fag hag crowd in Manhattan for almost a decade. That crowd is neck deep in atrociously fat, slovenly, unattractive people. For that matter, have you ever taken a good look at the majority of black people? Incredible obesity is widespread, if you don't mind the pun.

If "Erika Lust" wanted to be truly innovative, she'd make porn featuring ... ungroomed women.

Peter, I wondered if I was the only one... the men are feminized by appearing hairless (except for eyebrows) and the women continue the boring, fake-nubile look (is that supposed to be "empowering" or something?, because it isn't attractive). Which brings me to...

Death of the niche market, my hairy butt. The internet has majorly lowered the barriers to entry and costs of inputs for industries whose products can be digitized. For music and *cough* photography, this means it's cheaper than ever to procure stuffs -- often trialable or just dirt cheap directly from the artist -- which is made by more-varied producers than I ever heard about. Long live hippie pornography.

Please try and make some distinction between straight NSFW, gay NSFW, and straight-gay NSFW. some of us don't like to even accidentally see certain images.
