Porn Kings to D.C. - Help Us Through Hard Times
Posted Jan 7th 2009 12:15PM by TMZ Staff

Joe Francis and Larry Flynt claim the economy has made America's sexual appetite go limp, so they're going to the one place where sex is always rampant -- Congress.

Flynt (the "Hustler" guy) and Francis (the "Girls Gone Wild" dude) are asking the government for a $5 billion bailout, claiming the adult entertainment industry has taken a huge shot to the face because of the downturn -- citing the fact that XXX DVD sales are down 22% from a year ago.

"With all this economic misery and people losing all that money, sex is the farthest thing from their mind," Flynt says. "It's time for Congress to rejuvenate the sexual appetite of America."

Francis sees his industry like the big three automakers, only BIGGER: "Congress seems willing to help shore up our nation's most important businesses; we feel we deserve the same consideration."

Francis says he's going to D.C. to personally make the pitch. Sounds like someone has a bone to pick.

I thought this was a joke till I was on fox seeing what oil prices looked like the last few hours and seen this.

With the economy in the toilet, I am sure the industry is taking it real hard!

They just can't lay there and take it, I hope something comes up for them.

I will do what I can to help out and spend the night surfing the boobie sites, I will tell my G/F I am doing it for the good of the country!

barney fag helped out his former bf, a banker and fellow rump ranger, with insider info, so what's the big deal about giving the porn industry an injection of cash?
