CINCINNATI, OH – The leader of an Ohio religious neo con organization is angry about the lack of obscenity convictions secured by the GOP against pornographers and is demanding answers from the Bush administration.Phil Burress is president of the Cincinnati-based Citizens for Community Values, which bills itself as an organization dedicated to family advocacy. Outraged by the recent attendance of Kick Ass Pictures contract girl and 2003 California gubernatorial candidate Mary Carey and her producer at a GOP fundraising dinner, Burress wants to know where the GOP’s real priorities are.

According to Burress, Carey is a prostitute who should never have been allowed to attend a Republican National Committee event, let alone been invited to one. As Burress sees it, her presence at a recent party fundraiser calls into question everything that the Republican Party and Bush administration claim to believe in when they talk about family values. For all its talk, not a single conviction has been secured against what Burress calls “white collar” pornography which he believes to be patently illegal. He questions the sincerity of the government to procure convictions and promote decency.

“They’re going to invite the very people to the White House and the RNC is going to embrace them,” Burress exclaimed.

Money may be the root of this evil, if the suspicions of the Citizens for Community Values are correct.

“I am starting to suspect here that maybe money is the problem,” Burress said. “That the Republican National Committee can be bought by the people who have the money, and maybe this is why the laws are not being enforced.”

Since he has no evidence to support his suspicions, Burress is careful to assure followers that “this is strictly my opinion, but this stinks to high heaven.”

Those who agree with Burress and the goals of the CCV believe that there would have been a huge cry from the GOP against Democratic president Bill Clinton had he invited Carey to a party fundraiser, and they wonder where the condemnation within the party is now that Bush has done so.

Burress proposes that large companies including On Command, Lodgenet, DirectTV, and Time Warner are major “white collar” forces within the adult industry and are likely to be leveraging their power with the government to discourage prosecutions and convictions so that they can continue to pipe adult material into hotel rooms and private residences throughout the nation. Since Burress and CCV are convinced that explicit adult material is illegal, the only explanation they can find for the lack of successful convictions during six years of Republican White House occupation is money.

But Burress does not yet believe that all is lost in the war against the adult industry because he has a July meeting with U.S. Attorney General Alberto Gonzales, whom he plans to pepper with questions on the subject.
