NYPost: Gay-Porn kingpin linked to Obama

GAY-PORN KINGPIN LINKED TO O

October 10, 2008 --

ONE of the "bundlers" who has raised $50,000 to $100,000 for the Barack Obama presidential campaign is Terrence Bean, who once controlled the biggest producer of gay porn in America.

Bean, the first gay on Sen. Obama's National Finance Committee, is the sole trustee of the Charles M. Holmes Foundation, which owned Falcon Studios, Jock Studios and Mustang Studios, the producers of about $10 million worth of all-male pornography a year.

Chuck Holmes, who founded Falcon in 1972, died of AIDS in 2000. San Francisco's new gay and lesbian community center was named after Holmes two years later, thanks to a $1 million donation from his estate.

The naming of the building for Holmes was controversial because Falcon Studios profits from the sale of "barebacking" videos, featuring anal sex without condoms. Falcon insists that the videos were made before AIDS hit in the early 1980s and that the studio is in the forefront of promoting safe sex.

Bean, a real-estate developer based in Oregon, was the CEO of Conwest Resources, the holding company that owned Falcon, before Holmes died. The company was sold in 2004 but, now called 3 Media, continues to pay off a note to the foundation.

In 2002, Oregon Gov. Ted Kulongowski returned a $15,000 contribution from Conwest to avoid the "taint" of the porn connection. Bean told Page Six yesterday, "I asked the company to donate, and they did. To avoid the appearance of anything, he [Kulongowski] returned it."

Bean also said, "I never had anything to do with running the company . . . Chuck became a friend of mine, and I got him interested in philanthropy."

An Obama spokesman told Page Six: "Mr. Bean does not own the company [Falcon]. He is a regular contributor to state and federal candidates, including Republican Senator Gordon Smith and Arizona Congressman Jim Kolbe, and has even donated to the Log Cabin Republicans - who endorsed John McCain."

Oh I see,any publication that dares to expose anything about the Messiah shall be discredited.
At least they had enough sense not to hire Jayson Blair.

Isnt that the exact republican strategy?

everytime a republican is caught doing something the first thing out of the right wing machine is Liberal media......

yet the other side cant say that!! lol.

I wonder how many of the elected republican officials own some of falcon studios best work? My vote is on many.

[masomenos]

I honestly don't understand why this would be an issue at all.

I don't think that's the case, but NY Post Page six is their gossip page. The lack of credibility for that should be understood.

Truthfully, I think it's getting a bit ridiculous in here with all these "look, see how awful Obama or Palin is" articles.

If its not news, this stuff kinda bores me...

One would think.

[Maikeru-sama]

Trying to link this guy to porn now?

Alot of the stuff being posted about Obama is bordering on Spam and trollism.

John McCain has already stated that "Obama is a fine American" and "don't be afraid of an Obama Presidency" but yet the extremists continue to not heed his calls.

But like I stated, desperate times calls for desperate measures.

When I say Obama you say porn...Obama porn Obama porn :mchammer:

Can an Obama look-a-like meets Palin look-a-like porn film be far behind from Larry Flint?:D

:lmao2:

I wouldn't be suprised if a film like that is being produced as we speak .

[Sasquatch]

This will sink the Obama candidacy. :rolleyes:

[masomenos]

Seriously, how could the country elect a racist hedonistic radical Muslim homosexual who has a history of drug use??

[DaBoys4Life]

I honestly don't understand why this would be an issue at all.

I was thinking the same thing.

[bbgun]

Do women enjoy gay porn as much as men enjoy hot Sappho action? WG, clear this up for us.

Well, it would constitute change. :)

Speaking for myself and not all women, I'll say no.

[Beast_from_East]

Hey a dollar is a dollar right?

If this guy wants to donate to Obama's campaign then I really dont see anything wrong with it.

Does sound kinda funny though!!!!

[CanadianCowboysFan]

I honestly don't understand why this would be an issue at all.

If it were kiddie porn it would be, but gay porn is legal, what's the big deal?

[adamc91115]

This is news?

He donated to his campaign, big deal.

I guess it is kinda funny, though. You know, the whole "gay-porn kingpin" thing.

:hammer:

Unfortunately, it's news to some people.

[burmafrd]

I notice the libs seem to want to forget how much they supported that piece of garbage Larry Flynt for so long. How happy they were to take his help when he was trying to bribe people to bring charges and accusations against republicans anywhere he could.

[SuspectCorner]

:lmao2: :lmao: :bow:

[MetalHead]

Since Palin has already helped the economy of the adult film industry,the Dems not to be outdone contacted the porn kingping with a few suggestions.
A double feature:

"Michelle Does Freddie,
Barack Does Fannie"
A meltdown causing film.

Other titles currently on production:

"Barney's Frank"
"Nashville in Nancy"
"When Harry met Barry"

All coming soon.

Don't take anything this guy says seriously. He's the worst of the worst. He's insignificant.

Paging Jeff Gannon...Paging Jeff Gannon.

Soft questions needed.
