RNC Accepts Money From Gay Porn Distributor

WASHINGTON — After criticizing Rep. Harold Ford Jr., D-Tenn., for accepting campaign contributions from “porn movie producers” in a TV commercial, Republican National Committee (RNC) Chairman Ken Mehlman, also has accepted money from the adult entertainment industry.

According to Federal Election Commission records, Republican candidates and committees have received a total of $2,000 from Marina Pacific CEO Nicholas T. Boyias. North Hollywood, Calif.-based Marina Pacific is a large distribution company that primarily stocks gay porn.

“This is just absurd politics at the eleventh hour,” Marina Pacific’s Director of Communications Mark Hovanec told XBIZ. “This contribution was made as an individual and not from the corporation. It was a small contribution, not a cash drop off in unmarked bills in a mall parking lot. Nick spent five years on the Free Speech Coalition board, which is pretty liberal. The biggest problem he has is people not voting and not getting getting involved in issues that effects us all.”

Boyias began contributing to the Republican party in 1998, and more recently donated $250 in June 2005 to both the RNC and the National Republican Congressional Committee, respectively. Boyias also contributed $500 to President George W. Bush’s re-election committee, Oct. 16, 2000.

The revelation of Boyias’ Republican donations in the political blogosphere come at a time when the RNC ran a series of ads with racist overtones attacking Democratic senate candidate Ford Jr. In a recent ad paid for and approved by the RNC that has since been pulled, Ford Jr. is accused of accepting campaign donations from porn companies. Ford Jr. had in fact received $3,600 from the adult industry — including a contribution from Playboy Chairwoman Christie Hefner — but returned the money under pressure from conservative group, the Eagle Forum.

“So he took money from porn movie producers. Who hasn’t?” a sleazy actor says in the attack ad against Ford Jr. Well apparently not Mehlman, Bush or the RNC.
