She can't pay the rent because she is laid off from a large corporation which is outsourcing her job to Nepal and so she becomes desperate and auditions for a porn movie. She does a few movies and, while she now has plenty of money, she feels horrible and sad for what she is involved in.

OK, what does this YouTube site and those pro-Obama sites have in common? You submit a reply and you get a sentence in red saying "comment pending approval."

Okay, I can understand a bit. I have seen really good LDS videos posted on YouTube and you get people posting commentary that looks more appropriate for a bathroom wall. Same for some of the children's learning videos that get posted that are not affiliated with anyone.

However, why not just edit our profanity and mean-spirited video -- rather than only allowing sugary fluff posts? I am LDS, but since I know only a small sample of mindless commentary is posted then I cannot take any of it seriously. Like I said, the only other sites I see this in are pro-Obama postings.
