The Playgirl editor that outed herself as a Republican has apparently been fired according to Drudge.

"Hello Drudge,

"After your coverage of my article about coming out and voting Republican, I did receive many letters of support from fellow Republican voters, but it was not without repercussions. Criticism from the liberal left ensued. A few days after the onslaught of liberal backlash, I was released from my duties at Playgirl magazine.

"After underlings expressed their disinterest of working for an outed Republican editor, I have a strong suspicion that my position was no longer valued by Playgirl executives. I also received a phone call from a leading official from Playgirl magazine, in which he stated with a laugh, "I wouldn't have hired you if I knew you were a Republican.

"I just wanted to let you know of the fear the liberal left has about a woman with power possessing Republican views."

If this is true, its sad. With the current crack-down on porn going on in the government (see 2257 laws and Sam Brownback's crusade), the industry needs all the allies it can get. And running off a perfectly capable person because they don't agree with some of your politics is just childish.

I'm officially boycotting Playgirl magazine. Uh, well, since I've never read Playgirl, I'm officially putting Mrs. FlauntingIt on boycott for me. Thay may be a bit more appropriate.
