The GOP will live to rue the day that it wooed the JeezoNazis away from the Carter camp to get Reagan elected. It’s prudes like this tool that have destroyed the party of Coolidge and Goldwater.

I think it's just something the pols do to score cheap political points. (Remember the Comic Code or the music censorship fiasco?) There actually are some Japanese games with the content he describes, but those rarely show up in the U.S. and have little market share. A lot of Democrats also complain about video games.

He's seriously just like the anti-gun crowd, complete with coming up with cute, insulting nicknames for the objects of his derision. They call us "gun whackos" and "gamer nerds". Fantastic, I'm totally blogging that. Oh my god, that’s fantastic. He’s seriously just like the anti-gun crowd, complete with coming up with cute, insulting nicknames for the objects of his derision.

On the left, we have the ACLU, which refuses to admit that the 2nd Amendment safeguards the rights of individuals (absolutely ridiculous, as any 4th grader could tell you). On the right, there are the Christian extremists who don't want the government meddling with their finances but reveal their totalitarian tendencies when they keep their kids from learning important facts about life (you can raise your kids however you want, but it's unfair to them to imprison them in a debilitating state of ignorance), or when they want to outlaw anything they consider "icky" or "sinful," regardless of the Constitution or the principles upon which this nation was founded. Anyways, props for calling him out on this BS. The pro-RKBA community seriously needs to unite behind a consistent, pro individual liberty agenda, if we plan on securing the right to keep and bear arms without sacrificing all our other rights...or rather, the rights of our fellow citizens.

I've played the game through from start to finish twice now (yeah, I'm a gamer geek, sue me). The sex scene is hardly porn. And it's in an excellent game with an excellent story. The scene in question lasts ... I don't know ... not even a minute? There's some additional innuendo around it, but still, compared to the 20+ hours you can play the game for, well ... why does this point of view not really surprise me. You can more easily find something considerably more raunchy and nasty on your average myspace site. What a heap of PSH. Ahab, you’re right on.
