From Editor and Publisher:
(McCain Campaign Spokesman Michael) Goldfarb compared the editors to a blogger “sitting at home in his mother’s basement and ranting into the ether between games of Dungeons & Dragons.”
Bloggers sitting at home ranting in between Dungeons and Dragons games?
*looks around nervously*
*whispering* How did they know?
So what?
He’s absolutely right, dude!
Obama is a whimp and chickens out on Iraq, everybody knows that!
Vote for me.
I am sure they were using D&D to earn more Evangelical vote points. Christian publications have always blasted this game calling it “the work of the devil” and so forth. Would have loved to them reference World of Warcraft though just to see up to 4 million pissed off people posting hate all over the internet.
I ended up finding a spoof apology which is worth a read: http://ace.new.mu.nu/apology_from_mccains_campaign_blogger
Ya know Leorill, I hadn’t thought of that. That’s an interesting point to consider. Yeah, I have to bust out the Headband of Intellect and ponder that, fo’ shizzle…
