And I As An Independent Voter Should Vote Republican Because... ?

hanks to jesshartley for bringing this article to my attention!

Apparently people supporting Obama are basement-dwelling D&D addicts. You know, the bad, cliche, mostly-inaccurate gamer stereotype. I guess McCain and his supporters think that is what the average Democrat/liberal/Obama supporter is. Huh. Makes me want to go right out and vote for him, this does...

But hey, I'm all for McCain and his supporters going around pissing everyone off, shoving his own foot in his mouth, and alienating as many people as possible. Keep it up McCain! I don't think I could do a better job than you and your supporters in persuading people to not vote for you!

The line in question: "It may be typical of the pro-Obama Dungeons & Dragons crowd to disparage a fellow countryman's memory of war from the comfort of mom's basement, but most Americans have the humility and
gratitude to respect and learn from the memories of men who suffered on behalf of others."

No, most Americans learn from whatever Hollywood tells them about history.

It is posted fairly prominently on John McCain's campaign website though.
He may not have written it, but I am sure he is well aware that it is there and is okay with it.
If he is not, that speaks volumes about him as a candidate as well.

Shit. Now I have to start playing D&D. :(
