www.salon.com/2013/03/08/gops_war_on_video_games/?source=newsletterOnce again, on the attack against research, science, and the Post-Renaissance Way of Life. How long will these scurrilous attacks persist? And Why, oh Why? There are many more deserving targets remaining. Aren't there still plenty of elder takers on Obamacare? Spry young 65 year olds sucking up Social Security? The supposedly disabled (so they say!) slurping at the public trough in their Cadillacs? At this critical time in our Great Nation's History, do we really need another Proxmire to cast doubt and aspersions on scientific research? This is trying to improve the cognitive abilities of the elderly!!!!! Has anyone noticed that the Republican Party's followers ain't exactly Spring Chickens??? Is it possible that the Republicans fear that their followers would dwindle, yes dwindle and steal away into the night, if their cognitive abilities were restored? ? Could be, fits a pattern.

Everybody is so quick to bash video games anymore. Whether it is Boner (spelling very intentional), or that idiot that kept attacking video games in the past (I forget his name).
It is simply the "go-to" to blame all of society's problems on.
