Pirate's Cove

Let’s see, we have the war in Iraq, GWoT, Social Security reform, tax reform, illegal immigration issues, etc, but, HEY! Joe and Hillary have a more pressing issue:

Two high-profile U.S. senators, Joseph Lieberman and Hillary Rodham Clinton, are incensed over pornographic content "hidden" in the popular video game "Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas," and are demanding action from either the government or the game’s maker.

The content can be unlocked by using the "Hot Coffee" code modification widely available on the Internet. By installing the modification, gamers can have their drivers find different girlfriends in the game who will have a "cup of hot coffee" — a euphemism for sex — with them.

Incensed, I tell you, incensed! Clinton (the catcher one) doesn’t have any problems with lying to a Federal Grand Jury, suborning witnesses, obstruction of justice, much less marital infedelity, but sex in a game? No siree, cannot have that. As a matter of fact:

Clinton (D-N.Y.), meanwhile, said she will introduce legislation to help keep inappropriate video games out of the hands of children, and has asked the Federal Trade Commission to investigate the "Grand Theft Auto" game.

Remember, though, folks, she thought it was a waste of time to investigate her adulterous husband, but it is ok to investigate a freakin’ video game. LOL. I just wonder, does the Joe and Hillary show understand how violent the game is? It is already rated M (mature, of course), for

• Blood and Gore
• Intense Violence
• Strong Language
• Strong Sexual Content
• Use of Drugs

If you have ever played a Grand Theft Auto game, you know the kind of violence that is in them, including running people over, using a chain saw on them, blowing them away, and so on. Did I mention that you can kill police officers, as well? Yup, that is part of the game. Perhaps the Joe and Hillary Show might want to concentrate on the violence. Sex is all around us. I am much less concerned with sex and nudity in a game that you have to buy (parents job to monitor, anyone?) and find a code for, then, let’s say, all the racy adds in a public mall for Victoria’s Secret. Kids see that stuff.

Maybe Clinton should also worry more about the impression left on her daughter after pop’s got caught with a girl not that much older then Chelsea, having "sexual relations." I bet Chelsea is really proud. BTW, won’t Chelsea’s tell all book, if she ever does one, be incredible?
