Texas Governor As E3 Keynote Speaker Causes Strife
Zonk pointed out a post on Joystiq highlighting a recent tantrum thrown by the ESA. Apparently the ESA didn't appreciate the framing GamePolitics chose to use for a story about E3's Keynote speaker and Texas Governor, Rick Perry. GamePolitics continues to call Perry into question as a choice for keynote speaker, saying: "While there are surely many Christians among E3 attendess, there are just as surely many who aren't. Aside from the fact that Perry was a bizarre keynote choice from the get-go, his divisive comments indicate that the ESA should rescind the offer. We have to ask again: why is E3 2008 being politicized? The answer, we suspect, has much to do with embattled ESA boss Michael Gallagher."
Why can't people just keep them apart? Most of the mess in the world would never happen if people could do just that.
"It seems fair to ask whether GamePolitics is motivated by anti-Christian or anti-religious bigotry in their coverage. " Who's the bigot? The incident they mentioned involved the Governor agreeing with the infamous preacher Hagee, who said non-Christians will "burn in hell." Wait--who's the bigot here? How is it okay to think that a large group of people--most of the world--will and should burn for eternity in a pit of fire, but it's not okay to condemn people who believe such evil fairy tales?
don't you know that cristians have a permanant persecution complex? It's built-in to their religion
You still haven't addressed my point that Ted Kennedy cannot escape ultimate justice for the murder of Mary Jo Kopechne. If he was Republican the media would still be crucifying him for that to this day. The hypocrisy of liberals has no bounds...
