Hillary the Panderer
Arianna Huffington takes Hillary Clinton to task for continuing her vote-hungry triangulating campaign against video game indecency. In case you missed it, last year Hillary got all bent out of shape over a hidden sex scene in a game called "Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas." She didn't seem to mind the initial release of the game, which allowed players (17 and older) to commit mass murder in graphic detail.

WAIT, BEFORE YOU GO…HuffPo:
Hot on the heels of the release of the Iraq Study Group Report — and a day in which 10 U.S. servicemen were killed and at least 84 Iraqis were blown up or shot — prospective presidential candidate Hillary Clinton will join with Joe Lieberman to hold a press conference today at 3 pm ET to announce the launch of a television PSA campaign about… video game ratings.
Oh. My. God.
The violence in Iraq is becoming more savage by the minute — among the dead yesterday were 45 bullet-riddled corpses found in Baghdad, many of whom had been tortured before being executed — and Hillary is worried about video game violence? Are you kidding me?
Could she be any more politically tone deaf?

A computational social scientist's study finds the Vermont senator's Twitter followers act just like every other candidate's supporters.
With his nonstop barrage of lies, the president has degraded our electoral system to the point that any result will feel illegitimate.
Democrats who insist that the former vice president is the safest bet this November conveniently overlook his neoliberal economic policies.
The class war that gave rise to his campaign is the fault of a long line of corporate Democrats like Joe Biden, and voters know it.
The former vice president lacks credibility on issues like money in politics. Nominating him all but guarantees catastrophe this November.
He might appeal to the white proletariat and talk tough on trade, but the only constituency to whom this president answers is the 1%.
