Commented on Please release me: <em>Modern Warfare, Spore Islands</em>, and <em>Half Minute Hero</em>es
The thing is, they didn't. There's no "pacifist bent" to pull off. "Gee, ain't war hell?" isn't pacifist, especially when followed by "...but ain't it fun, too?" The writer's claim is hollow; at best it's a weak attempt at helping...

Commented on Al Franken kicks eleventy-million kinds of ass in health-care hearing
People are not dying in the streets beacuse they don't have health insurance. The Harvard study that says 45,000 Americans die each year because of no health insurance puts the lie to that--unless literally "dying in the streets" is a...
