Clinton’s Bill Equates Video Games With Cigarettes

"Freedom-defender Sen. Hilary Clinton wants to add Mature and Adult Only video games to the list of things to buy when someone turns 18. Clinton plans to introduce a bill that will make selling or renting MA and AO games to minors illegal. She also wants a recall of all copies of the game, offering those offended (or willing to cash in) reimbursments. This, along with launching an investigation to root out the source of Hot Coffee, is Clinton’s response to the shrill cry of “Won’t someone please think of the children!”

“The disturbing material in Grand Theft Auto and other games like it is stealing the innocence of our children and it’s making the difficult job of being a parent even harder, I am announcing these measures today because I believe that the ability of our children to access pornographic and outrageously violent material on video games rated for adults is spiraling out of control.”
- Sen. Hillary Clinton

If Hilary finds out about the internet the days of getting sweet and free porn are totally over."

Where was her outrage when Bill was playing hide the cigar with Monica?
