No, I'm not making this up. (http://kotaku.com/gaming/rush-limbaugh/limbaugh-games-arent-to-blame-253132.php) Then again, Sean Hannity was bragging on his radio show about buying a Wii, so this shouldn't be that suprising.

True, but at the same time you'd think Republicans would be more involved with this issue due to the social aspect. Normally Republicans have been the ones who have protested against the Hollywood structure, and in the early 90's they were heavily involved in music debates (after Tipper started it lol)
