First it was "Risk" with real troops, |
|
now it's SimCity with real human lives.
Anyone who's played SC with any degree of competence could have mitigated the damage better than Bush, Brown, and Co.

I really bet he'd suck at "Risk" or "Axis and Allies". Kissinger, however, is known to play "Diplomacy" with anonymous online ID's.

3. I'd say so... Even set on easy mode! |

I'll also point out that *no* warning is given before disasters in SC!
Aside: My proof for the total disregard given the victims of this disaster.
Thursday evening... (Sept. 1, 2005.
I was scanning around on my satellite radio looking for hurricane news... I had been getting up-to-date news from AAR and other channels since early Monday morning.
I came across a "Family" Channel. Naturally, I assumed it had something to do with Families. But, lo-and-behold is was a cloaked RW channel and the show was sponsored by those Spongebob haters "Focus-on-the-Family" themselves. (Which meant there were not one, but, two Rightwing channels on my satellite radio... The subject of a future hateful rant).
The point of all of this is... I tuned in to see what they were saying. They said they *didn't* have any Hurricane related shows and they were going to play some other BS propaganda.
I couldn't BELIEVE it! Thursday night and they still weren't paying any attention to the hurricane on their supposedly family oriented channel!
Not only were they *NOT* prepared... They were actively ignoring an ongoing disaster!
A vision of things to come from the right wing media!
