Comments on: Sen. McCain's MySpace Page: Pretty, Witty and Gay http://ccinsider.comedycentral.com/2007/03/27/sen-mccains-myspace-page-pretty-witty-and-gay/ The blog by and for comedy nerds.

Why did the broadcast tonight portray it as a hacker/saboteur who played a prank on McCain? You slammed a guy who had his work and bandwidth stolen, played a joke worthy of The Daily Show, and demonstrated how out of touch the political newbies are on the internets. You owe the man an apology for the way you presented the story on TV. Comedic license doesn't justify slander, even a mild variety like this. If I were him, I would be pissed. Get your 15 minutes of fame via Jon not knowing what the fuck he's talking about. That's right, I said it! I love the show. That's why it's really disappointing. Man up and correct your on-air report. Correct it on air. Not here. So Comedy Central does know the real story.

The Senator is lucky that the response to his image and bandwidth theft was just a minor joke on Gay marriage. There are historical precedents for using much more disturbing and graphic images when someone is stealing your bandwidth and Intellectual Property.

Haw Haw at McCain. First he has to pander to the crazy Christian right, now his campaign screws this up. What the hell does Dennis Miller have to do with any of this?

If all he does is make personal comments about the Democrats (i.e.) Nancy Pelosi's eye blinking, and other similar personal attacks, then I would suggest that you Ask Mr. Miller how many shares of Halliburton does he own, and when he expects to move to Dubai.
