GamePolitics has been following the saga of the Virginia Tech Review Panel since they began, documenting the semi-invasion of the the process by followers of nutty political figure Lyndon LaRouche, seemingly hell-bent on blaming the entire incident on video games. From telling the panel that violent games should be banned like heroin to endlessly testifying against a hobby that had nothing to do with the incident at all. When the report was finally released last week, it contained no mention of video games. Case closed, right?

Oh no, of course not. On the Lyndon Larouche website a new item is running entitled, "Bush Administration Issues Cover-Up Report on the VA Tech Massacre", which claims the games industry is praising the report for excluding any game-related information in the report. Sheer craziness.

Imagine you are writing a book report on, for instance, Mesopotamians, and in your research someone offers you a story about digital watches, which has nothing to do with the subject of your report. Then they get angry you didn't include it in the text. "Fahey Covers Up Mesopatamian Digital Watch Connection." Politicians are whacky. Michael Fahey
