.... Huh

Well.

Apparently an apology has been issued:

"If my comments caused any harm or hurt to the hard working Americans who play Dungeons & Dragons, I apologize. This campaign is committed to increasing the strength, constitution, dexterity, intelligence, wisdom, and charisma scores of every American. "
--Michael Goldfarb

The thing is, I cannot, for the life of me, find this on any official sites. I can find it on a lot of blog sites but if anyone can find this on a McCain site or something like that, I'd appreciate it.

Still, it sounds like the guy is snickering as he types it.

roll a saving throw versus Bullshit, please...

Yeah, that's pure, unadulterated snark right there. I could get you the street value in a couple of days.. :)

A lot of people are reporting on it as if it were actual but like I said, I can't find it anywhere other than pseudo-official news blogs.

[lithera.livejournal.com]

Heh.

[fair-witness.livejournal.com]

... yeah. Either the guy was snickering, or someone else wrote it (and snickered) as the kind of apology Goldfarb could make.

The Phoenix Sun picked it up, but they linked back to the same series of blogs as everyone else is. I can't find any official source, either.

Holy cow, you two know one another too? Small world :)

That sounds too funny to be real. I'm thinking someone else made it up.

[lithera.livejournal.com]

That would be my guess too.

I appear to have missed the wank entirely. Details, plz?

The johnmccain.com page now links to the politico coverage of the apology, so I guess that's "official" confirmation.

[lithera.livejournal.com]

Innnnnteresting.

"This campaign is committed to increasing the strength, constitution, dexterity, intelligence, wisdom, and charisma scores of every American. "

Wow. As a gamer, I would certainly not term an apology that way. I was snickering while READING it XD

That's probably going to still make me laugh tomorrow. This is like insulting cat macro lovers and later apologizing with a cat macro that says, "Can I has forgiveness?"

And now I want that as an icon =PPP
