How out of touch is the Edwards campaign? First he hired, fired, and "resigned" a foul-mouthed anti-Christian moonbat (Amanda Marcotte) as his blogger. Now this (see below). What kind of people make up the Edwards campaign staff?

The Seedy World of Second Life

Below is my first video blog, which takes a look at the virtual online world called Second Life (SL), where Sen. John Edwards has set up the first ever virtual presidential campaign headquarters. "The Week" has a great overview of what goes on in SL. SL has been compared to Google, MySpace and YouTube for its potential to shape the online world.

As you will see, the Edwards HQ has some disturbed neighbors. Particularly troubling are the rape fantasy clubs and the child sex brothel called Jailbait (the "owner" of the club, a 35-year- old woman named Emily Semaphore refers it as "age-play.") The "Second Life Herald" complains that "Intersexed Avatar Children Hard to Find" and provides this handy graph to explain what kind of virtual child sex the adult members of Second Life are engaging in:


And when I went to check out the "most visited places" almost every place on the list involved porn. If the Edwards campaign is going to have a presence in Second Life, then it seems they should seize the opportunity to take a stand against the virtual rape fantasy clubs, virtual underage sex brothels and sadly unsurprising proliferation of porn.
