Ralph Nader Calls Obama An Uncle Tom

What in the hell was he thinking? Nader’s reasoning is pathetic. Because Obama doesn’t promise to have an uber-liberal agenda, he’s an Uncle Tom?

By the way, how funny is it that he’s being called out by Fox News of all media outlets?

How well do Rock Band’s drums work in Guitar Hero?

MTV’s Patrick Klepek has a collection of game instrument peripherals around his apartment. He has blogged about the amount of space they are taking up…which seems to be more every day. With all this clutter, at least we know he’s putting the instruments to good use! I’ve played “Rock Band” drums in “Guitar Hero” and “Guitar Hero” drums in “Rock Band.” Both of them have worked just fine with one another.
