Forums - Microsoft Discussion - Obama Disses Xbox Again

Well they got one bit TOTALLY wrong. I've listened to the speech backwards and no where does he say "hail Satan", he says "hail Stalin".

Man what passes for journalism these days.

Edit: Don't forget, Bill Gates is a Democrat. Sony and Nintendo probably gave money to the other guy. Obama is sending subliminals for people to buy Xbox. After all how can you not play too much Xbox if you don't have one? First buy the Xbox then don't play it. Not only that but given the penchant for certain media pundits to tell people to do the opposite of everything Obama says, by saying "don't play so much Xbox" some media "personalities" will start promoting all day Xbox marathons, as part of the nationwide campaign to ditch class because Obama says kids should stay in school. See, Obama is using his opponents to the advantage of his mate Gates.

Now if he went out and said: "reward your kids tyhis year by buying them an Xbox for Christmas", those anti-Obama pundits would go out and say "buy your kids PS3 / Wii for Christmas". Obama would only say it once, whereas the punditocracy would be saying the opposite 10 times a day every day until Christmas. So who would get the better "free" advertising from this? Not Xbox. Obama's cunningly subtle ways is getting the opposition to say the things he wants them to say.

Next on Obama's agenda is to give a speech to the National Science Academy saying the Administration's policy is to no longer teach evolution in public schools. This will get the airwaves buzzing with people saying Obama is now trying to dictate subject material and that all schools should immediately introduce compulsory lessons on evolution starting at elementary school in protest at Pbama's interventionist ways.

In America, if a kid/teenager is stuck in front of the TV playing video games all day, it's likely to be an Xbox (360). It doesn't mean that "Xbox" = "video games" in America, considering how popular the Wii is here...



Because Xbox live does this to people;

Travis Touchdown ERECTION CONFIRMED!

Another proof that the Xbox has become the standard gaming console in this gen.

I've noticed that even in my patient's journals 'Xbox' has been mentioned several times, and with a couple of young patients I've even been discussing the negative aspects of the amount of time spent with the 'Xbox' compared to homework.
(true story)



Im sure if he was in Japan he'd use Nintendo or Playstation...and im sure after that speech he went back into the white house to play his 360. lol

Could've been worse... he could have told all the kids not to spend hours playing Atari lol... hell, I still do that on occasion.

Food Fight FTW!!!

I think Obama should put down the teleprompter and his blackberry for awhile. He likes golf too, I think he should stop doing that. I mean surely there's something more important the president of the United States should be working on?

Oh right, he's for a soda tax now. Tomorrow it'll be a video game tax. Then it'll be a french fry tax. Then it'll it'll be mileage tax on driving. Then it'll be a tax on M rated games. Then it'll be a tax on health care (oh wait he wants to do that already). Then it'll be a tax on anything that's fun. Then it'll be a tax on anything that's productive. Then it'll be a tax on anything Obama dislikes and everyone else likes.

You got to love a government that's getting so involved with out personal lives. A true nanny state. Americans have become such fools that they can't even decide for themselves whether or not to buy a soda. We need mother government to tell us how to tie our shoes now. When did Americans become so pathetic. We used to be the land of the free. Now we're the land of government control. The land of the controlled.



^^^ Watch out man... the O-bots don't like it when you start dissing "Dear Leader"!
