Aug 8 2008The Last Video Game Obama Played Was...
Pong. Jesus, at least lie and say Super Mario Galaxy. But to Obama's credit, when McCain was asked the same question he answered "rolling a hoop down a dirt road with a stick", which, to the best of my knowledge, isn't even a video game. So the question remains: can we really trust a president that hasn't killed a hooker in Grand Theft Auto? The prosecution rests.

Niko Bellic understands America. He would make a great president.

Pong, a perfect representation of Obama's flip flop policy agenda.
