This gave me a good laugh - they're brainstorming a political computer game over on redstate.com (a republican blog). I guess everybody wants to make computer game these days

Dick Cheney: Loaded

Elephant vs. Donkey smack down

huh? i was talking about Bush Shootout and Presidential Knockout... those are Miniclip games... one where you're Bush and you have to fight off these terrorists invading the whitehouse, and one where you pick either Bush or Kerry and box.. oh and this one the name i forget where you (Bush) go to England to get help against Iraq and terrorists invade London and you and the Queen have to fight them off...

I'm not singling you out Buddboy, but I am more drawing it from the site coolj posted. But I don't see why they consider a game which you are fighting terriorists a political game, because then they might as well consider the Tom Clancy books\games and Counter Strike political as well.

not trying to make a big deal out of nothing but i must say if you carefully read the article it does say something about doing ugly things to ugly terrorists, so i guess a game where you shoot terrorists or whatever could be considered a political game. oh hey cool i have three posts. am I now considered a "spammer"?
