President Obama: Gamer In Chief

February 19, 2009


The White House has become the Brick House!

During his first days in office, President Obama laid down the law — Hands off my BlackBerry! But his insistence on keeping it wasn't just because he wanted to stay in touch with family and friends. Turns out the Prez is hooked on playing the mobile game BrickBreaker!

"He plays to unwind," a confidante reveals. "Every night before bed, he gives it a few minutes."

And he's hardly all thumbs.

"His high score is around 15,000!"

What do you think of President Obama's BrickBreaker habit? Does it make you like him more, less or the same? Talk back.

Wow- everyone of you is just bending over for Obama. He is the President of a country in economic crisis. We do not need him playing brickbreaker all day or planning out a 15 minute espn segment on his NCAA bracket. His celebrity approach to the presidency is absolutely ridiculous.
