Online fight against Obama – thousands join

www.russiatoday.com

An online game oriented against Obama’s administration has become a handy tool for opponents of the US president.

“2011: Obama's coup fails”. That's the name of a new controversial American computer game. It is an online browser multi-player action game, depicting the US President triggering the collapse of the country. In the scenario, Obama's policies lead to public outrage and a revolution.
The creators of the game work behind a metal door due to safety considerations. After the threats they have been receiving, the crew decided to keep their New York office secret.

That's al amazing, funny, crazy and dangerous at the same time. People warming up for a revolution?

Even gamers are waking up to the failure to deliver of the president, people are tired to see him carry on Bush' legacy and the change he promises are all broken and superficial.
I havent played this game, I just hope it doesnt promote violence, racism and extremism.

Michael Russotto is the only mastermind out of 8 people behind the game not afraid to reveal his identity. He says over 13,000 members have already signed on, and hundreds of people play everyday.

What do you think are the odds of those 13,000 who joined ending up on some watch list?

....I have an idea....

Ok no one steal this from me.

How about a game, now hear me out, where you play a Presidential game, you have to become candidate for 2012, then once you win, you have to do all you can to screw over the general public.

It consists of taking the right bribes, discreetly raising taxes, controlling the media.

That, would be a fun game!!!

Alright, I am in. Do we get to play Presidents of the past? If we do, anyone since maybe JFK would be a winner.

If we are a loser, do we get the same outcome as JFK, if so, I do not want to play.

The endisnighe!

It sounds like fun.

I don't think that the people who are playing the game really even care anymore. People are tried and want change for the good of our country.

So it seems the denouement of the game is a communist uprising and revolution.

The game appeals not only to Obama haters on the right but also to radicals on the left who want Obama to be more socialist than he is.

Everybody wants EVERYTHING from Obama and they want it NOW. Otherwise they want a revolution.

Is there a game for sane people who understand that no president is perfect?

I am laughing so hard my sides hurt....

Is that what we are calling Obama? A little less than perfect?

Just so you know...so far this is the second thread tonight baiting people into a precarious secret service field day.

Be cautious.

Never ceases to amaze me.. people vote Bush twice, bush spends 8yrs destroying the country. Along come Obama.. pulls no punches in saying a long recovery is ahead. He's already "failed" for not repairing 8yrs of destruction in 1yr.I'll reserve judgment on Obama sometime around the 3yr mark. BTW this game has been linked to members of the Klan.

I dont think the feeling that Obama has failed has anything to do with the fact that he hasn't undone the prior 8 yrs. in 1

I think it has more to do with the whole "Change" thing that alot of people bought in to...and got #ed on

Change is all we are going to have left when Obama turns over the U.S. to the next dick-tator

BTW this game has been linked to members of the Klan.

Ha ha ha ha ha ha cough cough spit on the ground

what a better reason to play...at least when it comes to the Klan...you know exactly where you stand

not quite the same in regards to where we stand with the Obama administration

linked to the Klan...that's funny

Oh, sure, because the growing number of people dissatisfied with Obama's performance are the ones with the problem, right?

Get over yourself, sir.
