The Wii House Could Bowl Over Obama

The Obama girls got a Wii for Christmas and naturally it’s coming with them to the White House. A doting dad, PEBO has been playing Wii bowling with his kids. In Altoona, PA during the primaries he bowled a 37 during an abbreviated 7 frames games, but told the New York Times he’s doing better in virtual reality. He may have some IRL chances to improve his game–Richard Nixon had a bowling alley installed in the White House basement.
WTF?!?
He’s always telling people to put away the video games and spend quality time with their kids, which I often point out to my kids. They like him, so this works well when my kids ask for video game players or iPods, and they often stop asking and say, “Oh you’re probably right. We don’t really need those things.”
Now, in the extremely limited amount of time he has with his daughters, he admits he spends some of that time playing video games with them??!? This is really going to throw my whole strategy out of whack.
