    "To parents, we can’t tell our kids to do well in school and fail to support them when they get home. For our kids to excel, we must accept our own responsibilities. That means putting away the Xbox and putting our kids to bed at a reasonable hour. It means attending those parent-teacher conferences, reading to our kids, and helping them with their homework…"

    Well ,he didn't said Ps3 or Wii. Why?? Becoz XboX is war,war,war and war ;D

    Because the Xbox is more popular for the people who would be sitting in their house 24/7 playing games.

    He said Xbox meaning consoles.

    You know when your parents talk about video games and they call all of them a "Nintendo"?

    That's what Obama did.

    Could also be that his kids own an xbox and it was the first thing that popped in his head at the time. I also agree with Natewlie I remember when I was a kid,a lot of people talking about game consoles calling them "Nintendo" and even "Sega" which could range from an Atari 2600 up to whatever was out at the time.

    Seriously, don't threathen the president at all. Joke or not. Months ago over on www.newgrounds.com there was a threat against the president posted as a joke and the FBI investigated it. They questions both the admins of the website and the user at hand. It's the FBI's obligation to investigate ALL threats to the president so...don't joke about it.

    haha sweet, you know, after all of the bad shit i've done on the cybernet i've never actually been investigated by anyone :) And if the FBI were to investigate it then im sure Seph would ban me for life :( And why would the FBI investigate it, isn't there job to investigate anything... i'd expect investigations about the president to be dealt with by the secret service... ah well... and i don't actually recall threatening him physically, just with a cyber attack :) (You know what a DOS attack is right?) Anyway
    I thought the presidents speeches were scripted so how would that work? Must be his PA that did it :eek:

    More likely he said it because parents will know what an xbox is more than what a console is. :)

    What's the point of this thread?
    Obama's choice of words were questionable if you overthink?

    Nope. It's a snuke.

    Kind of like when I was in 4th grade and we had this big announcement in the lunchroom banning PokEmanz cards.
    Also, xbox is easier to say than videogame console.

    I don't get the point of his speech though. Pseudo-ban videogames and kids will find something else to waste their time on. It's better to keep them indoors and on their xboxes than have them out on the streets.

    He probably said XboX becoz Wii is not mature and USA hates Ps3.

    Do you have difficulties with rationalising and using basic intelligence?

    Because you did not read the posts above you. We explained WHY he said Xbox.
