A few classmates pointed these out to me.

This one is an anti-Kerry game:
Flip Flop Game (http://www.kerrycore.com/ad_flipflight_game.htm)

This one is an anti-Bush game:
The Anti-Bush Game (http://www.emogame.com/bushgame.html)

I find both hilarious, but the anti-Bush game is the best because it is a deep game with a sick sense of humor. If someone can find a better anti-Kerry game, let me know.

It's amazing what people can do when they dislike and/or hate a person. Should be the other way around.

P.S. I forgot to mention that the anti-Bush game has a long intro.

The Bush Survivor game - sponsored by the Democratic party - looks pretty hilarious. I think its supposed to officially launch today or tomorrow.

I find these games political tripe heedlessly promulgating propaganda.

Of course that is what these games are doing, but they are darn funny.

Wow! I don't even know if Spiro Agnew could manage a phrase like that. :)

Heck, I've got more than 20 years experience as a professional writer and I had to go find a dictionary to figure out what "promulgating" was!

According to Merriam-Webster (online version):
1 : to make known by open declaration : PROCLAIM
2 a : to make known or public the terms of (a proposed law) b : to put (a law) into action or force

I assume you're using it in the #1 sense here. If so, wouldn't that make "promulgating propaganda" a redundant phrase? If it ain't "made know by open delcaration", what value would propaganda have?

I also considered using spewing but decided the alliterative effect of promulgating was worth the redundancy.

And I hardly think the Agnew analogy is accurate but a big ole :P is my response to that :)
