First Apple rejects an iPhone game that lets you throw a shoe at George Bush, and now it rejects a game that lets you bounce a number of political figures up and down on a trampoline!  Oh the humanity.

According to TechCrunch, ‘Obama Trampoline’ lets users “select a known U.S. politician (both republicans and democrats) and have him/her jump (up and down) on a virtual trampoline.”  Some of the politicians featured in the game include Barack Obama, Sarah Palin, Ron Paul, and Hillary Clinton.  Users can also use the built in accelerometer to tilt the device and determine in which direction their favorite (or most hated) politician is gonna bounce.  You can even get politicians to do some acrobatic flips and use them to “pop some balloons in the White House or the Oval Office” with their heads.

TechCrunch has more on the story over here.

Note: There was initially a video of the the app in action, but for whatever reason, the video has now been removed.
