Basketball is an appropriate example to help explain President Barack Obama’s game plan concerning domestic policy, immigration and foreign policy: the Eastern Europe and Middle East fiascos. While Obama’s court presence on defense, in his mind, is deceptively adequate, his offense is full of indecision and inexplicable turnovers. I think he understands the concepts of basketball, but your chances of winning are slim if you don’t have a good strategic defense. The object of defense is to help create offense.
In basketball, good defense enhances a transition that leads to the possibility of scoring. President Obama needs to score, but he can’t score without the ball. He needs to rebound and aggressively get the ball up the court and avoid unforced errors, errors that are caused by bad passing and ball handling.
As captain of the team, Obama needs to show leadership and deploy his teammates — Europe, sane Islamics, allies, etc. — to take the ball and take on the enemies of social justice. Eradicating the psychopathic, demonic terrorists by any means necessary with extreme prejudice without harming the innocent is a good ploy.
Playing golf while the world burns is not a good strategy. At this point, he desperately needs an eagle to bring the world up to par.
