Remember when you were a kid and Wide World of Sports would sometimes feature the Harlem Globetrotters in an "exhibition game" against the Boston Shamrocks? Meadowlark Lemon, Curly Neal and the boys would put on a real show, but sometimes, it would look as if Boston might have a chance, they would score a few baskets on the 'trotters, and the game would be kinda interesting for a bit, but eventually, the guys would stop fooling around and put them away soundly in the end. It was always entertaining, and you always knew the Globetrotters would win, but it was funny to watch those guys from Boston as they honestly seemed to think they may have a chance at beating the world-famous superstars. They never did.
Well, I think I figured out what is going on with the US and the War on Terror! We are the Harlem Globetrotters! It's not entertaining enough if we just put alQaeda and the Terrorists away with no contest! We have to let them make it interesting! Oh, we could get serious about it, and trounce them without any effort at all, but what is the "fun" in that? It's more intriguing if we allow the liberal clowns to guffaw it up a bit, goof around and let the opposition score a few points on us, make the 'visitors' think they actually have a shot at winning, then eventually get down to business and put it away in the end.
This is how we ended up with an inexperienced president and an even more inexperienced director of the CIA... Hell, maybe Obama should appoint Curly Neal as Homeland Security Director, and Meadowlark can be the FBI head! It couldn't get much more comical than what we have now. Yep... I can see the Globetrotters taking Meadowlark out of the game... he goes to the bench and begins getting a pedicure, as the water boy goes in as his replacement, and the Shamrocks actually take the lead for the first time in the game! That was funny, funny stuff!
