On one side we have two brilliant strategists and great team leaders, and on the other side there’s a telegenic spokes-model and a semi-senile dinosaur.
And unfortunately for all of us, the great leaders are competing for bragging rights about a kids’ game, while the bozos are fumbling and bumbling and humbugging our world into oblivion.
The Lakers draft Kobe Bryant. McCain drafts Sarah Palin. Obama drafts Larry Summers.
Harharharhar!!!
McCain and Obama are idiots!
And since it’s pointless to ask how we could convert American politics into something more like the NBA, with brilliant leaders instead of clowns in charge, because we all know that isn’t going to happen…
We might as well ask how to convert the NBA into something more like American politics, and that would be simpler than you might imagine, because…
All we have to do is make sucking up to the fans the only qualification for coaching, with the proviso that none of the candidates has any kind of record as a coach, or even as a player.
“You/We are the ones we/you were waiting for!”
“I love your values!”
And if you subtracted sucking up to the fans from McCain and Obama, both those clowns would disappear, like smoke blown away from a mirror.
