He’s focusing like a laser on jobs.
Since Obama knows basketball and since Pros and colleges don’t have junior varsity, he compared Al Qaeda to one of the storied NBA teams and ISIS to a bunch of high school underclassmen.
Focussing since 2008 ... sure taking a long time to get that laser focussed ...
ISIS is not “Islamic State of Iraq & Syria”.. just sayin’.
Well, he is backtracking from the comment so, of course, he didn’t make it in the first place.
And with an ideological laser he is excising them.
