WASHINGTON (AP)—You could call it the Obama All-Stars vs. the Capitol Hills.

President Barack Obama and a few members of his Cabinet played basketball Thursday night at the White House with a handful of House members, two of them Republicans.

Thank God the country is able to keep Dear Leader entertained while he is not busy traveling around the world on our dime.

After playing with Obama, Inslee said, “I’m glad we could take his mind off the turmoil in the world for an hour and a half.”

Oh, please. Has he put his mind to anything since he began this job?

The guy looks somewhat proficient on the bb court. I wonder why he throws a baseball like a sissy.

Considering how great Jeff Flake has been, I think he’s allowed a freebie.
