‘JV’ terrorists? Obama under fire for having ‘underestimated’ militant threat in Iraq, Syria

Fox news ^ | August 11, 2014

President Obama’s decision to launch airstrikes in Iraq, while backed by senior Hill leaders, has only underscored for his critics the consequences of waiting as long as he did to counter the growing threat of militants with the Islamic State – a group he once dismissed as a “JV team.”

After Fallujah fell, Obama gave his nonchalant response to The New Yorker, saying: “The analogy we use around here sometimes, and I think is accurate, is if a jayvee team puts on Lakers uniforms that doesn’t make them Kobe Bryant.”

This is because Obama has a JV foreign policy team, and JV intelligence agents.

Barry wanted to be ISIS’s Air Force in Syria in August of 2013.

I think they’ve moved up to Varsity.

Of course now the Press’ job is to distance Hillary from all of this.

[Obadiah]

I wish all you guys would give Obama a break! For Pete's sake this is the first real the guy has ever had. Cut him some slack.

This isn't a frekin basketball game.

He's not underestimating, he is downplaying because he's a supporter.

Not only did the Current Occupant now squatting in the White Hut underestimate the threat posed by the Islamic Caliphate, he even went the extra measure and “misunderestimated” the entire set of consequences that have arisen in the wake of his earlier characterization.

“JV team”? They sure are kicking HIS butt in this sandlot game of “Horse”. They are making ALL the tricky or impossible shots, and showing their one upmanship to the whole world.

And what is the Current Regime going to do about this great shaming?

This is “Faculty Lounge” intellect at its most obvious.

[peyton randolph]

By “JV,” Barack Hussein Obama meant “joint venture.” He’s a Muslim tool in more than one sense of the word.

[Romulus]

Obama didn’t underestimate anything. He sandbagged this country. He plays for Team Islam. He is one treacherous sob.

Considering his NSA advisers primary qualification for the job is that she was a great college hoops player, this is no surprise.

[TexasCajun]

No, what we have is an affirmative action JV Resident!

What? Hold the anointed one accountable? The hell you say!!!

“The analogy we use around here sometimes, and I think is accurate, is if a jayvee team puts on Lakers uniforms that doesn’t make them Kobe Bryant.”

I wonder why he would say that. Muslims brutalize women just like Kobe.

The sad part is that Obam’s metaphor reveals he really thinks this is as important as a basketball game, not a war.

“The analogy we use around here sometimes, and I think is accurate, is if a jayvee team puts on Lakers uniforms that doesn’t make them Kobe Bryant.”

Seems Obama is just as clueless with his analogies as with everything else. Someone should tell him that the Lakers are now a lower half of the NBA team and that Kobe Bryant missed most all of the last season and it's questionable whether he'll ever be a top player again.
