Barack Obama gets his March Madness picks in on time

Barack Obama gets his March Madness picks in on time. “His White House closes tours while he continues to play golf and host lavish parties. He’ll be two months late with his budget, but he got his NCAA basketball brackets in right on time before heading to the Middle East.” Well, to be candid, we’d likely be better off if a basketball coach were making foreign policy. Why not just swap?

  • Obama treats Isreal like crap! We expect him to respectful when he had the daili lama leave through the trash door???

  • My new puppy who is just learning to not piss on the rug could do better at forgien policy at least they would like her!!!~

  • Nice to know "Dear Leader" has his priorities straight. Hope we don't get nuked or anything in the meanwhile.

  • Heaven forbid that der leader actually do something that might resemble leadership. Now let him have a photo op or camera time to predict and pontificate about his vast knowledge of college sports and he'll be one of the first ones to be done.

    BTW what's der leaders record on such predictions? Probably like all of his other brilliant ideas less than stellar.

  • The teams should wear dark arm bands this year, because UK (the University of Kentucky) isn't in the tournament. And they lost in the first round of the NIT last night to Robert Morris.

  • Okay, Obama and I agree on three our of four, but I'm not going to let his choices spoil my enjoyment of March Madness. Actually, his annual NCAA bracketology is the only thing he does that has no consequences and doesn't harm the country.

    • Which is a good thing, since he has never done well with his brackets. Like his government, he makes all the wrong picks.
