Obama's Priorities: Football, Not Politics

As the Hamas-Israeli conflict widens, which Obama had no comment about, he addressed his priority item of interest. "We need a playoff," Obama told reporters after being asked about Florida's 24-14 victory over Oklahoma in Thursday night's BCS championship game. "If I'm Utah, or if I'm USC or if I'm Texas, I might still have some quibbles." While the serious issues of state unfold, Obama is doing what he does best, show up and vote "Present." I would be delighted if someone could get him interested in the real game: politics.
