CARRY A BIG STICK

any feel-good vibe coming out of the sunny summit
 
being held at the sunnylands compound near palm springs
 
this coming friday and saturday
 
could be soured by president obama taking a hard line with
 
chinese president xi over chinese cyber-hacking
 
obama's plan is his hope that president xi is the real hacker
 
- a hacker and a duffer on the golf course
 
while meeting in rancho mirage, the two world leaders are
 
expected to play a few rounds of golf on the ultra-exclusive
 
sunnylands course, a course reserved only for the famous
 
while the US is encircling china with its strategic military
 
'pivot to asia' - the cyber-dispute IS the most pressing issue
 
the president's plan is to explain this pivot while making
 
some deep and damaging divots while playing golf
 
showing the chinese president - who his daddy is...
 
obama needs to show the chinese that he has balls
 
and that he may walk softly - and a little funny at times
 
- but that he carries a big stick
 
it's been said - by the vice president no less
 
that obama has - in deed - a big stick
 
after all , this coming sunny summit meeting is between
 
the two biggest superpowers on earth
 
and the american president needs to prove to his counterpart
 
not to mess with a brother - even if he's just a half brother
 
the point is to show that the half, is his bad half
 
there's also a play-by-the-rules aspect to this
 
since the chinese are known for their love of deception
 
obama feels that kicking his ass on the golf course
 
will finally teach them the lesson that is so important
 
- don't mess with a black golfer with nuclear weapons  
 
obama has been under strong pressure to persuade xi
 
to take US cyber-hacking worries much more seriously
 
and he intends to do so by showing the chinese
 
that is not a good idea to screw with him 
 
 
on or off the golf course
