Apparently the destruction of the world by global warming and the dismantling of the military are a foregone conclusion so what's left for obama to do but play golf.

Maybe TW will redistribute his wealth to Obama so, Obama can trickle it down to the people waiting in Chicago for him to bring home the bacon.

All is well with the world.

The shape-shifting lizard people and the mole people are getting together to renew their subscriptions to Time and wanted to see if Obama wanted in on their online subscription deal. They know the Greys preferred Newsweek, and you get up to three people per subscription.

Yeah, lets throw out guesses and start believing that without any proof. That's completely sane

He is third in line and I am sure requires secret service. I would think you posters would be just as interested in his vacation.

Common stuff for private clubs to deny the media access to their private property unless the tournament is sponsored and televised.

Did you track all prior presidental getaways?
How about Congress and the Senate?
Yet the same media wants to get into the private business of private clubs and tell the clubs who THEY should let in as members.

Boehner has told Golf Digest that he plays over a hundred rounds of golf a year, compared to Obama, who has played little over a hundred rounds since he was first elected. Which BTW, is a lot less than Dwight Eisenhower, who played more than 800 rounds over eight years — four times as often as Obama plays!

And POTUS Tracker, compiled by The Washington Post, shows that from January 2009 to October 31, 2012, Obama spent all or part of 72 vacation days in a variety of places, mostly Hawaii in the winter and Martha's Vineyard in the summer. That's about 10 weeks away in three-and-a-half years, hardly extravagant.

By comparison George W. Bush spent 32 months at his ranch (490 days) or Camp David (487 days) — an average of four months away every year!

He's getting debriefed by higher ups on something thats about to go down.
It's just an old fashioned orgy.
The Anti Christ was touching base with him about dealing with the new Pope.
A little one on one time with Rush, he lives down there.
The rest of the country's so freaking cold, there and Hawaii are the only places remotely warm.
He's being served his walking papers.
And this matters because...?
