Care to point some of that out or should we just take the whining over Obama's golf to be the normal NeoConfused hypocrisy?

POLITICO CLICK: President Obama ties George W. Bush on golf - Patrick Gavin

Well.....it's really not like he has a lot on his plate, right? Why should The Ego be denied his time on the links?
0bama also does fours times more fund-raisers for political campaigns then Bush did in his first year. 0bama has two wars and a faltering economy to deal with, and still he finds time to do just about everything except his job.

Fund-raisers, 0bama-23, Bush-6, and it's only October, he has two more months to go.

More golf, more fund-raisers, more date-nights, more lavish parties, more beer-nights, more late night talk shows, and he finds time to write an enemies list; makes you wonder when he has time to do the work of the people.

More sour grapes. It took him less than 9 months to lift this country out of a near-Depression that took the village idiot and the pathetic Republicans 8 years to build.

He plays golf, and he is also doing an excellent job as president...and don't you forget it either.

The howls of outrageous outrage from the Left was deafening. Now...not so much. I wonder why.
The howls of outrage about W playing golf?????

Um, maybe you forgot that Bush quit playing golf while he was in office. So, if he wasn't playing golf throughout most of his tenure, why would there have been any outrage? Answer, there wasn't any. Which calls into question, exactly what sanrene and allydriver are remembering. Because it wasn't outrage over Bush playing golf.

He quit in 2003.

In 2008 he explained that he quit because he didn't feel right about playing golf when there was a war going on. Evidently VP Cheney didn't share those sentiments.

Or obama, who has surpassed in just 9 short months what took bush 2 1/2 years to accomplish.

Obama sure does have his priorities straight, doesn't he?
