So as the economy sits in the tank, jobs are nowhere to be found, deficits exploding, Afghanistan disaster......obama finds the time for a little amusement.

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

Quote:
President Barack Obama has only been in office for just over nine months, but he's already hit the links as much as President Bush did in over two years.

CBS' Mark Knoller — an unofficial documentarian and statistician of all things White House-related — wrote on his Twitter feed that, "Today - Obama ties Pres. Bush in the number of rounds of golf played in office: 24.

Took Bush 2 yrs & 10 months."
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?

Yeah, he really has been a slacker since becoming president. What is he thinking?

I bet he doesn't play video games like Bush, though.

I agree. Constant obsessive campaigning for HC at the expense of much more important issues, like jobs, deficits and Afghanistan.

How does he have so much time on his hands for so many rounds of golf, in such a short period of time?

Obama does a very bad job at pretending not to be an Uncle Tom .

I suspect he is a much better golfer, he certainly is a much better President.

Well, that summed up the OP quite well!

Gee, a president who can multi-task! Played more golf than Bush!!! WOW! That's a lot!

BUT the REALLY BIG issue is ...Was He Dressed Appropriately!!!
Ya know we wouldn't want him to show his Commie/Muslim/Socialist/baby-eating side by Wearing a Jacket In the Oval Office or inappropriate clothes on the golf course!

Need some pictures...desperately!!!

So far, the lack of accomplishment is stark.

I am glad he is doing something. What is his handicap?
