Wow, way to post an article from January 2010. Newsflash... it's now September 2012. Obama has golfed 4 times more in less than one full term as president than Bush did in all 8 years in office. While Bush "vacationed" at Camp David and his own personal ranch (usually with several members of his staff whom he met with on a regular basis), Obama has gone and hobnobed with the elite 1% at a multimillion dollar estate in Martha's Vineyard during a recession for the past 3 years, only skipping out this year because of the incredibly bad optics during an election year. |

All Presidents point out that work is being done on vacation. FDR’s Presidential Library included the following note with their information on President Roosevelt’s vacations: “It should be noted that no sitting modern president, including President Roosevelt, can ever take “a vacation.” Simply being away from the White House does not constitute a vacation. In President Roosevelt’s case, even while relaxing at Hyde Park, Warm Springs, or on a fishing cruise, he received mail, reviewed dispatches, signed and vetoed legislation, met with political and world leaders, and delivered press conferences and speeches. During wartime, his periods of true relaxation were even fewer.”
And regarding golf, did the country get better of because GW Bush gave up golf? Or is it just that you are offended with black man playing golf? Of course, there are those trying to make Muslim the new black, so maybe a "secret Muslim" playing golf offends you...
