Comparison of Obama's Golf Outings vs. Talking With General in Afghanistan (sourced)

Various/NY Times is the latest... ^ | 09/28/09 | Recovering_Democrat

[Recovering_Democrat]

Mr. Obama’s five television appearances than for the president, who rounded off the day with an unusual 18-hole golf game (more than four and a half hours for those of you keeping track).

[Recovering_Democrat]

Here he is, the hard-working Socialist.

Now, for those sources:

New Jersey Newsroom.com has an article dated June 25, 2009 that says Hussein had gone golfing 11 times by that date.

The Examiner has an AP photo of Hussein golfing, captioned August 25, 2009.

And the reference above is from September 20, 2009.

At least 13 times, then, Hussein has gone golfing...

Meetings with General McChrystal?Obama has spoken with McChrystal ONE TIME since the general took over in the summer.

How many soldiers have died? How many civilians? While this self-absorbed community organizer prances on the golf course, real people are dying. I don't expect him to go over and fight--or lead the troops. He isn't man enough. But he could speak with the real leaders of our military a little more often, and give them support, couldn't he?

Does he EVER work??? I don’t think I’ve ever seen a picture of him working. All he does is play. Must be nice.

[Dinah Lord]

My DH says he’s lazy and I’m tending to agree with him.

[ReleaseTheHounds]

Please remember that that meeting was a video-conference... very intimate.

How many times has Barry-O has gone golfing since General M. has been in his current billet?

The result will be he has golfed X times v. 1 VTC with the General.

That will be an ugly stat.

My (informal!) calc’s show he has only been in Washington DC less than 2/3 of the time he has actually been in office..... (That assumes a “day-trip” for a out-of-toen speech is not “in Washington” for that 24 hours.)

Can anybody confirm this?

[LibFreeOrDie]

Will Obama spend his first Thanksgiving as Prez with the troops? Or will he be playing golf?

[lookout88]

OUR BOYS ARE IN BATTLE!! We need to get them out. Let them come here and have another 9/11. Maybe then we will wake up again. The media would really freak if we told them we want them out because we don’t want one of our brave sons defending socialism. THESE ARE ALL OUR SONS!! LET”S FIGHT FOR THEM. CONSERVATIVES AGAINST OBAMA”S WAR!!!!

[Never2baCrat]

This so called president is the the most obnoxious, despicable, big headed, big eared, no interest in anything but himself nobody, ever to set foot in out WH! I’ll end it there, I don’t want to get banned from FR!

I think Mrs. Obama agrees. From the book on their marriage, as discussed in the UK Daily Mail:

Michelle even described her husband's election to the Senate in their home state of Illinois as a 'costly waste of time' - when he could be earning 'real money' at a major law firm. At the time, she insisted, they were 'as poor as church mice', and she was 'one very unhappy mouse'.

That wasn't all. Michelle was also fed up with her husband's personal habits, including his chain-smoking, his snoring in bed, and being 'clueless' when it came to running the house.

He was, his wife maintains, not just 'a fool' but 'a lazy fool'.

This guy doesn’t know the first thing about being POTUS......it’s the grand plan in action. The loon leftists led by Soros found this dope, made him president so THEY could implement their political views on the country. He’s a figure head, nothing more and nothing less. He and the first lady are having a grand old time flitin’ around in AF One while our boys and girls in the military are at his mercy, our country is going down the toilet and HE’s having the time of his life.:(

[ProtectOurFreedom]

He confuses (conflates?) speechifying with governing. Did we really expect anything different from the magic negro with the 5 minute resume?

He was, his wife maintains, not just 'a fool' but 'a lazy fool'.

Bwa-ha-ha! Wait til I tell DH!

[Joann37]

You forgot “long legged mack daddy”!

[Snurple]

He was, his wife maintains, not just 'a fool' but 'a lazy fool'.

Barry was a fish eyed fool!

“Let them come here and have another 9/11. Maybe then we will wake up again”

What possibly could Obama say to assuage the fears of Americans on that day? I resign the office of President of the United States Effective immediately will be the only honorable thing he couls say but hey he’s a liberal and honor and liberalism are mutually exclusive. I would think Obama would drag the country into civil war before he stepped down. He thinks he is that good.

Now he’s going to Copenhagen to pitch for Chicago for the 2016 Olympics - the day after Michelle goes too. No doubt there’ll be another vacation over there for the whole lot of them just like Paris, London, Grand Canyon etc.

To think the media used to fuss about W going to his own house for a change of scene!!

[This_far]

This guy doesn’t know the first thing about being POTUS.

Didn't know about being a Senator either. He's just continuing with his previous actions and accomplishments.

Perhaps his golfing is an attempt to find Bin Laden in a sand trap (similar to OJ looking for the "killer").

[Dawgreg]

Now, why didn’t I think of that???.......LOL

[ChocChipCookie]

Typical attitude of royalty. Their own pleasure comes before responsibility.
