The White House says Obama squeezed in another round of golf Sunday before he left on Sunday morning

After vacationing at the $2,500 a night Ocean Reef Club in Key Largo this weekend, no wonder Barack and Michelle Obama look pleased with themselves as they returned to Washington on Sunday afternoon. Appearing relaxed after his third vacation of the year, the president has been heavily criticized for his taxpayer-funded trip as the crisis in Ukraine rumbles on.

Squeezing in another round of golf on Sunday, the president's holiday coincided with his Vice President Joe Biden jetting off to the Virgin Islands for the weekend as the White House prepares to welcome Ukrainian Prime Minister Arseniy Yatsenyuk for critical talks after Russia's incursion into the Crimea.

Baraq will have a lot of free weekends for golf this fall. No Dem candidate wants him anywhere in the neighborhood. They’re all begging for Bill Clinton to campaign with them.

$2,500 a night

Could have stayed at motel 6 and saved the taxpayers a small fortune.

The Ocean Reef Club is for the uber rich and very exclusive. This poser couldn't get a job as a dishwasher at this place.

Ukraine prime minister to meet with Obama at White House on Wednesday to resolve Russia’s intervention in Crimea
By ASSOCIATED PRESS

President Barack Obama will meet this week with Ukrainian Prime Minister Arseniy Yatsenyuk at the White House in a prominent show of U.S. support for Ukraine’s fledgling new government.

Vice President Joe Biden cut short his trip to Latin America, nixing a planned stop in the Dominican Republic so he can attend Wednesday’s meeting, an aide to Biden said.

Biden had been the White House’s prime point of contact with Ukraine’s president, Viktor Yanukovich, before he fled to Russia last month following violent clashes in Kiev.

At least they are telling the truth vis a vis the above statement. In foreign policy, Obama is the missing element.

Well, ain’t that sweet. After dropping a few hundred thousand dollars of our money, the self-indulgent, no-class cuties are “all smiles.”

This guy doesn’t seem to own any property. He’s always renting. He’s a bum. A transient.

I thought he was going to spend much needed time with the family. Sounds like all he did was golf .

They’re not worthy of a motel 6.

I feel sorry for that woman, #19, and others like her. How empty she and they must be inside.
