President Barack Obama spent last weekend on the golf course and on vacation in Palm Springs, California while his National Security team took charge of monitoring the increasing unrest in Iraq, it was revealed on Monday.

According to reports filed by journalists on the trip of the president's comings and goings, President Barack Obama spent Saturday afternoon and most of Sunday at exclusive resorts playing golf with White House aides.

Meanwhile, National Security Adviser Susan Rice and her team were tasked with coming up with a plan to stop al Qaeda linked terrorist group Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) from overtaking Baghadad.

Some U.S. embassy workers were also evacuated from Iraq on Sunday while the president was out golfing.

Its the best thing he can do. He should go golfing and let the Sunni and Shiite nutcases resolve their own problems.

John McCain and the military brass who are advising otherwise are not looking at the big picture.

Fighting between these two competing sets of maniacs operates in our best interest, not theirs.

If Iran wins, it will generate more fighting between the Sunnis and Shiites and vice versa. The Saudis are probably involved here as they are concerned about a Shiite presence on their Iraqi border.

Either way, its not our problem.

He should just allow the Christians caught in the middle of this to have sanctuary here in the US.

See American Thinker article on this subject. Its excellent.

He delegates the end of the world as we know it to Susan Rice.

Cut Obama some slack. He just got back from vacation and fund raising is hard work.

I saw that Malaria Obama has a summer job working in Hollywood, so Baraq was out there for Father’s Day.

This shows how callous obama is.

He knew of the 9/11 attack but did nothing about it but fire those that tried to save to 40+ men under attack. Note that zero reporters at cbs, nbc, abc will even ask obama and clinton where they were on 9/11. We know he was at a party on 9/12.

We know where obama is today. On a golf course.
