Smiling Obama swings into action... but once again, it's on the golf course: President plays again as FBI warn of homegrown ISIS threat and US edges closer to Syria strikes
Obama under fire from critics for his hours on the golf course during a two-week break on the resort island of Martha's Vineyard Obama spokesman suggested the president needs to blow off steam with 8 rounds of golf on vacation Obama was slammed this week for grinning and fist-bumping through 18 holes just minutes after delivering somber remarks about James Foley's execution at the hands if ISIS terrorists Secretary of State John Kerry was spotted sailing off Nantucket while the Pentagon answered tough questions about the Middle East
President Obama was back on the golf course today as he enjoyed yet another 18 holes amid deepening concerns about the spreading terrorist rampage of extremist group ISIS.
The President played a round with former NBA basketball star Alonzo Mourning and Cyrus Walker, cousin of White House senior adviser Valerie Jarrett, at Farm Neck Golf Club, in Oak Bluffs, Massachusetts on Saturday.
His hours on the golf course during a two-week break on the resort island of Martha's Vineyard have his detractors teeing up as they highlight the slew of foreign policy crises currently facing the U.S.
On Friday, the FBI and Homeland Security warned police forces across the country to be on the lookout for terrorist threats as a chilling note was posted online warning that Chicago could be an ISIS target.
The federal agencies sent a bulletin on Friday to law enforcement agencies warning them to be on the lookout for terrorism. Although no specific threats have been identified, they could not guarantee no future attacks, the federal agencies said.

The fist-bump: Less than ten minutes after delivering heartfelt words about the vicious killing of James Foley, Obama hit the links with friends on Wednesday
Soulless bastard.
Seems the white-black community organizer comrade obama is not only a liar, but also a cheater. Looks like he has more than 14 golf clubs in his bag.
Anybody ever point out that most people consider vacations as being family time and that playing 18 holes of golf everyday with buddies is anything but family time?
What’s his handicap?
True to his narcissistic self.
He’s phoning it in. In a way I hope it continues. All but the hopeless true believers will dump this joker.
Sad we have over two years to go with Captain Midnight. He’s going to do a lot of further damage.
What killed me was the two pictures with snap times printed on them. In the first, he’s on the podium in his sport jacket, giving his Foley outrage speech. In the second, he’s on the golf course, laughing, in golf togs. They are only separated by 8 minutes.
Eight friggin’ minutes to go from mucho serioso to vacationing golf-nut. That takes planning (laid out clothes, rides), and energy (quick change, don’t miss the tee time).
Maybe he was so excited to be with basketball great Alonzo Mourning that he forgot all else. /S
Are black members allowed at this country club? Or only black MARXIST, whitey hatin’ blacks?
It really pisses me off that all I hear from the previous president are crickets. He should be slamming Obama at every turn. Just like Clinton did his daddy. Sometimes I think the Bushes are nothing but the democrats’ bitches.
Obama can play Golf every day for the rest of his life when his term ends ,Oh wait the tax payers will not be paying then
That the enlightened know he is a Marxist, narcissist POS.
Upon hearing of the ISIS threat to Chicago, Obama called his realtor to see if there had been any offers on his house yet.
“Although no specific threats have been identified, they could not guarantee no future attacks, the federal agencies said.”
AND YET, the same agencies stated that CINEMARK, owners of the Aurora Colorado Theater should have been able to predict and prevent the shootings that occurred there.
Although the magnitude is much different, this so remind me of the time Clinton was laughing and joshing at Ron Brown’s funeral until he saw the cameras - then the giant bible came up and he was wiping away a tear.
BTW, this jacket he wears is starting to remind me of the seedy jacket offered to men in restaurants that have dress codes. Is it the same one he wore when they took the picture of him during Osama Bin Laden’s capture and death?
That 'being President' doesn't allow him the time to golf enough to be any good at it.
