I don't agree.....

I view it the other way Obama submitted to Boehner. Boehner is the golfer - Obama is the amateur. I give Boehner props if this is what it takes to get Barry to cave and turn on his lib buddies.

Regardless I don't care who plays golf with who - I'm interested in results.

He was afraid that Obama’s frequent golfing would be a winning issue for the GOP.

“IMO, it says more about the people who get so riled up over a golf game than about the golfers.”

If you view Obama as just another politician that other politicians must work with in order to run this great nation, it is simply a golf game and not worth the mention.

However, if you view Obama as a traitor positioned by america-hating socialists bent on doing as much damage as possible to our economy and personal freedoms... golfing and drinking sodas with him becomes unacceptable.

Easy answer.

Zero and the regime are all about politics all the time.

For zero to be seen playing golf or reaching across the aisle something he has been accused of not doing,it was a win, win, win politically for him.two to three more popularity points in the next poll which is all that matters to the candidate-in-chief.

The optics of Boehner golfing with Obama all favor Obama.

He’s the one who’s been taking hits for playing golf incessantly instead of 1) actually caring about the effects of his devastation of the economy or 2) actually working to undo the ill he’s caused.

Otherwise, you wouldn’t have Michelle out there campaigning about how tirelessly Obama works and how truly he cares about those suffering in this economy. You also wouldn’t have Michele out there dinging Barry for his lack of ‘empathy’.

Boehner’s golfing with Barry gives three chits to the re-elect Obama effort and takes a couple of quivers out the GOP’s campaigning bow.

YOU NAILED IT.

The GOLF event was a set up by Axelrod for reelection purposes !

The out of touch clueless K street whore namely Bonehead and his stupid aides had no idea they Soros media machine wanted photos of the GOP K hooker to flash if the Soros puppets non stop golfing events are used in campaign ads.

Bonehead Needs TO GO NOW.

A useful idiot of the left/ DC Elite playing a rich man's game while the country is sinking into financial and
social turmoil !

Exactly, thats what it was all about.

Evidently zeros excessive time on the links was not polling well. Won't matter now.

Either that or the rinos and the rats are both so corrupt no one cares.Either way we lose.

Did Boner stop on the golf course to cry??? Beg? Whine? Check to see if he has any spine and guts? Announce that he is stepping down in favor of a real Conservative?
