The earthquake that originated here in Virginia was felt across the east coast of the United States, including the Massachusetts island of Martha’s Vineyard, where Barack Obama is holidaying. The President was out playing golf at Farm Neck Golf Club in Oak Bluffs when the tremors were detected...
Politico’s Carrie Budoff Brown, the White House pool print journalist, reported that shortly after the quake:
"He (Obama) stepped up to his ball, which was several feet from the hole, and made two practice strokes. He missed the hole on his first putt, but got it close. He then tried to tap it in, but missed again."

Of course, he knew this wasn't major. After all, with the ground shaking and all, it couldn't have been a shock-wave from a nucular blast or anything really bad. Plenty of time to play out the hole. Priorities you know.
Where's Michael Moore? This isn't like keeping the kiddies from panicking on 9/11. There was NO reason not to stop and check out the source, except for his freaking ego of course.

I see the bar that usually denotes a boy’s bike. Am I missing something that would otherwise make it a girl’s bike?

A disaster beyond words!! Oh woe is we... A double or triple bogey.
To: Brookhaven
No. The ‘healing earth’ rose up and bit that ball. Three times.
The 0bama shall not 3 putt.
It’s the Earth’s fault.
Or Bush’s
Or the Tea Party’s
Or Reggie’s
Or the golf club’s
Or globull warming
Or big oil
Or banks
Or the evil rich
But the 0bama shall not 3 putt.

"He (Obama) stepped up to his ball, which was several feet from the hole, and made two practice strokes. He missed the hole on his first putt, but got it close. He then tried to tap it in, but missed again."to be fair, the windmill hole is pretty tricky.
and speaking of minature golf ... The One can (and does) play golf on any weekend. But weren't we told this was a family getaway? If he's out on the course away from Michelle and the kids, leaving them to fend for themselves, why didn't he just stay back in Washington and deal with one or two of the more pressing problems?

Not only did Bush cause an earthquake, but he timed it so Obama would miss his putt. Bush’s malice knows no bounds!
