KANEOHE BAY, Hawaii - President Barack Obama is playing golf with friends from Hawaii and Chicago on the second full day of his Hawaii vacation.
The president's motorcade traveled a few minutes from his vacation home to the golf course at the Marine Corps base in Kaneohe Bay on Saturday morning.
The Kaneohe Klipper golf course overlooks the Pacific Ocean, and is well-known among island golfers as a scenic course.
Obama is playing with Greg Orme, Mike Ramos, and Bobby Titcomb -- all from Hawaii -- and Eric Whitaker, a friend from Chicago.
Earlier in the day, Obama and his wife worked out at the Marine Corps base gym.

Might have been nice if the jackass had invited some Marines to play with him-—seeing as how it’s their course.
You beat me to it.
I see we didn’t just pay for Whitaker’s trip to Hawaii but to Martha’s Vineyard as well. And to top it off, he’ll claim it on his expense account and then deduct it in April as a business expense to cover all bases.

White House Memo
Taking Work Home (Even When Home Means Hawaii)
By PETER BAKER
Published: December 26, 2009
KAILUA, Hawaii — Barack Obama is the first president in more than 20 years to escape the confines of the White House and Camp David for Christmas. But when you are commander in chief, the White House has a way of finding you anyway.
Mr. Obama was singing Christmas carols with his family at their secluded Hawaiian beachfront getaway on Friday when a military aide interrupted with news of an attempted terrorist attack aboard an American airliner, an aide said. Mr. Obama excused himself to get on a secure telephone line installed just for his visit in case of emergencies like this.
The foiled attack on a jet bound for Detroit served as a reminder, in case one was needed, that a president can never completely check out of the day job, particularly in the post-Sept. 11 era. The federal government moves vast quantities of staff and equipment to make sure that a president can do the job anywhere.

Oh Puke! Thanks for the laugh!!! That video of BHO and Michelle in her daughter’s sundress visiting our soldiers is weird. I got a better reception today at the grocery store from my bagger and checker. Omgosh, singing Christmas carols...

Amazing how this commie gets a pass from libs and the media (but I repeat myself) for golfing while MILLIONS are out of work since he took office, a major storm is shutting down much of the nation, and the nation is still obviously under attack from terrorists.
He is a putz.
What they did to Bush was criminal, but the media have become a self appointed political machine of the left, so it's hardly remarkable anymore that they sanctify the left and crucify the right. The MSM is synonamous with lies and misrepresentations, It's what they do as a matter of course. Who can believe a bunch of effeminate men and makeup-caked bimbos anyway? If a wrinkle appeared in the face of one of these news bimbos they'd have a nervous breakdown.
How much of our money is this cretin and his semi-beautiful wife spending on all these vacations?
I’ve played that course. Very scenic.
Carols? Did they go something like this?
Infidels who praise their lord
Fa la la la la, la la la la
Shall be put under the sword
Fa la la la la, la la la la
Lay the rug and pray to Allah
Fa la la, la la la, la la la
For the success of Abdulmutallab
Fa la la la la, la la la la!
Has anyone ever seen a reference in the media to Obama’s golf handicap? How has his golf game been characterized, if at all?
I'm not buying it unless it took him 3 hours to set up the nice cozy scenario since it's been reported he wasn't told for three hours at his normal briefing time. Who has time for carols when there's a fivesome (like really) to be played.
Shame on them.
Obama should give Hawaii back and step down and move there.
We don’t want him here.
