Stimulating the economy at clubhouses across America...

VINEYARD HAVEN, Mass. (AP) — President Barack Obama has once again hit the golf trifecta as he vacations on Martha’s Vineyard.

He spent more than two hours at Mink Meadows Golf Club on Tuesday, a semi-private, nine-hole club on the island’s north shore. It was Obama’s fourth outing since he arrived last week for a 10-day vacation. His golf partners included his friend Eric Whitaker and White House chef Sam Kass.

Maybe he'll decide to play in the middle of Irene, like the Bishop in Caddyshack.

Yet the media don’t hound him every waking moment like they did Bush for playing occasionally?

Eisenhower golfed 800 times in 8 years so Obama has a long way to go to catch him. Ike golfed Wednesday and Saturday religiously.

White House Says Fearless Leader Has No Plans To Cut And Run From His Vacation As Hurricane Irene Bears Down On East Coast…

Courage under fire.

Via Politico 44:

RENE MOVES NORTH: President Obama has no plans to cut his Martha’s Vineyard vacation short, according to the White House, even as Hurricane Irene roars toward the East Coast. FEMA plans to brief reporters Thursday morning on what it’s doing to help states that could be affected.

I NEVER complain when BHO is away on vacation. I sleep better when he is away, not at the helm, and off TV. I like it that way. As far as I am concerned, BHO can spend the rest of his term in office at Marxist Vineyard with his billionaire socialist buddies.

He’s got just a guaranteed year and a half left to round out his 100 rounds. I have faith that our President can complete his 100 rounds of golf in his term! Go, Mr. President, Go!

Well, Ike actually reduced the national debt a few times - I’ll forgive 100 rounds a year for that capability!

I was told early on in my career, if you’re working too hard, then you’re not working smart.

I have no problems with Obama playing golf it is the stuff that he does when not playing golf that kills us.

I miss the days when we had a president who ranched(GW Bush) on his vacation or another president who went to Hooters,ate cheese burgers and got a lap dance( Billy Clinton) later on at the strip joint.

At least these two presidents did what many working folks do on vacation...

Obama is no Eisenhower. Get back to me when our economy or military is like it was in the 1950’s. Matter of fact, get back to me when federal spending is anything like it was in the 1950’s.

No Obama is not as good a golfer as Ike was you are right there. Ike did not have a low handicap either. Ike was a pretty good General and President as I remember. Obama is not a good golfer nor good leader and therefore not a good President.

Of course they take the chef. Moosechelle loves to tout “her” WH garden and anti-obesity campaign, but have you EVER heard of her cooking anything??
