Obama was escorted to the Farm Neck Golf Club, in Oak Bluffs, Massachusetts, by a huge motorcade, which included a SWAT team and two snipers who peered out of an open trunk.

Sporting a United States Secret Service baseball cap, Obama seemed reasonably relaxed despite the hefty protection, laughing and chatting with his golfing buddies in between holes. Obama fled Washington for his family's familiar vacation spot yesterday for a two-week summer break.

Too bad they weren’t there to escort him out of the Oval office—for good!

Daily Mail hasn’t been feeling the love for Obama for a long time. :)

Visualizing 2 snipers peering out of an open trunk makes me laugh. Perhaps they mean the back of an SUV?

Were they the same SWAT team that was on the roof of the White House trained on the people protesting during the sequester closed the Memorial to the visiting vets but opened the Mall to the illegal immigration demonstration?

Notice how the MSM never brag about his golf scores.

They are probably like this basketball shots — 2 out of 22 attempts.

I'd love to play him one on one with the winner receiving the remainder of his presidency.

“I don’t want some mom whose son may have recently died to see the commander in chief playing golf,” Bush said. “I feel I owe it to the families to be in solidarity as best as I can with them. And I think playing golf during a war just sends the wrong signal.”

And the left made fun of him for saying it.

“The Fuehrer is getting paranoid.”

He’s got two snipers in his car’s trunk, like Malvo and Muhammed the DC snipers?
Yeah I’d say so!
They must sweat like pigs back there. Oh yeah, sig heil!

i wonder how many times a day those snipers have their scopes on the first rainbow sphincter and wish they could engage.
