Grim milestone: Semi-retired president plays 200th round of golf in office

Two hundred sounds like a lot but it’s small potatoes compared to what the most avid presidential golfer racked up. Woodrow Wilson managed to damage America in all sorts of durable ways while golfing a mind-boggling estimated 1,200 rounds in just six and a half years. (He was incapacitated for the last 18 months or so of his presidency due to a major stroke.) That’s roughly 3.5 rounds a week for every week of his presidency while he was able-bodied; Obama, by comparison, has racked up a meager 0.67 rounds per week, meaning he’s out there not quite every weekend but every two out of three.

So I have to ask, is Woodrow Wilson someone you WANT to be compared with? Guess you could argue that if Zero played more golf, fewer bad things would happen?

Semi-retired? Just feel good about how we’re gonna be payin’ him and protecting him moving forward once he’s out of office. Makes me all warm and fuzzy. NOT!

Why shouldn’he play? Everything’s going his way. Whitey’s gonna get ebola, IS is expanding,Whitey can’t fnd a job.

By all accounts, Wilson was a horrible golfer. His record is amazing considering how long he must have taken to complete a round.

GWBush played 24 rounds of golf total... takes endless crap for 8 years

0bama plays 200 rounds of golf while inviting ebola into the country, orchestrating a flood of illegals, helping iran get the bomb, etc... and is hailed as a brilliant statesman, getting the peace prize (before he sat in the seat)

the left is populated by the mentally ill

the headline is a real keepr...

I haven’t played 200 rounds of golf in my entire life.

why can’t he take up jogging or biking, like the spendthrift President Bush. It is a lot cheaper, and would free up money for an Ebola Vaccine.

Don’t insult the 3 stooges with a pic of Obama. They could do a better job...

Have you see him biking? My gosh, he could set bike sales back with his outfits...
