Staying: Press refuses to leave Obama, golfing for 223rd time
Washington Examiner ^ | 3/29/15 | Paul Bedard

Posted on 03/29/2015 1:15:58 PM PDT by Nachum

For a second day, the "pool" of reporters in Florida to cover President Obama's golfing weekend refused to be dismissed by the White House, stationing in a maintenance shed near the super exclusive course the president is golfing at for his 223rd round of golf since taking office.

The first "pool report" of the day said that the president's team said he wouldn't be making news or appearing in public, thus declaring a news "lid" and allowing the media to stay at their hotel 15 miles away.

But as they did Saturday the reporters opted to stay close to Obama in case something happened during his golf outing in Palm City.

Folks , it appears to me that America has it’s own insane pilot in the cockpit ; Barack Hussein Obama . He has booted everyone else out of positions of co-control and locked the door . Like passengers of a certain recent German airliner , as we look out the windows we all see the fatal mountain ranges fast approaching , but we can do nothing . Because the door to access the controls is locked and the pilot will have his way , his agendas and no others . What is the outcome? Folks this ‘deal ‘ with Iran stinks . Iran cannot be trusted , and we the American people , indeed the people of the entire western world and especially the citizens of Israel , will be at the mercy of this deal with the world’s most untrustworthy country if this ill advised ‘deal’ goes thru . We see the mountains , but people in our government and apparently our military , cannot , or will not , do anything to stop the descent of our flight . Some may disagree with my analogy here , but take a good look . Of course it’s more than one man , and yet THIS one man has so stacked his government with like-minded minions , his agendas are carried out , extra-Constitutionally , no matter what . He has so ‘fixed’ the system that the safety door cannot be opened . Any assistance from others , in command and control of our great nation, is NOT welcome and completely denied . We are living in such dangerous and unstable times , and yet we have entrusted ourselves , and our great nation , to an insane pilot . A pilot with insane agendas , a pilot that does NOT consider all of us and the lives we lead , nor the lives of our ancestors to come . All of which will be affected by the insane pilot’s actions ( and reactions) in the next very short while . Folks , again I maintain ; America cannot wait , for another 1.8 years , and another stupid electoral go-around game . For another corrupted media manipulation , and all the other ‘elements’ that operate behind the scenes , to try an foist off yet another un-American Leftist ‘progressive’ nitwit on our nation . We simply can’t endure the course we are on . Folks ; the mountains are dead ahead . What are we going to do about it ?

Odd you don’t hear a peep out of Michael Moore over Obama’s golfing (like the deal he made out of GWB’s, major sarc).

We will do what the passengers did - nothing, because there is nothing we can do, just as there was nothing the passengers or pilot could do. America is as doomed as that jetliner.

If you have any ideas to salvage this once-great nation, I am all ears.

Yep. That's 223/2259 = .0987, or 9.87 % of the time in office, the guy has been golfing. Could you keep your job doing that?

Freepers alerted conservatives in power to what we’re seeing - and they noticed.

Reporters aren’t walking off to let Obama play golf - they’re watching.

Things aren’t hopeless... yet.

I don’t think any FReeper is dumb enough to think you’d lose that bet...

It is actually mild for a middle class working guy with normal responsibilities. For a man in charge of a trillion dollar economy, with men fighting and dying under his charge, it is simply a sign he doesn’t take anything seriously. If wouldn’t sound so bad if you thought of it as once every other week, but for a President at war??? This man is hapless hopeless and “hair”less as my dad would say. If you had “no hair” you were just a boy not to be taken seriously
