Twenty whole hours in two months. I think he's spent more time on the golf links.
Our troops understand the full cost of the war--and their families know full well Obama is leaving them hanging.
Spc. Jared Stanjer told his mother during his first and last phone call home before he was killed in Afghanistan, "We need help over here. There aren't enough troops."

Let’s put in perspective. It is not 20 hours in two months, it is 20 hours in nine months. Or about 1.25% of his time as president.

Ironically, just about the same amount of total time one would spend on the crapper in a 10 month period.

Does the 20 hours include the tasteless photo op in Dover?

King Obama, you have spent more time on the golf course and taken your wife on dates than spent time on this decision.

Whoa . . . great minds huh!
To: kristinn
Then we need to LOUDLY ask how many “direct” hours he has spent on his golf swing, or any other pointless thing he wastes his time on.
Would be a great conrast of priorities IMO.

“I think he’s spent more time on the golf links.”
I bet he spends 20 hours a week on the golf course.

No mortal will ever be able to understand the full cost of a war; all we can do is win the ones we have to fight and discourage the others.

22 hrs. over the past 9 months.
Your husband and son spent that amount of time
in probably two days fighting in the war.

Hmmm . . .

Okay, 20 hours. Wow. Each ONE of our soldiers spends 24 hours in Afghanistan EVERY DAY. How many hours has Obama spent on the golf course during this time? Heck of a lot more than 20. Unbelievable.
