President Barack Obama reacted to the on-camera slaying of photojournalist James Foley for five minutes on Wednesday, telling a global audience that 'when people harm Americans, anywhere, we do whats necessary to see that justice is done.'
Minutes later he began a five-hour round at Farm Neck Golf Course on Martha's Vineyard for his seventh visit to the links, so far, during a vacation that began August 9.
The decision brought a chorus of condemnation from TV commentators, journalists, conservative partisans and Twitter denizens and even an unintentional slap from the left-leaning New York Times.
Retired U.S. Army Lieutenant Colonel Ralph Peters could hardly contain his anger Wednesday night on the Fox News Channel as he discussed Obama's reactions to the ISIS terror network's beheading of Foley, an American who had been missing since 2012.

A 5 hour round of golf? Holy Cow! I play golf every day. I’d go crazy if it was so slow that it took 5 hours. That’s just bad golf.
Bush-
Could have:
Shown up for the funeral of the 2 star General
Mentioned he would be praying and holding a personal vigil
for the reporter that was murdered
Mentioned he was working with Rick Perry to help secure
the Texas border
So much Bush and others could say (back handed slap at the Demon rats)- but no.....they are in bed with the rats
Can you imagine playing golf with this petulant man-child? I’d rather do my own vasectomy.
He wasn’t just playing with himself.
There was 3 other people he was playing with.
Playing with that many balls takes time.
It's more than simply "appearing".....
Barack Obama: "The Putt Stops Here."
Nah—he can avoid reporters any way he wants. He was just obsessing over his golf game.
The best thing a father can do for his children is "Love Their Mother". Sometimes that requires knowing, when not to be home.
CLASSIC!!!!!
Post of the day!!!!
Of course his little speech was a lie. He couldn’t care less. Frankly, I’d rather he ignored the whole thing and did nothing but play golf the next two years.
——Former President George W. Bush declined comment....Why?——
...because that’s how an former potus should act in preference to respect ing the office....
:^))
Psychopathy. Look it up.
He doesn’t have ANY “friends”. These are merely those who want to bask in his glow and influence. Even his gay companions aren’t his friends. Psychopaths don’t have friends.
I really don’t get worked up about him golfing, he does less damage when he’s on the golf course.
He’s only caring for when he can steal from us and give to his “folks”. Oh, and destroying the country in the process. That’s what his ultimate goal is.
Saturday Night Live - SNL if they were honest would show obama giving his speech then afterward climb into his golf cart and drive off pushing aside all the dead.
A more worthless President this country will never have.
Oh c'mon now, at least no one can accuse Obama of losing his head over this! He kept his head and kept on golfing!
Don't we want a President who keeps his head during times of crisis?! (/extreme sarcasm)
