I was slamming Obama’s time spent on the golf course with a client today and he defended him, saying “George Bush spent more time than Obama has on the course”
I haven’t taken the time to research it out but will.....
“I haven’t taken the time to research it out but will.....”
Lots of others here have. The Obama has “outscored” GWB something like 5 or 6 to 1 by now, but the fawning media keep to the script of telling us how much Bush played without reporting the numbers.
What about golf? Obama has played two rounds thus far on this vacation in Martha’s Vineyard, bringing his total to 135 rounds as president so far.
He has played 60 rounds at Andrews Air Force Base just outside Washington, D.C. — the home of Air Force One. He has played an additional 31 rounds at Fort Belvoir in nearby Virginia. Obama has played 18 rounds each in Hawaii and Martha’s Vineyard, “and a few others along the way,” according to Knoller.
Bush played 24 rounds of golf as president — but he stopped in the fall of 2003, after deciding it was not appropriate to be seen playing golf while American troops fought in Afghanistan and Iraq.
