He could at least play it down.



He definitely has secret service in the woods throwing his ball out into the fairway.

I was more perplexed that he's played 300 rds of golf in 8 years.

He's a Harvard educated professional person before becoming President, he pays for nothing ever, and he has written several books?

The Commander-in-Chief also played a few other rounds of golf — now having logged more than 300 while in office


That's a round every 10 days. Most everyone gets a couple of days off every five. No big deal.

Cracks me up.

I'm not a Dem or GOP, but GOP folks always point out that Democratic candidates make money as a bad thing but laud their ridiculously rich candidates as being "business savvy"

People love to bash on every president...just b/c he is black doesn't mean he should get a pass. Hell you should see how bad the media bashes republican presidents meanwhile they don't bash the democratic ones.

Imagine how much he would have cost the country if he would actually been in his oval office rather than on a putting green.

True. I'm sure it just feels like Obama catches more shite because of the state I'm in.

Who cares? The President is underpaid to start and it's a drop in the bucket compared to the other shite our government spends money on.


What a terrible mindset.

I think y'all are missing the point here. It's not an Obama thing, it's a politician thing. If you can't see how ridiculous it is that a "public servant" spends $4 million of the public's money on playing golf, then this country is too far gone.

The gov't has gotten so fricking bloated that people actually think this is ok?

Go write your checks to the IRS, politicians need to play golf.
