How Obama spent his vacation
Mainly, he golfed. Obama spent about 17 and a half hours golfing this Christmas vacation.
On December 26, Obama left his vacation at 9:27 to spend about 6 hours on the links, with buddies Bobby Titcomb, Mike Ramos, and Greg Orme. After he met up with his family on beach, which was located on the Marine Corps Base Hawaii, near the Klipper Golf Course, where Obama played his three rounds.
On Christmas Eve, December 24, Obama departed his vacation home at 9:33 a.m., according to the pool report. He remained on the golf course until 3:15, p.m., spending about 5 and a half hours on the golf course. He again golfed that day with Bobby Titcomb, Mike Ramos, and Greg Orme.
And on December 22, the first full day of his vacation, Obama left his vacation home at 11:34 a.m. to go golfing.

A true president would have remained in DC to solve the land’s incredible challenges, alas.
He and her are Louis XV and Madame de Pompadour, not the Roosevelts.

What ? You thought he read a book ?
Lucano on December 27, 2012 at 1:47 PM
Yes.. golfing. That is what they’re calling it these days.

Eh – so he golfs to get away from the wife.
.
Understandable, and not really newsworthy.
.
Now if Pres Obama’s vacation involved Thai lady-boys, Charlie Sheen amounts of coke, and Helen Thomas rocking the pole, that would be newsworthy.

You sure he’s not. It’s not like any of these clowns would tell us.

Remember those Disney World ads where the theme was that you parents don’t get to spend enough time with your kids due to your work and their school, so come to Orlando and reconnect with the family? Obama goes on vacation and seems to spend most of it away from his two little girls.

Too bad Michelle, Sasha and Malia do not golf or caddy. They could have spent more vacay time with their husband and father.

Who cares? What are we now? Liberals whining about the prez not following some sort of script on vacation and doing something we don’t approve of.

Quite the family man/

4 million to golf in Hawaii. That seems excessive to me.

Cuddled up and spooning Reggie Love in a private guest quarters?
portlandon on December 27, 2012 at 2:13 PM
Can’t begrudge him for trying to keep away from Michelle.
albill on December 27, 2012 at 2:14 PM
so basically, he isn’t spending any time with the family on the “family” vacation.
I’m going to smack the next liberal who tells me what a great father and husband Obama is

I have to admit I did golf once on my family’s vacation to Hawaii. I got up at first light and was back as they were finishing breakfast…and I only did it one time in 7 days.
Ditkaca on December 27, 2012 at 2:19 PM
No, it wouldn’t. Today’s news would do everything possible to cover it up and say he went golfing, instead.
The Rogue Tomato on December 27, 2012 at 2:20 PM
No kidding. How much time does he actually spend with them?
Didn’t Eisenhower get a lot of grief about golfing?
JeffWeimer on December 27, 2012 at 3:07 PM
…with Reggie Love in one hand and a mirror in the other hand?
( oh. golfing! )

For a man who golfs as much as he does, he should be outstandingly good at it. In the same way that he is an peerless constitutional scholar, a world class economist, and the spiritual heir of MLK.
