Guess what Obama is doing Memorial Day weekend...

It was too easy, wasn't it?

Via TPM

A surprise player has joined President Barack Obama’s regular weekend golf game: Vice President Joe Biden.
The White House says the Nos. 1 and 2 leaders of the free world teed off Saturday at TPC Potomac at Avenel Farm, a private golf club in Potomac, Maryland.
Two aides rounded out Obama’s foursome.
Obama usually plays with aides when he’s at the White House. His golf party often includes bigger names when he plays away from home.
Biden was spending a rare weekend in the nation’s capital.
The vice president and his wife, Jill, usually spend weekends at their Wilmington, Delaware, home.

Army couple forced to change wedding plans with 24 hours notice so Obama could play golf...

Barack Obama has done a lot of shameful things, but this is certainly one of the worst. Obama is a narcissist who cares only about himself. Earlier, Obama had a beach closed so he could use it privately.

Via The Hill:

Edward Mallue Jr. and Natalie Heimel had planned to tie the knot on the 16th tee at Kaneohe Klipper golf course when management informed them that they would have to wait a day so the president could hit the links.

Kaneohe Klipper is an 18-hole championship course on the military base that offers views of the Ko’olau Mountains and Pacific coastline.

The episode is the second time the president’s golf game has caused a commotion since he began his vacation last week.

Over the weekend, Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak had to defend his recent golf outing with the president after being criticized back home.

This was a double win for Obama. He got to play golf and stick his thumb in the military's eye at the same time.

If you chose golf as the activity Obama would engage in after expressing condolences for policemen deaths, you win...

I lost. I chose fundraising.

After thumbing his nose at Republicans and Congress, Obama grabs another round of golf...

Obama refused to accept any responsibility for the shellacking voters gave democrats Tuesday. Then, he reaffirmed his unconstitutional plan to enact amnesty for illegal immigrants by executive fiat and hastily appoints a new Attorney General so lame duck democrats in the Senate can confirm her.  Next, it's off to the golf course.

Obama is working weekends to stop Ebola and ISIS. Just Kidding. He hit the links again yesterday.

Golfer-in-Chief....

Via The Hill:

President Obama capped off another week filled with Ebola concerns by hitting the links during a sunny afternoon in Washington, just 10 days before the midterm elections.
The pool report said Obama left the White House for Virginia’s Fort Belvoir golf course shortly after noon on Saturday, where he spent several hours with aides, according to reporters.

Obama: Golf after Foley remarks a mistake – The Hill

President Obama in an interview broadcast Sunday said he “should have anticipated the optics” after a statement condemning the execution of American journalist James Foley.
“It is always a challenge when you’re supposed to be on vacation,” Obama said on NBC’s “Meet the Press.”
“There’s no doubt that — after having talked to the families, where it was hard for me to hold back tears listening to the pain that they were going through, after the statement that I made, that you know, I should’ve anticipated the optics” he added.
“You know, that’s part of the job.”
Obama also said “theater” is part of the presidency.
“It’s not something that always comes naturally to me. But it matters. And I’m mindful of that,” Obama said.

Maureen Dowd zings Obama for playing golf

Add this to the list of things I thought I would never see. 

Via NY Times:

FORE! Score? And seven trillion rounds ago, our forecaddies brought forth on this continent a new playground, conceived by Robert Trent Jones, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal when it comes to spending as much time on the links as possible — even when it seems totally inappropriate, like moments after making a solemn statement condemning the grisly murder of a 40-year-old American journalist beheaded by ISIL.
I know reporters didn’t get a chance to ask questions, but I had to bounce. I had a 1 p.m. tee time at Vineyard Golf Club with Alonzo Mourning and a part-owner of the Boston Celtics. Hillary and I agreed when we partied with Vernon Jordan up here, hanging out with celebrities and rich folks is fun.
Now we are engaged in a great civil divide in Ferguson, which does not even have a golf course, and that’s why I had a “logistical” issue with going there. We are testing whether that community, or any community so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure when the nation’s leader wants nothing more than to sink a birdie putt.

As Iraq falls, Obama jets to Palm Springs...

 Golf anyone?

(Press Enterprise) – President Barack Obama and first lady Michelle Obama land at Palm Springs International Airport just after 6 p.m. Friday, straight from a visit to the Standing Rock Sioux Reservation in North Dakota.
At 8:25 a.m. Saturday, they’ll jump over to Laguna Beach for a Democratic National Committee fundraiser, followed by the commencement address to UC Irvine’s Class of 2014 at Angel Stadium.
The Obamas will return to the desert by about 2:10 p.m. Saturday, staying for Father’s Day, before flying home to Washington, D.C., about 10 a.m. Monday. It’s unclear if their daughters, Malia and Sasha, will tag along.
What is Obama’s plan here in the Coachella Valley? Presumably a short vacation, and likely a round of golf or two – though the details remain fuzzy.

Amazing statistic: Obama has played golf an average of once every 11 days in office

Considering the weather is often to bad in winter, this is an amazing statistic. No wonder Obama is failing at governing. He is to busy playing golf. 

Via Washington Secrets:

As much of the nation huddles in a dangerous deep freeze, vacationing President Obama on Saturday wrapped up his two-week Christmas vacation by playing his 160th round of golf in his sunny birth state, Hawaii. The temperature: 79 degrees.
His latest round means that Obama has played golf an average of once every 11 days in office.

Our national nightmare is over. The shutdown ends and Obama hits the golf course again...

Golfer-in-Chief Obama tees up round 147...

Via The Hill:

President Obama returned to the golf course on Sunday for his first round since before the government shutdown began.
The golf outing at Virginia’s Fort Belvoir is the first since a Sept. 28 outing on the same course. That round was his 35th of the year — a new annual record according to White House Dossier.
The president played just 19 rounds of golf in 2012, an election year. He golfed 34 times in 2011, 30 times in 2010, and 28 times in 2009. Sunday’s round will be the 147th golf outing of his presidency.

He departed a little early for him, leaving the White House at 10:40 am. It’s the 34th time he’s played this year and the 145th time he’s played as president.

Golfer-in-Chief Hits The Links For The 123rd Time…

The upside is the more he golfs, the less time he has to finish the destruction of America...

Via WHD:

President Obama is golfing today at Joint Base Andrews with HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius, outgoing Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood, and White House chef Sam Kass.

This amounts to something of a show of support for Sebelius, who is under fire for trying to end run Congress by demanding donations from health care companies to fund efforts to encourage people to enroll in Obamacare.
