Have you had the time and money for 104 rounds of golf in the last 4 years?

The Obama Golf Counter - I will not rest until...

Hate to tell you guys...

But Obama spends more time shooting hoops than playing golf

Dear Conserveatives:

The Great Gasbag represents 2 of the many reasons your movement is thought of in the way that it is:

First, he's a birther. I know, I know....that's not YOUR problem. Think again. It is your problem. The longer you let someone like this run around unchecked, the more it paints all of you in the same prejudicial light.

Secondly, the never-ending-chorus of "Obama won't talk about issues" rings pretty hollow when most of you and Gasbag here constantly bring up up Chik-fil-A and now, the rounds of golf.

He's your cancer. You should get treatment.

What issues is he talking about?

I wonder who gets paid to count the time the president plays golf?
There is a manure shovel ready job for ya!

Whatever. The issue isn't all that nonsense.

Yeah, it is nonsense.

It's do you have the time and money to do all the golf the president is doing?

3 hours and $15 bucks every two weeks? I sure do.

I submit that most of us do not

I work 60+ hours a week, and I have more than 3 hours of free time every two weeks. I "submit" that "most of us" do in fact have the time and money for a round of golf every two weeks.

And most of us if not all of us have less responsibilities__ So clearly the dude is a slacker and it matches his failures.

He's a "slacker" for spending 3 hours playing golf every 2 weeks?

I submit The Great Shatsby will probably spend 3 hours on USMB today. And tomorrow. And the next day.

Good point. The golf doesn't even include all the basketball he's played. Libs can't admit that his president enjoys more leisure time than any other president. It's sad really. If they can't even admit that, then how are they ever supposed to admit anything?

Amazing he can squeeze in that much extra-curricular activity and still be kicking Governor Romney's butt up one side of the electoral map and down the other.

Eisenhower played 800 roundS of golf as president. Tough for Obama to top that at two rounds a month

Of course, Bush set a record for vacation time. Hard for Obama to top that at two weeks per year

 

[Full-Auto]

Now who on this board thinks obummer pays $15.00 to golf? Raise your hand. It's on our dime so I'm sure it's more like the $200.00 route.

How Much Does It Cost to Play Golf?



then we have to pay for transportation, secret service, bla bla bla..



go blow smoke up someone else's butt.

Obama plays almost all the time at Andrews Air Force Base, so he probably plays about $1,000 per year if anything at all.

It is not our money. Just like anyone else with a job, Obama has a job. Once his payment is made it is not our money. it is his money just like money earned for a job belongs to the earner. The only place i know where they restrict what you can do with your money is MSNBC in the case of Keith olberman's earning when they employed him. I agreed with Fox news in allowing their employees to donate their earnings to charities and causes they feel the need to because it is their earned money. If Obama is blowing his paycheck on porn and cheetos I really do not give a fuck. As long as it is his money he can do what he wants with it within the laws of the US.

I also must note that any president is a security concern for the government. So yeah i would expect that if they took to a round of golf it probably is not at a public course. Yes, we pay for every president to have a security contingent around him, or hopefully her someday, so that they do not throw the country into chaos by being attacked or assassinated. Whining because special security concerns are taken by the secret service for Obama is pretty stupid as they do it for every president and it is expected for every president. When our president is a bulletproof ninja who no one can hurt or ill then they can play golf for 15 dollars on a public course.

The issue is not him spending money as the left would like us to believe.

The issue is he is goofing off instead on taking care of business.

Even the senate and congressional dems says he doesnt make calls.

Simply he is a lazy fuck........

Dude __ That golf doesn't include his time going on a buttload of pop culture shows, campaigning, going to sports events, etc. Come on, just admit that it's concerning that your president is a slacker. It was an issue for all you liberal d-bags when bush was taking too much vacation time.

There is no comparison between Bush and Obama as far as vacation time goes. Obama would have to take off the entire last year of his (next) term to match Bush.

 

[onecut39]

What do you base your "guess" on?

That's what the typical serial golfer spends (who does a variety of courses). Do you think Obama is putting a premium on cheap courses?

You fucking idiot - it's not a cheap course. It's an excellent course. It's $15 or $30 because it's a military course.

I used to play one of the most acclaimed courses in southern Europe, Torrejon Air Base, in Madrid, Spain. I think it was $10 for 18 holes. One of the times I played there I was stuck the whole round right behind Chief Master Sergeant of the Air Force Binnicker. Now, I'm pretty sure he could play any course he wanted.


Torrejon Air Base Golf Course, Madrid


At that same base, an officer's billeting (that's like a "hotel room", retard) was around $14 a night. For something you would pay $100 for off-base.

These are all subsidized - price is not indicative of quality.

But that $100 per night would be including a healthy profit for the hotel wouldn't it?

I don't have the time or money do train, or pay for someone else to train, a horse to go to the Olympics either. Your point is irrelevant as far as I can see.

Alright, you opened the door for it:

Bush spent a hell of alot more time on vacation.

Golf twice a month? Sure I've had the time and money for a couple week-ends out in the sun every month. You haven't?

Birthday Golf for Obama | The Weekly Standard

That's one round of golf every two weeks. I think I've had the time (though I'm sure most hard working family man Americans haven't). And I most definitely haven't had the money for that.

Romney has enough time now....since he won't be doing anything remotely presidential or important. The voters saw to that.

no. he hasn't. but they need to say that because baby bush did... and you know whatever bush's screw ups were, they need to pretend the president does the same or worse.

i think it's called lying.
