Obama Takes Break from Golfing and Parties to Attend Baseball Game

Barack Obama has been hard at work lately- er, I mean hardly at work. In the last 18 months, Obama has played 33 rounds of golf, which incidentally is 9 more than Bush played his entire Presidency, and if you remember correctly the liberals and the left made a big deal of how much golf Bush played. By any measure, that's a lot of golf, even for a regular guy like me- that's almost a round of golf every two weeks (roughly 1 round of golf for every 2.3 weeks as President). He might as well join a league and at least go for league champion, and then at least he'll win a trophy of something. But I digress.

He took a break from golfing recently to deal with the Gulf Oil spill by golfing for four hours, which was longer than he visited the Gulf region. I guess that looks bad or something.

For a look at how much Obama cares about running our nation and dealing with the issue in the Gulf (see my post Obama Can Help with Gulf Oil Spill), check out this post from PolitiPage titled Obama during oil spill — golf, parties, photo-ops… and more golf! (photos), and you can see a timeline of how Obama has spent his time recently golfing, at parties, mountain biking, and vacationing. Towards the end of the timeline, you can see that it just isn't worth the effort of finding pictures as evidence any more to point out that Obama is spending his time as President living the good life and wasting taxpayers dollars at parties and functions and jetting around the country to go to basketball and baseball games.

Oh, yesterday Obama went to a baseball game. Obama saw Washington pitcher Stephen Strasburg set a record, but his White Sox won the game. Hard at work? Hardly working is more like it.
