Shhh! I'm working hard at breaking all presidential records in record time With unemployment soaring, the economy tanking and troops dying while he makes a decision, Obama still finds time to golf. In 10 months, Obama has played 25 rounds of golf. That is more rounds of golf than Bush played his entire 8 years in office. Since Bush was portrayed as being a non-caring bumbling fool because he played a few rounds of golf while the Iraq and Afghanistan Wars were being conducted, what does this say about Obama? How will Obama be portrayed breaking Bush’s record and dithering on making a decision about sending more troops into Afghanistan, at the request of his hand-picked general (McChrystal)? Obama can make a decision about whether to use an iron or wood but can’t make a decision for over 3 months on Afghanistan? In 2003, Bush left the game of golf while in the White House, saying he did so out of respect for the troops. Obama is playing more while U.S. troop casualties creep higher. If it was wrong for Bush, it is wrong for Obama. FORE!

I've read the number of rounds is actually 40. I don't mind the President getting out of the office to clear this head. Its good for everybody when you think about it. But his rhetoric about Bush while he was a Senator for 148 days, then a candidate, speaks volumes.
Just 10 days prior to the explosion, the Obama administration’s regulators gave the oil rig a pass, and last year the Obama administration granted BP a National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) exemption for its drilling operation.
