After an hour of hiking, President Obama Monday got down to the serious business at hand, heading out to golf for the second day in his first three days of vacation. He was back on the course at Marine Corps Base Hawaii.
With this one, Obama reaches a new milestone, having gone golfing 90 times in less than three years as president. That’s about three months of golf, given that the excursions generally take about five hours – much of the useful portion of the day.
What’s more, it’s the 32nd time he’s been on the links this year, a record for the president. His 32 outings eclipses the 2010 mark of 30 and is far ahead of his 2009 tally of 28 rounds as president.
And remember, there are still five days left in the year for Obama to pad his new record, which he almost certainly will.
Along for Monday’s round were three of Obama’s Hawaii friends, Mike Ramos, Greg Orme and Bobby Titcomb. The latter, you may remember, was arrested in April in a prostitution sting.

I’m sure this dope also stinks at golf. If I hear one more person say George Bush is dumb my head will explode. How did this flim flam jerk fool so many people? No Obama 2012.
With the Obamaconomy the way it is, I HAVE NOT HAD THE TIME TO PLAY 9 rounds of golf in the last 3 years as opposed to 90!!!!!! To busy working trying to make money in this economy Obama seems to have engineered to fail!
You keep saying you aren’t going to comment but here you are again.
Harry loves playing the role of internet troll.
He just can’t quit us….LOL.
I just think you folks can’t handle the truth and deal with it by insulting someone who actually provides facts. FACTS.
When a fact bites us we will know it. Waiting…
Who cares? Why is this news? What a waste of “ink.”

So he must be almost as good at golf as he is instituting executive orders toward a goal of complete government control where everyone and everything is equal and fair. Does he bet? That would not be fair if he won more than he lost.
Golf or Man’s Country – this is how my Big O rolls!
Who’s watering the 37 “Holiday Trees” that Queen Michelle had placed in each room of the WH?
One of the numerous Bo the dog it would be recycled and green:)
He does less damage to America when he is on the golf course. Send him some new golf balls
This wouldn’t be so much of a big deal if Obama was an actual leader. If he could get things done. But he does neither of those things. So, when he heads out to the golf course, it appears that he is continuing his do-nothing, lead-nothing role.
Plus, it is a stark contrast to GWBush, who in 8 years in the White House, forewent his rounds after 9/11 occurred.
I can’t wait for some real leadership in the White House.
Definitely quit watching FOX! You are truly brainwashed. Watch CNN and MSNBC for unbiased opinions. Rachel Maddow is the most distinguished reporter of the unvarnished truth. She uncovered the inconsistencies of Sarah Palin for criminey sakes. Rachel should be moved up in time slots or perhaps co-host with the almost equally brilliant Keith Olbermann. Greatness is upon us. Vote big O in 12.
You forgot to put the sarc tag after your post ;-)
I didn’t forget it. You must be an evil doer.
Nope, I’m a Tea Party hobbit.
According to CBS News White House Correspondent Mark Knoller, today’s trip marks Mr. Bush’s 149th visit to the presidential retreat. The planned three-day stay, during which the president is being joined by family and former and current aides, will bring his total time spent at Camp David to all or part of 487 days.
Yes, that’s 487 days. And Camp David is not even where the president has spent the most time when not at the White House: Knoller reports that Mr. Bush has made 77 visits to his ranch in Crawford during his presidency, and spent all or part of 490 days there.
Typical Obama apologist, always trying to deflect from the issue by dragging up the past.
Facts are stubborn things Susan. Seems like you have Obama Derangement Syndrome. Funny, I READ references to Jimmy Carter and Obama’s past actions,BUT NOT A PEEP FROM YOU. Must not align with your refusal to acknowledge FACTS.
Better ODS than no derangement syndrome at all. Are you people under the mistaken impression that many here loved Geo Bush? I would check your assumptions, if I were you, which thankfully I am not.
Mikey: I guess you don’t understand a working vacation. Bush took working vacations. O’Blamer takes expensive luxury vacations, closes the golf course to those to whom it belongs (the service members) ties up traffic and eats lobster/Kobe beef all at tax payer expense. He is a national disgrace!
Hey Mikey, did Bush take a “friend” along who was arrested in a prostitution ring? Just wondering, Mikey. Now, go back to watching fat eddie schultz on PMSNBC.
Liberals still claim that Obama has only had 68 Vacation days as POTUS, while Bush had 168 at this time (before this trip). Lets see, 3 Martha’s Vinyard trips( ~30 days), 2 Hawaii trips(~30 days), 3 Ashville NC trips(~10days) and 90 days of golf that I know of(90Days)….
Pelosi math?
Speaking of Botox Nancy, did you read where she is spending the evenings in a swank $10,000 a night hotel in Hawaii? All on taxpayer money of course.
” having gone golfing 90 times in less than three years as president. That’s about three months of golf……….”
Unfortunately, it’s about 30 months shy of what he should have been playing for the good of the country. Instead, when he should have been outside, getting fresh air and healthy exercise, he was pretending he knew how to be President, and doing incredible damage to the US.
Golf, Barry, Golf!! Take the next year off and golf to your silly little heart’s content!!
Golf! Golf! Golf! Golf! Golf! Golf!
What hole was he on when he said he already spent all the money he got in August and now needs $1.2 trillion more ASAP?
Ridiculous. I own a small business and belong to a golf club and don’t have enough time to play 30 rounds a year, how can he? Get to work, lazy man, if you were my employee I’d fire your ass. Hopefully we will all make that happen soon.
Gee, was Eisenhower lazy? Won World War 2, President eight years and 2512 rounds of golf and you morons are worried about 90? Get a life!
He golfed almost every day as President? 8X364=2920. I didn’t include leap years…
Actually according to Stupid Facts on-line it was 1879 rounds-look it up! Sorry,but the facts are the facts. Can you imagine what would have happened in IKE’S day if this nonsense, Dem and Rep was generated day after day after day by partisan hacks?
Ike was the man who sent men into D-Day and took full responsibility
for it he had a prepared statement in his pocket if it went badly. In it
he took complete responsibility and said it was his decision alone.
Nothing like Obama who looks on Bush as his cradle to grave person to blame for everything nothing is his fault… some leader.
Are you serious- Bin Laden, that’s all I need to say you twit.
And what exactly did Barry do different the enabled our military to track down this coward that was nothing more than a figurehead at which point he was murdered by our courageous ex ACORN lawyer? Nothing dimwit.
Please, Obama did absolutely nothing but give the okay to take Osama out. In fact, Obama had to be dragged off the golf course to sit in a corner and watch the real heroes in action.
Well really, that’s all you can say.
He did nothing but send in people and I am a 61 year old
woman who knows more history than you will ever learn. I am
not a twit guess manners aren’t you’re strong point.
Using the term “manners” along side “liberal” is an oxymoron.
How true but it did annoy me should do as Mom always said turn the other cheek but with these folks I’ve run
out of cheeks to turn :)
Yup, thanks to the intelligence from Club GITMO Interrogations…This time it was truly Bush’s doing.
At least his playing partners aren’t Hugo Chavez, Georege Soros, and Andy Stern.
Rimshot!
I am so sick of this POS. I don’t care if the Republicans run a dead cat against him, I’ll vote for the cat!
I’ll euthanize my cat in time for the campaign!
he’s not healthy now.
..still…
It’s not so much censorship of the truth (and it’s not just Keith, by the way)–it’s more that we have taste, a track record, appreciate humor and not hamhanded name calling and tired quotes, and well…I hate to say it..have pretty high standards and expectations over here.
You are at a great site for high expectations. Time for you to troll World Net Daily and give some welfare money you complain about to the Rev’und.
Weak.

Relying heavily on the Rogast poll taken just after X-mas, it is shown that our great commander in chief is polling at the highest since last December. This is truly evidence that his policies are taking hold and making a great impact. When you review the Docular Eminent papers that Congress recently reviewed, you will see that all this jostling of fervrent positions of policy redaction doesn’t mesh with those document. Slam dunk! you are clearly out of the loop Weak Star.
That was weak–as weak as FOAD–which I will not translate because it’s too unoriginal.
It’s still Bush’s fault.
And Nero fiddled while Rome burned.
Harry, come back to bed. I hate when you spend all day on the computer like the lazy slacker you are… oops, that’s Obama!!!
This piece of shit has played more golf than Eisenhower did in 2 terms! (just guessing, but feel confident). If I had an ‘easy button’, I’d end this world for ‘the one”s sake. God forgive us.
if I was wrong, apologize to him when you see him in hell.
I won’t play golf 90 times in my life. Up yours.
and he probably still sucks.
‘TheJerome’ said ‘…swings like an epileptic. What a girlyman’.
Well, have you ever noticed how girly he looks when he gets off the plane?
I laugh when he does the 9th grade shuffle up and down the airplane ramps/ stage steps. What a tool.
I thought that was his “vigorous I am not 50” gallop.
Have you seen him on his girl’s bike with his sissy helmet? What a sissy looking dweeb.
Thousands of years from now, they will be saying instead of fiddling while Rome burned…. Golfing while America went bankrupt
We need new cliches! Nicely done.
And for those keeping track, use 6 hours per round that includes travel time and warm up, that would equal 67.5 days using the standard 8 hour day. Good to see our affirmative action President treating the White House like a serious job.
In Your Face, America.
Hey, are you Kal’s brother? Did you have the supporting role in War Horse?
Let the good times roll.
Historians will look back on this President and just shake their head.
Historians will look back on MSM and just shake their head.
He can’t finish off our country when he’s using 100% of his brilliant mind and girly man strength while golfing…
Having a Great Time….hope it’s not too cold for you !
Created a nice holiday video just for you
Happy Something.
President Obama

Why is Dinglebarry spending quality time with a prostitution felon?
Perhaps cop killer Ayers wasn’t available?
Yeah–he’s out in the neighborhood.
You would think he has a decent game by now. But like everything else he touches, it stinks!
Wouldn’t it be great if all presidents looked at their job as it really is…..temporary…… and would work like a dog for the 4 or 8 years in office and then just chill the rest of the way? Instead you have all the pomp and circumstance….and these people just get caught up in the idea they are different then other human beings.
With the 1.2 Trillion he wants to borrow now, He’ll be able to play twice that amount on the taxpayer.
Just as a side note; Camp David has a ready staff, already cleared by security. It is a standing secure location. It is equipped to house the POTUS, family, friends, and aides and staffers. The technology is already present and ready, and it has vast and beautiful amenities. Finally, we pay for Camp David year round, I believe. So why does it set empty, while we pay an additional $4 million to send our pres on vacation?
Pretty good for a duffer – Recall that Bush gave up golf after 9/11.

Obama is such a disaster on every level it is incredible. More than 60% increase in debt limit in LESS than three years, credit downgrades, helping most of the mid east to turn into more Irans, sat on his lazy ass for two months while the gulf was fouled, hired 240,000 new Feds we can’t afford, armed Al Qaeda in Libya, extended the depression, lowest % of workforce participation in fifty years, continued housing nightmare, appointed affiramtive action jokes to the Supreme Court including Kagan who committed flagrant perjury at her confirmation hearings, Fast and furious, Solyandra and others, wasted trillions on “Stimulus” union payoffs, lied about shovel ready, Obamacare, and on and on, and thiks he is the fourth best President in history. Beyong despicable.
He should double the amount of time on the golf course, that way, he won’t F-up the country even more than he is.
This oval office occupier is worse than Carter.
Go ride off into the sunset with your hag of a wife.
Let’s hope he gets to play 365 rounds in 2013.
Friends in low places.
Does the inept one use a teleprompter to tell him which hole is next? The GREAT thing is come noon, on January 20, 2013 he can play all the golf he wants in Kenya while in retirement. One can just imagine the Chrissy Matthews of the world screeching his panties in a wad if this was Bush.
Concurrent with a readily anticipated headline: “Obama makes demand for an additional $1.2 Trillion in deficit spending authority.” ; one is forced to ask: ” When will it finally become evident to those who have been beguiled by the Kool-Aid, that this man-child is systematically and methodically destroying the economic viability of our Nation?” It is long past due for the ‘Rational Majority’ in America to openly rebel against the insidious Obamanite cancer that has infected our ‘Body Politic’; and, demand that the Congress of the United States curtail Obama’s malfeasance until he can be summarily ejected from the WH subsequent to this coming election. Greg Neubeck
Campaign bumper sticker “‘Fore’ more years. Can we afford it?”
What is the big deal, golf is like a chance to talk to friends and get ideas in the works, sometimes chit chat causes a break thru idea?
Would you have put this title up?
George Bush chops 90th cord of wood while in office?
Who killed Bin Laden? I say let the guy play golf, he did what George couldn’t do.
Neither did Obama it was our military Barry was golfing.
Obamarxist ‘gives’ workers 40 more bucks a week for 8 weeks, then jets of to his 4 million dollar vacation in Hawaii……..3 seperate airplane trips…. for Michelle and the kids, for Bo the first dog’s photo op at PetSmart, and for ObaMarxist, king of spending other people’s $$$$$$$
It truly is sickening, this hope and change we got………
