Apparently, you're OK with that....


Reason and logic are beyond Liberal's comprehension.

I mean, face it.....they voted for this stinker once and are dumb enough to repeat their mistake.

Albert Einstein said that insanity is repeating the same mistake over and over again expecting a different result.

Let's remind everyone again - it amounts to 2.88 hours per week - like, say, between 1:15 and 4 on a Saturday afternoon.

Y'all need to chill.

Wow - that's a whole 2.88 hrs a week on the golf course.

Exaggeration much?

You're actually begrudging the President one afternoon of golf a week?

I call this a huge - FAIL
And if you want to "bust" people for bad logic, you are no better. A round of golf usually takes more than 2.88 hours. More like 3-4.

Either way, most grown adults with families, kids, and a job that I know don't have anywhere near the time and or money to play golf once a week. The POTUS surely has more important things to do than most of my friends, family, and co-workers, no?

...and therefore it shows that he's spend even LESS time in meetings about the economy and jobs.

Do you not understand what an AVERAGE is?

Congratulations Ed, I didn't realize you worked along side the President because how else would you know he is off the clock at 4pm

Actually I am gonna declare this to be a "bash Obama" thread which seems to be common among the Cons, which I don't know why you don't just have one thread sticky that allows you guys to simply bash the president over pointless topics.

Alright, I am tapping out on this one, you guys have fun with your bashing, I know you will all do plenty of back patting in the process.

Wow, pretty dramatic. I've got a firm grip on averages and was just pointing out how the comment made no sense. Carry on with the drama though. Were DOOMED, DOOMED I tell 'ya!

Nothing to say about the fact that most reasonable people cant afford the time or money to play golf once a week though? Thats the point that actually matters.
