Obama compares Gulf oil spil to 9/11 then hits the links for 4 hours

obama-golfGateway Pundit is one of the best conservative websites available, and definitely one of my favorites. Yet after posting yesterday how Obama compared the Gulf oil spill  to 9/11, then decided to go golf for another 4 hours, the Washington Post got offended by Hoft’s post.

Surely even the president deserves — and probably needs — some downtime, even now. Weeks spent clearing brush back at the ranch in Hyde Park might be pushing it. But an afternoon on the back nine doesn’t bother me. And whenever Obama does take a few hours off, there will always be enough going on in the world against which to juxtapose his leisure to enable the Jim Hofts of the Internet to take their cheap shots. It was unfair when Michael Moore did this to George W. Bush. And it’s unfair for Hoft to do it to Barack Obama.

Obama needs some downtime? That’s all he’s had since he’s set foot in office! He’s played more golf in his first 18 months in office than Bush played in 8 years, he’s had his lavish, tax payer funded White House parties nearly every other day. He’s flown off to Europe to apologize for America and beg for the Olympics to come to Chicago, etc.
