Obama hits the links to kick off Easter weekend

Obama golfing over Easter weekend

On Thursday the White House weighed in on the longstanding criticism from many regarding Augusta National’s men-only membership policy, while the club hosts the Masters Tournament this weekend.

“Well the president’s answer to this question is, ‘Yes,” Press Secretary Jay Carney said. “His personal opinion is women should be admitted.”

On that note, President Obama kicked off Easter weekend on Saturday with a trip to the golf course. The Hill reports:

“The president, a frequent golfer, left the White House shortly before 1 p.m. for a ride to what has become his home course at Andrews Air Force Base.

The weather is beautiful in the Washington D.C. area this weekend, sunny with temperatures in the low 60s.”

The White House Dossier notes that the trip is the president’s second golf outing of the year and ninety-fourth since Inauguration Day.

    The white side of Obama is in full effect. Next week, when he is hanging out with the blacks, he will be shooting dice.

    The jerk is sucking up to women because he views them as his only hope for reelection are the women voters. I am sure they are smarter than he believes they are. Look at this as a business. Would anybody in their right mind keep this idiot on the payroll after the piss poor job he has done? Only the obama Zealites still support him.

    memo to Barack:
    When you go on a spending spree two things happen. Our debt increases and you’re taking something away from someone else.

    We know you think it’s YOUR money, but newsflash, it’s ours. Not yours to waste.
