President Obama has already hit the links as much as President Bush did in over two years. | AP Close
President Barack Obama has only been in office for just over nine months, but he's already hit the links as much as President Bush did in over two years.
CBS' Mark Knoller — an unofficial do entarian and statistician of all things White House-related — wrote on his Twitter feed that, "Today - Obama ties Pres. Bush in the number of rounds of golf played in office: 24.
Took Bush 2 yrs & 10 months."
This news comes on the heels of today's news that Obama played golf with a woman — chief domestic policy adviser Melody Barnes — for the first time since taking office.

This is really important (tm)
wow.Sexy!
I wonder how many times Obama has gone hunting? I hope more times than Bush if not I will be monumentally disappointed.
Seeing how Bush was president for eight years and BHO will only be for four (if that), it won't be a good way to judge. BTW how many times did Bush go hunting? How many family European vacations with 16 teleprompters did Bush take in his eight years?
golf? lots of business done during golf.
dubya broke even St Ronnie's record for days of vacation.
And we know dubya worked even harder on vacation than he did at the WH.
best business deals i've ever made occurred while playing golf.
How many days has Obama spent clearing brush in Crawford?
or anywhere else, for that matter.
One man's day spent clearing brush is another's day on the links, I suppose.
dubya loving to clear brush was pure PR faux he-man BS, like St Ronnie riding horses and chopping wood, as dubya lives in a brushless Dallas enclave.
Repugs insult most people's intelligence with this BS, but it goes over the heads of their hard-core base.
Obsessed aren't we?..this is exaclty why the conservative party has become such a joke..instead of trying to make life easier for us the American people they are content with teleprompter jokes or looking at how many times this man golf's and prolly s and what type of paper he uses...btw I am sure he uses teleprompters to not come across as a total Idiot like Bush did...
Golf lol.
I bet you anything Cry havoc was laughing it up in his turtle neck and Rufus wainwright limited edition fanboy coffee mug as John Stewart would spoof Bush for not doing his job while golfing.
An utter hypocrite.
Now that obama is a worse offender, all these a-wads have short memories.
Is there something wrong with presidents playing golf?
There's something wrong with being coy.
I see you have no real objection to presidents playing golf. You object to me. Thanks for clearing that up.
How convenient.I see you have no real objection to presidents playing golf. You object to me. Thanks for clearing that up.
I wasn't a big complainer about what GWB did in his spare time, so I feel free to dismiss it. Obama golfing now and then is a total nonissue, just like Bush clearing brush.
we need more pirates, stat!
The issue was Bush said he gave up golf for the troops.
He didn't.
He did give up sweets, though.
Clearing brush is actually pretty relaxing compared to most other work one is subject to on their property.
Winter time, cool weather, wet outside, smell of burning brush = Good times
Golf lol. Then again, Obama is a good baller. Alright, he gets a Free Pass.
