Bush Played Golf After He Said He Didn’t

President Bush told Mike Allen of the Politico that he gave up golf on August 19, 2003, it turns out that is not true.

…the Associated Press reported on Oct. 13, 2003, that he’d spent a “cool, breezy Columbus Day” playing “a round of golf with three long-time buddies.

“Bush played at Andrews Air Force Base with Clay Johnson, Office of Management and Budget deputy director, Richard Hauser, Department of Housing and Urban Development general counsel and another friend, Mike Wood.”

 William Wolfrum of worldgolf.com put it best:

“Bush has spent more time on vacation than any other president. . . . He’s never attended a slain soldier’s funeral. He’s spent time fishing and endlessly clearing brush on his ranch, and attending his daughter’s lavish wedding, among other things. But golf? Well, that would just send the wrong signal to the thousands killed in Iraq and Afghanistan and their families.”
