President Obama has reportedly played golf nine times since the start of the gulf oil spill. Do not count RedStateVT among those critical of the President. It is a 24 hour job and any president is entitled to downtime. As we would wish for any president, we hope his time away from the Oval Office makes him a better president.
Our judgment is subject to one condition: ever single journalist who ever criticized President George Bush for clearing the scrub at his ranch in Crawford, Texas must apologize. Fair is fair.
Friends and Foes
This, of course, is the Obama enigma: Who is this guy? What are his core beliefs? The president himself is no help on this score. When it comes to his own image, he has a tin ear. (Richard Cohen, Washington Post, 6/22/10)
For months now, Jeb Bush has been listening as President Obama blasts his older brother’s administration for the battered economy, budget deficits and even the lax oversight of oil wells. “It’s kind of like a kid coming to school saying, ‘The dog ate my homework,’ ” Mr. Bush, this state’s former governor, said over lunch last week at the Biltmore Hotel. “It’s childish. This is what children do until they mature. They don’t accept responsibility.” (NYT, 6/22/10)
