[QUOTE="moreluck, post: 1205398, member: 1246"] But it’s on government land. So why isn’t it shut down, like the Lake Mead homes or The Cliff House? Is the president’s golf more important than missing children or morale of our troops? Via Breitbart: [INDENT]One of Obama’s preferred golf courses, the course on Andrews Airforce Base remains open during the government shutdown. The grocery stores on the base, where troops get discounted groceries for their families are, however, closed. They will shop “at local stores that cost about 30 percent more, Lieutenant General Raymond Mason, the service’s deputy chief of staff for logistics, said yesterday at a House hearing.” The Andrews Air Force Base golf course is funded through user fees and that’s why it remains open, said Air Force Captain Lindy Singleton, chief of public affairs for the 11th Wing at Andrews. Obama hit the links last weekend for a round, on the eve of the possible shutdown. Last week the President played his 35th round of golf this year. ( Amber alert is shut down) Visitors to the Federal Amber Alert website today are now greeted with a message that the DOJ has shut the service down over a lack of funding.[/INDENT] [/QUOTE]
