[QUOTE="moreluck, post: 1184377, member: 1246"] Remember the days when the President took his duties as Commander-in-Chief [URL="http://cnsnews.com/news/article/flashback-george-w-bush-gives-golf-playing-golf-during-war-sends-wrong-message"]seriously[/URL]? [INDENT]… President George W. Bush, who routinely allowed journalists to accompany him on golf outings early in his presidency, told Politico in May 2008 that he decided to give up the game in August 2003 after a bomb attack on the United Nations headquarters in Baghdad that killed a top U.N. official. “I don’t want some mom whose son may have recently died to see the commander-in-chief playing golf,” Bush said. “I feel I owe it to the families to be in solidarity as best as I can with them.” “And I think playing golf during a war just sends the wrong message,” Bush said.
