Back From Vacation, Bammy Goes Golfing

I guess the poor, overworked President in Training Pants really does need a vacation from his vacation. We noted last week he'd be fleeing to Camp David tomorrow, but who knew his first order of business upon returning from vacation would be to go golfing?

With a week on Martha's Vineyard behind him, President Barack Obama was back in Washington on Monday and raring to go -- to the golf course.

The president, in khaki pants and a blue polo shirt, headed to the private Army Navy Country Club for an afternoon round with U.S. Trade Representative Ron Kirk, press office staffer Ben Finkenbinder, and trip director Marvin Nicholson. That health care debate? He'll get to it next week.

"I mean, if he hits Marvin with a golf ball, I guess he'd become more active in health care," White House press secretary Robert Gibbs told reporters.

It was hard to miss the Obama family's glum faces when they returned Sunday evening from their Massachusetts vacation. Walking across the South Lawn toward the White House from Marine One, the usually genial foursome looked uncommonly downcast.

Aw, what a shame. I guess destroying our economy is taking a toll.

Looks like another light day before he hosts a Ramadan dinner tonight. Then off on vacation again!

And he wonders why his approval ratings continue to plummet at an alarming pace.
