Bush: Obama shouldn't be criticized for golf

[jakeXT]

Former President George W. Bush and President Barack Obama may not see eye-to-eye in the political sphere, but when it comes to golf, on this they can agree.

In an excerpt from the season finale of ''In Play with Jimmy Roberts,'' airing Tuesday night on Golf Channel, Bush says he understands the pressures of the White House and that playing golf is a good release.

''You know, I see our president criticized for playing golf. I don't – I think he ought to play golf,'' Bush says in the interview. ''Because I know what it's like to be in the bubble. And I know the pressures of the job. And to be able to get outside and play golf with some of your pals is important for the president. It does give you an outlet.''

1. Chimpy, I don't think that you knew the pressures of the Job as Obama did and does

First of all, Obama is his own president and not just an actor to deflect from the fact this his VP and his cabal are actually running the show.

Then again, I really respect you for this comment. I know the only reason you said it was to re-moderate the Bush brand in order to promote the coming bid of your brother, but it's still commendable on some level. Although I'm not sure that you'd steer clear of the current culture wars if you would of had a double-digit approval rating when leaving office.
