I will quit golf when I have to hit a driver on a par 3 from the senior tees... and no sooner. Couldn't he just quit the war instead?

So, who in the hell cares?

He does need some time off! So, he takes a few, so what?

Most of you have done little in your life but belong!

So, just what have have have YOU done?

Oh, maybe piss and moan!

Say it! You want to!

He's the commander-in-chief, that means he's the highest ranking military officer, so he shows people respect....and judge other lest ye be judged my friend, what have you done?

nittanyalum nor Strang, this goes for both of you?

I am amazed about how you can say so many things and have actually done so little!

Now, if you wish to tell all of us your brilient exploits, I would love to hear about them!

Oh, lets hear about spelling too!

OMG! Saddness is on the uprise and I am impressed!

FUNNY, FUNNY!
You are correct, I haven't done a lot, but one thing I have done is shown people respect. And, you want to know who does care, yes that Marine in the casket draped with the flag that he shed blood protecting has a mother, and I guarantee you she cares. Bush was an integral part of the decision making process to send a young man probably not much unlike myself into harms way, and as respect for mothers and families of these men, he doesn't play golf. And you have the balls to ask who cares? Whether you support the war or not, those troops are putting their ass on the line, so you can irritate the hell out of the people on GC, and you ask who the hell cares?

ETA: BRILLIANT, INTERESTING, SADNESS

I am not really a big Bush fan, but I understand why he is doing it. It makes me think about Lent (where you give up something to strengthen your faith before Easter). Although, it is not a big sacrifice in comparison to the sons/daughters/mothers/fathers etc. who have given their lives for our freedom...I commend him for giving respect where it is due.

It quite simply doesn't matter. Many liberals don't care about whether Bush is genuine or not, they care only about diminishing him as both a politician and a human being. The great majority of this country agrees with them, but they're far from satisfied with that.
