A coalition of golf lovers are asking Republicans to stop making so many jokes about President Barack Obama’s love for the golf course, saying such comments are bad for the golf industry.
But could politics be at play too?
The Daily Caller has learned that Tony Podesta, a well-known Democratic lobbyist with strong ties to the Obama White House, is behind the We Are Golf coalition of golfing organizations that has sent letters to Republicans such as Florida Sen. Marco Rubio asking them to cut out the criticism of Obama’s golfing habits.
Melissa Low, a spokeswoman for the Club Managers Association of America, confirmed to TheDC on Thursday that Podesta was hired to help with the coalition. Other groups supporting the coalition include the PGA of America, the Golf Course Superintendents Association of America and the National Golf Course Association of America.

The rads cherry pck the Constitution daily to find twisted excerpts to use against America...turn about is fair play, and we know that Obama is all about being “fairrrrrrrrrrrr”, don’t we?
Little thin-skinned Barry wasn’t elected as “Golfer-In-Chief”, and I dare say he probably wouldn’t enjoy hitting that little ball if it wasn’t “white”,
America burns while fiddles around on the golf course and our embassies burn while he parties with Beyonce.
Yet, we’re not supposed to criticize for idling through a presidency, we’re supposed to be in awe of Dear Leader.
I guess he gets a trophy for “participating”, like the Nobel prize, or voting “present”.
The full golf bag is why the chair is empty, but to the unwashed (and “untaxed”) 47-percent, he is to be worshiped for just “being there”.
What’s B. Hussein’s handicap? Everything?
Man Country
The _resident wants the ridicule to stop, because it is very effective.
Ok stop but on November 7th because this has nothing to do with politics right
