As conflict continued in Iraq, President Barack Obama waged a different kind of war during his vacation at Martha's Vineyard - on the golf course.
Obama was escorted to the Farm Neck Golf Club, in Oak Bluffs, Massachusetts, by a huge motorcade, which included a SWAT team and two snipers who peered out of an open trunk.
Sporting a United States Secret Service baseball cap, Obama seemed reasonably relaxed despite the hefty protection, laughing and chatting with his golfing buddies in between holes. Obama fled Washington for his family's familiar vacation spot yesterday for a two-week summer break.

The shooters get to sweat 7 pounds off each in the trunk so no one’s golf buzz gets harshed.

That’s at least two bags visible...Obama is left handed and a lot of those clubs in view are right handed....

I honestly believe the security is a little over blown. The more they insulate these leaders the worse they become.
I understand that he is POTUS. I just think they over do the protection. Too much expense for anyone. No one is indispensable.

Sporting a United States Secret Service baseball cap... I read that as dumb-a** forgot head protection and made one of his detail go without so he wouldn't overheat his pea brain.

I’m fine with all the personnel. I just don’t think that they should have any guns. Guns are bad. Obama said so.

I think the office of the POTUS is over done. It wasn’t intended for the president to be so important. Need to cut back on the perks.

One bag's for that guy, I can't remember his name, who accompanies obozo on some of his trips and is the one who reportedly supplies obozo with his drugs. And the other member of his traveling group is Reggie Love, his true love/toy boy.

The president also appears to be a lover of lumber... "Why WOOD they include that comment?", asks Larry Sinclair...
