” Over The Cliff Easy ” coming right up!
” Welcome to the House Of Egg On Our Face”
” Who says we can’t get anything done?”
“The perfect food huh? Wait till we get through with it.”
I love golf because it’s about bad lies, going as low as you can go, and blaming everything but yourself for making mistakes.
This is a great place to hang out and hide while the rest of the Democrats do my dirty work,uh..ha,ha…ha,ha!
How ironic…My performance is way below par everywhere except on the golf course.
Don’t even have to shoot straight, playing with Republicans…
I’m going to give you a little advice. There’s a force in the universe that makes things happen. And all you have to do is get in touch with it, stop thinking, let things happen, and be the ball. Gunga Galunga! How about a Fresca?
“I may be Commander-in Chief of the most powerful nation in the world but this game is the only chance I get to drive.”
This is my kind of Tee Party.
Sequester this! Hey, as a matter of fact, I did…
This sums up my entire presidency – one big swing and a miss!
I know America, the only thing that has improved these past 4 years is my swing.
Sequestration is the congressional Republican/Tea Party’s idea of change. I’m for Mitt Romney’s idea for change by ending some tax loopholes, but I’ll be more specific than he was.
This sequester is like congressional flatulence, either way “things” are gonna get cut.
Waterboy! Waterboy! Senator Rubio, please hand me one of those little water bottles and I’ll show you how it’s done.
They named it golf because all the other four-letter words were taken.
Playing golf with Butch Harmon and Tiger Woods on a private course. I kinda feel like a Republican!
Well at least we know this is one cut I will not be making.
A birdie, an eagle, a Tiger…Trump would say I’m playing in Kenya!
You say Dubya gave up golf after he started the Iraq war? I wonder what he gave up when the U.S. economy started going into the worst recession since the Great Depression! Oh yea, his presidential approval rating.
Hey, who swapped out my tee for the flat top Mitch McConnell filibuster gag tee?
Heads up, Boehner! I love teeing off after those guys!
The secret to my game are all the “gimmees”.
As we all know… golf and Congress are puzzles without an answer.
Remember this one, “I call upon all nations to do everything they can to stop these terrorist killers. Now watch this drive.” That was a good one. Now watch this drive!
Now watch this drive. The drone has been programmed to intercept my ball, and then deliver a hole-in-one every time. I love this technology!
Republicans in Congress constantly have very good scores when we play golf together. But it’s only because their math is always so very bad.
Tiger out drove me, but I bet have a better lie.
FORE (+16) score and 9+ years ago our fathers…
F O R E!…. He’s a jolly good fellow… which nobody can deny! :)
There’s a fanatic out there with a web site which lists all 115 rounds of golf I’ve played since I took office in 2009. Wow, I didn’t realize I only averaged about one round of golf every two weeks.
Eric Cantor released the House calendar for the 113th Congress. In 2013, the House will only be in session for about 126 days. So what the heck, I’m playing golf!
The only reason I did not yell four , is because I just seen John Boehner walking on the Fairway.
Eliminating tax loopholes have made liars out of more Republicans than golf.
Tiger said I was way better than Dubya.
Yes Tiger, these shorts did belong to Marx.
Golf is like politics…your best lie is right down the middle!
Politics is like golf…best to stay right down the middle!
Biden tee me up another can.
Did I fire my right side okay, Tiger?…or was it my left side??
“I think I’ll replace this divot with Mitt Romney’s toupee.”
What, me worry?
FORE score and seven years ago…
“I think I’ll replace this divot with Rick Perry’s toupee.”
Gosh… I can’t stop pushing it to the left.
Fore more years.
FORE…more years!
“If I could use this wood as good as Woods, I certainly would.”
Hey Tiger, That drive was almost as long as yours. I just imagined I was swinging at John Boehner.
Eat your heart out Tiger
Drive for show; eat rubber chicken for dough.
Wish I could learn to spin the ball like I can spin the truth.
After that lesson the Tiger i’am a much better “Swinger”!!
“This could be the best way to get the swing votes.”
“I’ll take the PGA over the NRA any day of the week.”
The secret is thinking of the ball as Republican.
I now can blame Tiger Woods for my high
handicap.
Whew! It almost went over the cliff!
Line up the whole house of representatives…I am in the groove and teeing off on them all.
Fore! Yeah, as in “four” more years.
Swingin’ through the pain,
Swingin’ through the pain,
What a hideous feelin’,
It’s crappy again…
(Sung to the tune of Singin’ in the Rain)
i hit it further with boehner’s picture on my ball
DANG! If Romney had won, I could be doing THIS for the next 4 years! What was I thinking?
Another great shot! It’s going way, way, way left!
“Take that John Boener!”
Maybe things will get better if I start swinging from the right!
I always do better when I paint John Boehner’s face on the ball
“Fore score and four more years to go…
eh Tiger?”
“More fish food.”
Tiger said it’s a good thing the election is over, because after seeing my swing, he said I definitely would lose the swing voters.
Whoops! ” Think I need a chiropractor.”
“D-E-B-T!…, I mean F-O-R-E!!”
Fore…score!!!
“Benghazi? $16 trillion? Brian Terry? Fast and Furious? …. Don’t bother me with those insignificant things. Just let me get back to <> the business of this country. … Hmm, I wonder where I should take a vacation next week.”
Uh-oh, went too far left.
You say…Nero fiddled while Rome did what??????
Sequester this.
FOUR! more years.
FORE!!! Yup, four more years, four more years.
The Republicans wish they had my drive.
Too bad the Republicans can’t get a grip on things.
As President,I command that I get a mulligan on every hole!
Eat your heart out Tiger!
Not too shabby, and I only play 5 days a week!
I don’t understand it! The Press was more interested in Tiger Woods. I’m the President and he’s just a golfer!
This is my interpretation of Boehner’s performance as leader of the House. Balls going every which way except into the holes!
Tiger who?
Fore Boehner!
Mu instructors advice is for me to keep my day job.Here I seem to lose the grip on things.
Darn the ball is heading RIGHT..Too many unplayable lies are over there.
At least, this is the one thing I am a “straight shooter” at !
