Barack Obama golfs a lot, PGA producer

Few seem to begrudge President Obama the occasional golf outing (presidents need to unwind, right?). But John Kim, a producer for PGA.com (the PGA Tour runs the primary men's professional golf tours in North America), took to Twitter on Tuesday night to ding POTUS for excessive golfing.

In response to learning of Obama's 50-plus rounds of golf since taking office, Kim wrote, "that's more than me! But then again, my job is ... golf. Wait, that doesn't seem right."

And later: "the old adage is: those who work in golf never get to play. Guess I need to run for president to hit the links!"

If Kim is only playing two rounds of golf a month and it's his job, then he should be fired. A professional should play about 50-60 rounds of golf a year (12-15 events, four rounds each... Plus practice rounds). If he's making it out to be his job, he should be somewhere over that number he set, unless he's trolling for trolls that would pick up on his posts. As he's a producer at a website, it's not really his job, and we just have another bitter anti-Obama guy spouting off about nothing. It sholdn't really be a producer's job to golf.

If you're trying to suggest Obama spends too much time out of the office, I fail to see where a three-four hour outing in between meetings twice a month is outrageous. That's less than what some golf addicts do on a regular basis out here. For some, a round a week is the norm... That'd be about 50 rounds a year if you do the math. It's not like trips to the ranch, with the occasional visit from a cabinet member.
