Has Obama played more golf or gone to more fundraisers while president?

Update:

Obama out did Bush by number of fundraisers attended in March:

Update 2:

Double the fundraising of each of his two predecessors:

    He has played more Golf but his Fundraisers have cost the most money for taxpayers, last week he spent 20 million of taxpayer funds to raise one million for a Democrat candidate.

    Don't know about the fundraisers, but I read that Obama played his 200th round of golf last Sunday since he became President.

  • Everyone criticizes the President when he talks time off or is out of DC. With Obama I am just jealous that he gets in more golf than me.

    If you added up all the instances when Obama played golf AND attended fund raisers, you would probably get half the number of times Bush "cleared brush" on his ranch.

    He's certainly gone on more vacations then a president should. Far more than anyone should, let alone a man who is supposed to be running our country.

    More than any other US president? No, more than some and less than others. It is really not a big deal.. Congress is on vacation more than they are on the job..

    He is going to try to conduct a cabinet meeting this afternoon. This should be funny to watch. Obama has no idea how to run a meeting.
