If you asked the question, how stupid and incompetent of President does Obama have to be to have messed up the world so badly…your answer may have just appeared in the form of a man whose only care in the world is playing golf.
Syria, Ukraine, ISIS, wealth gap, poverty, gun violence…Obama does not give a crap. The neoliberal POTUS wants to golf…on US taxpayer’s dime. While Rome burns, Obama is screaming FORE!
Documents regarding Obama’s travel expenses surfaced in response to two Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests filed by the watchdog group Judicial Watch.
In a press release read on Thursday, Judicial Watch stated that…
