Why George W. Bush gave up golf
"I don't want some mum whose son may have recently died to see the Commander-in-Chief playing golf," Mr Bush said in an interview with Yahoo and Politico.com.

"I feel I owe it to the families to be as - to be in solidarity as best as I can with them. And I think playing golf during a war just sends the wrong signal," he said.

Mr Bush said his last round of golf was in August 2003 when he was informed that a truck bomb had wrecked the UN headquarters in Baghdad, killing 22 people, including UN envoy Sergio Vieira de Mello.

"They pulled me off the golf course and I said 'it's just not worth it any more to do'," Mr Bush said.

Why doesn't he just go ahead and ask why don't the starving people in Burma eat some cake?

If we all give up something we love, we all show solidarity with those dying instead of you know solving the actual problem.  :american

I bet he is really good at golf, too. Not Kim Jong Il 14 holes-in-one in his first game good, but I bet he has a single-digit handicap.

I guess all Americans, even the President, have to make sacrifices during these trying times.

I heard Bill Clinton is a sub 10 handicap, or he cheats.  Based on what I know about him I'd say it's a bit of both.
