President Bush honored the sacrifice of soldiers fighting and dying in Iraq by giving up something he truly loves - golf.

...

Bush said he made the decision to quit the links after the August 2003 bombing on the UN headquarters in Iraq.

More likely he gave it up after "we must do everthing we can to stop these terrorist killers. Now watch this drive!" turned up in Fahrenheit 9/11.

I'd like to hear from VJers who have actually served. Do you think President Bush giving up golf adequately honors the sacrifice of our troops who have died in Iraq?

I think I'll give up washing my left nut to honor Bush giving up golf.

I just asked my friend who was in Iraq for 13 months at the beginning of the war and he said "that's bullsh*t". I think that means it isn't enough

Now if he would have said, I won't use Air Force One. I would have been impressed, but that's my Bush... I can't expect anything more...

There's no wrong in playing golf while other are out at play (battle). As much as how incompetent Bush is, he needs to relief stress just like everybody. Sometimes a solution will come if you just sit a moment underneath the apple tree. That solution was physics + calculus through Newton. See!

Bush needs that. But, if he chooses to not play golf it's his choice.

Golf shouldn't be the problem.
