Hey, if they can call Bush a liar on just about anything, turn-about is fair play.

Huffington Post... what a bunch of left-wing hate-blather.
Not just Huff-post:

For the first time, Bush revealed a personal way in which he has tried to acknowledge the sacrifice of soldiers and their families.
“I don't want some mom whose son may have recently died to see the commander in chief playing golf,” he said. “I feel I owe it to the families to be in solidarity as best as I can with them. And I think playing golf during a war just sends the wrong signal.”

update from Bush: I quit golf over Iraq war - Yahoo! News
The US president traced his decision to the August 19, 2003 bombing of UN headquarters in Baghdad, which killed the world body's top official in Iraq, Sergio Vieira de Mello.
Bush's last round of golf as president dates back to October 13, 2003, according to meticulous records kept by CBS news.
The point is, the utter failure pretends to have empathy -- if you call giving up golf anywhere near an equivalent experience as losing a loved one -- and can't even keep his lie straight. This from a person who, after helping create so many disabled vets (and martyrs), promptly forgot about them except for a few photo ops.
