Obama Should have Stayed on the Golf Course

It seems that when Obama gets out in public, it’s not all unicorns, rainbows and fainting fans anymore.   He’s experienced some audience dissatisfaction over the Easter weekend.  At Port of Miami, he gave a speech which received some negative response.   On the following Saturday, Obama appeared with his good buddy Reggie, at  an NCAA final 8 playoff, after some time on the golf course.   He was booed vigorously when the cameras focused on his visage and pasted him up on the monitors.Obama and his date at ncaa games 2013

Per an article at Breitbart,  a former Bush Whitehouse spokesman believes that the press was cut off throughout most of Obama’s outing so that he might not appear out of touch with the circumstances of the rest of Americans.  Also he was supposedly not wanting to offend female supporters by making a public splash of his time spent with Tiger Woods on the golf course, (and Reggie Love),  instead of the expected vacation with his family, which was sent off to Colorado on a ski trip.

Obama to Lose “Body Man” Reggie Love

Reggie Love, Obama ‘body man,’ to leave White House by year’s end – The Washington Post.

Reggie Love will be leaving his post as Obama’s personal assistant by the end of the year.   The Politico does not mention where he is going or why he is leaving, just that he’s planning to do so.

Of course, such transparency and openness about Obama’s personal assistant  would not be a thing that the media expects from the inner circles of the White House.  It is amazing even to hear that Reggie plans to leave.
