Obama Golfs with ESPN Hosts as US Evacuates Embassy in Libya

Obama Golfs with ESPN Hosts as US Evacuates Embassy in Libya

On Saturday, hours after the U.S. embassy in Libya was being evacuated and a day after meeting with Central American presidents to address the border crisis, President Barack Obama golfed with ESPN “Pardon the Interruption” hosts Mike Wilbon and Tony Kornheiser at Congressional Golf Club in Bethesda, Maryland.

Obama has golfed with Messrs. Wilbon and Kornheiser in recent outings, and this is reportedly his first round at the exclusive golf course. 

This week, former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin said that Obama golfs and fundraises during crises because he knows he is “in over his head” as the country’s chief executive.

Obama aide Marvin Nicholson, a frequent companion, rounded out the foursome.
