What is it that President Obama did in nine months that took Bush two whole years to do?
Play golf.
According to CBS correspondent Mark Knoller, a self-proclaimed documentarian and amateur statistician of White House doings, reporting via Twitter, "Today – Obama ties Pres. Bush in the number of rounds of golf played in office: 24.
"Took Bush 2 yrs & 10 months."
This news comes today as Obama made headlines by going nine rounds with his first ever woman opponent since taking office — chief domestic policy adviser Melody Barnes.
Meanwhile in Kabul, helicopter crashes claimed the lives of 14 more Americans in Afghanistan – 11 field troops and three drug agents.
The deaths were announced as President Obama prepares to meet his national security team for a sixth full-scale conference on the future of what some critics are already calling "Obama’s Viet-Nam".
